How to...

1. Add a minumum character input that a user has to add when filling in the profile field: Location?

2. Update all users profile field: Location-> to blank, no info?

3. Make the profile field: Location, only show in the postbit if info was entered. If nothing is entered, it won't display.

Thanks in advance!

open functions.php find:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($post[aim]!="") {

            eval("\$post[aimicon] = \"".gettemplate("aim")."\";");

        } else {

            $post[aim]="";

below it add:

                        $location="Location: $post[field2]<br>";

for 1:
in register.php it will work somehow similar, but i'll show you how to do in member.php :)

find that:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $varname="field$profilefield[profilefieldid]";

    if ($profilefield[required] and $$varname=="")

    {

      eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate("error_requiredfieldmissing")."\");");

      exit;

    }

and change to:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $varname="field$profilefield[profilefieldid]";

    if (($profilefield[required] and $$varname=="") or ($profilefieldid == 2 and $$varname != "" and strlen($$varname)<5))

    {

      eval("standarderror(\"".gettemplate("error_requiredfieldmissing")."\");");

      exit;

    }

that will disallow all inputs smaller than lenght of 5 except no input :)

Unless its a required field, no?

Wouldn't this just give them the required field message missing jargon if they inputed less than 5 characters? How would they know it was because they entered less characters than required?

it was jsut the fast way ;)

you can of course create a new errortemplate and change the one if clause into too if needed :)

But if it were a required field to fill in, they wouldn't be able to leave it blank.

PHP Code:

I'm assuming you mean by no input leaving the filed empty?

if it's a required field, it shouldn't be able to left blank right?
