NEW fields will of course get NEW IDs, however the old fields are still there, still marked with the extra options code. IF they're not showing in admin, you haven't done all of the steps in the instructions, specifically a MANUAL edit of a PHP file.


be more SPECIFIC. Do you mean splitting up the edit box, or splitting up the fields in the member page, or splitting up the fields in the dropdown?

I want to add my own INPUT fields on the extra page. so members can fill them in and submit them, But I want to be able to split them up and put them on certain parts of the page.

Also I'd like to split up input boxes, drop downs for the extra page.

Hi Wired,

I have the extra fields set to members list and searchable however they do not appear in the search members?advanced search page options nor in the members list. Can you help me?

ok i did everything said here (i have multiple one)

But its not showing the title of the profile field...

what am i forgetting?

Fantastic addon!! Is it possible to show one of extra profile page if a use have selected a specific type of prfile field.

e.g. one user is buyer and another user is seller. Now based on selection a different set of fields show up in the extra profiles field.

Thanks for sharing this one.

Regards

I have created a extra profile field page and it works fine, updating my info and all but what i would like to do is be able to change the below code to allow me to change the location of my fields?



I know is what imports my fields that I have selected but what would be the code so that i can manually input my desired code into the location that i want it in? ie Like i would like field10 and field12 on the same line instead of below each other and field14 before field2. If that makes any since.

Wired, thanks for the hack again as I've re-installed it but is there a way to get rid of the redirect page when you later edit the extra infos? I really hate redirects.

I just noticed this flaw myself.:cry: In AdminCP, in Profile Field Manager I had to set Which page displays this option? back to Edit Profile otherwise they would not show up in my Members Listing.:dead:

Are others experiencing this same thing?

I run a Recumbent Bicycling Board and this allows us to have a page with Riders Information (mileage to date, longest ride, etc) which is GREAT. Thanxx for the Add-on!

You might want to try this hack for doing that https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123619

i am not understanding this part at all

====================================

The following code adds an extra area to:

User Profile Fields -> User Profile Field Manager

When a new profile field is added, in the Display Page area, select Options: Extra Options (or whatever you placed in the extra_options vB Phrase)

// *** open admincp/profilefield.php

find

"$vbphrase[options]: $vbphrase[other]"

replace with

"$vbphrase[options]: $vbphrase[other]",
"$vbphrase[options]: $vbphrase[extra_options]"

find

5 => "$vbphrase[options]: $vbphrase[other]",
add under

6 => "$vbphrase[options]: $vbphrase[extra_options]",

// *** save and close admincp/profilefield.php

// *** open includes/functions_user.php

find

case 5:
$customfields['other'] .= $tempcustom;
break;
add under

case 6:
$customfields['extra'] .= $tempcustom;
break;

// *** save and close includes/functions_user.php

====================================

Great idea! I have a health forum and now we can have a page with members health info.

Does this work on 3.6.4?

I was wondering what template I go to to edit the way this Extra Info Page looks and the title of it and all that?

I've been wondering how the hell to do this, so thank you!

Sorry maybe this is a stupid question but I'm having problems.
I'm new to modifying vBulletin so I'm learning.
When I go to user cp to edit it, it's blank.
I've attached an image.
Sorry if I'm a noob.

**edit*
Figured out more..I think something about postbit?
I'm earning vBulletin as I go along.
If it has anything to do with postbit can someone please tell me what needs to be changed?
Thanks.

Thorlax...

You need to edit the USERCP_SHELL template... I think. All you need to do is look at the coding for the menu and then, depending on how the coding is, add a link to the new page (which I believe would be /profile.php?do=extra. If you show me the coding for that template I could edit it in for you?

I actually finally got the words to show up, but its just a blank page now.
Sorry, this was my first addon, I'm not as stupid anymore but still I don't remember what I even did with this one...

Heres a template we're using it with..Its the USERCP_SHELL

What's a blank page? The whole thing or just when you click on it? I created a new style on my board and used that code that you gave me and it seems to be working fine now.

The only thing that I can suggest is, if you're not going to have an arcade... copy the code I have below to get rid of the ugly gray space between the 'Edit Email & Password' link and the 'Edit Profile' link.

If you let me know what you mean by 'its just a blank page' then perhaps I can help you out a bit more?

why using this instead of creating custom fields using vb built system ?

Hi,

I'm installing this but I don't know where admincp/profilefield.php or includes/functions_user.php is for this part:

Hello.

Open these files onto your PC and use your file editor to search for e.g. $vbphrase[options]: $vbphrase[other]

then follow the instructions you quoted in your thread post. When done, re-upload these 2 files (admincp/profilefield.php and includes/functions_user.php)

HTH

Alright since no one really responded to my question, I'm going to post it again. :)

How can you edit the template of this page? It doesn't really look all that great on my board, so I need to make it look better. Which template is it?

OK I'm confused.

Could someone tell me (in simple terms) #1 how to change the title of "Extra Edit Options" to my own title and #2 how to add my own fields. I know it's user error but I would love to implement this and I'm not grasping the vbphrase concept. I already have 3 frustrating hours into this and no luck.:confused:

Thanks

Great mod by the way just what my site needs

I'm really sorry but I still don't get it.

