PhotoPost Random Image Option

I have made an add-on that will display random images from PhotoPost on the forums home page, seen here: http://www.modernengineuity.com/forums/index.php

What I want to do is make this an option in the user CP. I have already added the option to the user control panel and made a separate forumhome template.

What I need help with is modifying index.php to display this template depending on whether or not the user has chosen this option.

Thanks.

Add a field fo the user table. Then make your radio buttons in the modifyoptions template. And use your name attributes value to update the field to 1 for yes and 0 to no :)

Thanks for the reply Mist. That's exactly what I have done. I wasn't completely sure of that so it's good to know.

What I need to do now, and what is giving me problems, is use this to display or not display the random image template on the forums home.

Does that make sense?

PHP Code:


		
			
if($bbuserinfo['userfield']==1) // i.e. it's set to yes

{

    // your stuff that happens when its set to yes goes here

}

Well, tried a few things, but it didn't work.

Here is what I'm using to display the thumbnails now

PHP Code:


		
			
 // Thumbnail includer hack

    ob_start();

    require("../test.php");

    $thumbnails = ob_get_contents();

    ob_end_clean();

 // Thumbnail includer hack end

So is this right to make it optional?

PHP Code:


		
			
if($bbuserinfo['showphoto']==1) // i.e. it's set to yes

{

    // Thumbnail includer hack

    ob_start();

    require("../test.php");

    $thumbnails = ob_get_contents();

    ob_end_clean();

    // Thumbnail includer hack end

}

And where should it go?

Sorry for all the questions.

No idea where you want to put it but that's how the code should be :)

Thanks for all the help so far. I figured out how to make it work that way. The only problem is that I had the table for the thumbnails hardcoded in the forumhomes template. So when the option was set to no it just left an empty table.

I made a completely separate template for this, but I haven't had any luck calling the template. I'm thinking you have to set the variable for the template in index.php and then add the variable to the forumshome template where I want it to show up, right?

Any idea how to do this?

After taking a break from it, I got it working. I guess I had just been at it for too long before, because I figured it out pretty quickly this time around. If anyone is interested in using it, PM me.
