FYI I've found some code to help with the multiple selection profile bug, but not an automated way to do it. It'd have to be customized by the end user.

Q: (sorry if this is dumb quesiont...non programmer here). Does using this save the queries of items/postbit elements if you put them in the menu dropdown?

eg:
no. of queries if the items were displayed without the dropdown... 5
no. of queries for same items once you put them into the dropdown.... 1

is that correct?

Your instructions don't state what to do with the xml file. I added the hook statement, but I am not sure what to do next.

I also am not sure where to change the vB Phrase [group_memberships] to the title I want for the quadrant. Is it in one of the templates?

Thanks.

Dunno. There's only one query for all of the profile fields in my hack, so I don't know what you're comparing it to.


Jericho2004: Please hit Install.

Do you mean extra member fields.xml? It's a plugin, upload it like any other plugin.

You change the phrase in the Phrase Manager within the AdminCP.

Sorry, I hit install. Everything works except it is not pulling the data from the cp into the public profile in that bottom right quadrant. Thanks for the help.

You manually edited the member page, correct? What code is where the group membership code was?

Yes I changed the title of the quadrant and replaced the code in the memberinfo template. And, the data from the cp is not showing up. It is probably something I overlooked, but I have gone through it a few times now. Thanks.

PM me all the code from your member page template I guess.

This looks like a very good hack, one which I would be interested in using, only slightly modified..

Would it be possible for me to edit the hack so that it displays the results of my own custom query, rather than info from the control panel?

My idea is based around the fact I run an interactive story site that intregrates with my forum. What I'm looking to do is query the database for each user to see if they have made any posts on the story site, and have links to them listed under their username, as well as on their member profile page.

How easy/hard would something like this be to achieve? Thank you.

This is strange. The dropdown only shows up for admins and mods on my site and not for regular members. Anyone know what would cause that?