I don't know where those files are.

Kadi

profilefield.php is in your admin folder

functions_user.php is in your includes folder

Sorry to be a pain but I have it all installed and I'm at a standstill. "Edit Extra Options" shows up and when I click on it it goes to an "Extra Options" page which has "save changes" and "reset fields" buttons but as far as entering my own fields I'm lost. Please can you explain a little bit more specifically on how to do this ?

I've read through this thread several times and and this mod is still kicking my butt.:confused:

Thanks

Dman...

To add your own profile fields to the new page, you need to EDIT the fields you want there (or create a new one) and at the bottom of that page, it has a section called "Display Page". You need to change the drop down menu to say this: "Options: Extra Options". The address to the page you created is "/profile.php?do=extra". You can easily create a link to this page in the User CP by editing the usercp_shell template.

...Now... how do I edit the template???

I see the light now:banana:

I'll have to take this up in the morning but thanks for the help and don't be surprised if I do ask that proverbial question:

...Now... how do I edit the template???

I know how to edit templates but I don't know if I specifically know how to do this edit,tomorrow will tell..:confused:

Thanks you've been a big help:cool:

No problem, I love makin' myself feel smart so thank you for that opportunity, haha

Well, have ya figured it out? Any help would be so very greatly appreciated!

*Argh* ;-)

Yesterday we started the migration from 3.5.4 to current 3.6.4. I also updateded this Mod and I still have a problem which makes me crazy :confused:

In UserCP the link to the extra fields page is available, and a user is able to edit/save all the definied fields.

But I cannot find a way how to show the content of the fields inside the MEMBERINFO.

Using 3.5.4, we had a reference like

<td>$customfields2</td>

inside the template

Using this now in 3.6.4 shows absolutly nothing.

So I changed it to

<td>$customfields[extra]</td>

but all what's showing is a single "<"

It's a long time ago when we installed this mod into 3.5.4, so I cannot remember what we did that time.....

Maybe somebody is able to help me to show the content of those fields inside the member's profile (readable for everybody who has permissions to access the profile....)

Thanks in advance,

Frank

Any ideas on what's happened to Wired1? Says he's not been online since back in NOV06.

The bug I referred to above is serious enough that if I set the page that displays this option to "Extra Edit Options" then NONE of my Custom Profile Fields will show up in the Member List. By none, I'm not just referring to the ones used in this MOD, but I mean it prevents ALL Custom Data Fields from showing up in the members listing.

As such, I had to revert back to using the Edit Profile page in order to keep my members listing working correctly. However doing so means that one can no longer access the Custom Data Fields for this MOD. Neither to edit, or even see them.:disappointed:

I've gotten this mod working without a hitch. Now I just need to tailor the wording.

In the options window, it lists this as 'Edit Extra Options' and the title of the window as 'Extra Options'.

I'd like to change this to 'Edit CarPC Specs' and 'CarPC Specs'.

Based on the screen shots Wired1 posted, it's $vbphrase[edit_extra_options] and $vbphrase[extra_options]...however...I don't know what do to beyond that. I've changed the first to: $vbphrase[edit_carpc_specs] and $vbphrase[CarPC_Specs] only to find that the page dissapears when I refresh. So I gather that's not right...so where do I find where [edit_extra_options] and [extra_options] are determined?

got it!

wonderful mod!

What am I doing wrong? I installed this and I see the "Edit Extra Options" in my User CP, but I can't see the extra profile fields when VIEWING my profile. Can anyone help me out on this?

I also have the "Friends and Buddies" modification installed. Could this be the reason my extra profile fields aren't viewable, except for when editing the profile?

I just checked my member list and see that I'm experiencing the same thing you experienced. I'm removing this mod. It's a great concept, but it's definitely not working for me.

Thank you Wired1 for this nice add-on.

I wish to save timestamp along with userfield. I want to display date when these userfield were edited. How will I achieve this?

Thank you!!!

Is there anyway to do this without the core file edit? I am sure there must be.

I'm back. I'm responding to ones that I don't think have gotten answered yet, although the bast majority of these have already been answered in various forms in this thread, as well as the previous thread.


Those are exactly what they state they are... VBPHRASES.

ADMINCP -> Languages & Phrases -> Search in Phrases

look for "extra_options". Edit how you like. In order to change the phrase variables to "$vbphrase[CarPC_Specs]", you first have to CREATE them.


No. Read the first post again, CAREFULLY. There is an ADDON that does this.


Read the 3.5.x hack instructions. There's BETA search code in there (which is really just vB's search code w/ one minor change). Search for the new code in 3.6.x (they changed like 1 minor thing in it IIRC), and it should work fine. A proper way to do this would involve a heavy rewrite, which I simply don't have the time for (hence why I haven't been around much).



That's outside the scope of this hack.


uummmm..... NO. There are hacks similar to it, that don't require core hacks, but they require SQL edits, which is not something this hack needs. Neither are perfect, choose your poison.

but not showing Extra Options why? no space!!!!!!!

i have vBulletin V3.6.4

some help?

Can you be more specific?
