This is great add-on. I was just looking for something like this.

Hopefully it works on 3.7.x too.

You're Back Milad :D Very Nice

I asume you mean March, 24 2009? ;-)

Thanks to all of you,
I'll post more about how to use the new features.
Regards

Is this version also works in 3.7.X ??

Good product, thank you

installed

very good work Milad i like it :)

nice and important mod

Thanks to all of you.

I haven't tried it on 3.7 but I assume it will works, though some location may be not introduced in that version.

Also I've added 3.8.0 as a minimum requirement, you have to remove that.

Regards

Great mod and installed but how can I change this:

DVD neXt COPY Version: DVD neXt COPY Ultimate
Machinist or DVD43 or AnyDVD: Machinist, AnyDVD HD

to this:

DVD neXt COPY Version: DVD neXt COPY Ultimate
Machinist or DVD43 or AnyDVD: Machinist, AnyDVD HD

or whatever colors I choose?

To show non-profile-field content, we have to do it in to steps explained in the following photo:

This feature is awesome....just upload and thats it, exactly what i've been looking for...Thanks:up:

I am no coder nor I know the basics of CSS and such. The ones I want to show are indeed a profile field. Here's a screen shot.

Milad is a great coder, by great I mean the best.

Hello, this can't be done right now.

Hello thanks for this great mod ever.

can you make option to have profile picture in showthread/postbit as well?
if its really major change, can you tell me hook plugin to fetch the profile picture from filestorage?
thank you

I'm sorry, this mod isn't supposed to do that!

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '/', expecting ']' in /home/forumname/public_html/forums/includes/class_postbit.php(294) : eval()'d code(131) : eval()'d code on line 1

any idea what I am doing wrong ... this only comes up when I put a value under:
Profile Fields To Show In Postbit

As an example in each box wanted you add the word: field1, field2 etc....

Let's see your settings!

What about tweaking this mod to remove the fielset question to just showing the answer can this be done? AKA

Default:

DVD neXt COPY Version: DVD neXt COPY Ultimate
Machinist or DVD43 or AnyDVD: Machinist, AnyDVD HD

Tweaked

DVD neXt COPY Ultimate
AnyDVD HD

Is this possible later? Or tweak the current mod?

thx Milad :)

however when we upgrade this hack from the 3.7.x version we should re-set the fields ...

Great add-on!! This is so easy to use, and it saves me a lot of annoying template editing.. thank you!!

It's possible. Later!

Suggestion: Option to only show this profile field for registered users.

Installed! Many thanks for the plugin!

Is there really no way to change the color? I'm a semi- newbie to this, and I can't figure out how to do it. Right now my text is black, but I added this product so I could put a first name field that'll show up - I'd like that whole field, both the question and answer, to be say, blue instead of black. Is that possible at all?

You can add style class and add it to exyra css for the style.

This is an awesome hack. I was wondering if, using its custom area, I could somehow make it display all threads the user posted in certain boards. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hmm...I see the stuff on the 'custom' setting but I still cannot see how to do what I want. I have something like this in Postbit:

Favorites: horse, car, barn

All I want to do is make 'Favorites' bold. Could the author provide an example for what looks like a marvelous hack :)

This is what I was looking for and works great is there a way that the custom fields can be a url thats clickable in the post_bit? I have been trying to figure this out for a couple of days and I know I am close. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

so it would be like this in the post_bit:

michelle
wishlist (and have that be a link to there list? )

Figured it out :)
I used the custom field and then :
<if condition="$post['field11']"><div><a href='$post[field11]'></> Wishlist </div></a></if>

Hello Milad ! Thank a lot for this mod. Good work ;)

Note: you can't save profile settings if you've installed this hack : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=208213

Perfect *Installed*

Hey guys, everything I try does not work, the fields don't show up.

Is there anything I should be editing beforehand (see attached screenshots).

Thanks!!

Nice script, very useful indeed.

However when I try and use the custom field I keep getting the following error.

Attached is the admn area.

Use this in the Custom Content:
