I love this hack, only thing is on my profiles I pull some of the customfields out ($userinfo[field6]) to make the layout look better; and on those that I pull out - this hack doesn't work for -- other than that, nicely done.

Thx anyway but can you give people a text or zip file please ?

Another nice hack :)
But it has a slight problem: The URL misses the sessionhash.

Are you on a short tour of all hacks to raise standards and correct bugs? Or are you stalking me? ;)

I think I've just added it... please cast your eye over it as I haven't yet tested the small change I just made... which was to add $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] to the generated URL's (they get generated in the PHP file and not the template, so I don't use the shorter $session['sessionurl']).

Erm, none of both - I am just working on the next Version of my board :)

Cool.

I did much the same for mine.

The only thing I'm still missing is a good version of Who Quoted Me, but I think we'll be hearing about that later today.

And I've yet to get off my backside and create an AJAX based tagging system... something I actually really need.

Anyhow... did the session thing like right to you? As I said... haven't tested it, just looks right.

This is a very good idea for a hack. Whenever you create associations between members, you improve the forum experience. Extra queries or not, I'd use it if it was a plug-in. Hint-hint

i already implemented this however whats the code change if a user clicks on a link in the profile and shows that word not just only in that field, but in all fields... for example... lets say, field 13 was "What's your favorite food?", then when someone clicks on field 13 answer which is "anything good", it wont just look for the same answer in field 13, but in all field tables from 1 thru the field tables u have to see if any answer was "anything good" ....

I need this functionality on my website because of the profile i want to create.

Andreas, how could I go about requesting that the 'searchable' column gets added to the vBulletin query that I modify above?

I'd like to do the plugin version so that this is a no brainer, but I'm a performance freak and don't want to add the additional query it would require without modifying that query.

I like this hack - Im going to install it on vb webmaster
