Extra Profile Fields Page
This is the 3.5.x version of Zachery's hack by the same name. (linkage)
3.6.0 version: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123253 This hack will add an extra page to the User CP. This area can be used for extra profile fields that for one reason or another you would like to split from the main list. Personally, I use this page for PC specs, but it can also be used for other specs as well (e.g. cars). I have the specs in a dropdown list under the user title in each user's post, as well as in their profile page, but that's another hack :) You can see my 3.0.x hack for that here, and the 3.5.x hack for it here. Here's some examples of how I use this hack (with the Add-On hack, Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts): http://www.houseofhelp.com/v2/showthread.php?t=39826 http://www.houseofhelp.com/v2/member.php?u=15 NOTE: The above 2 links show the results of another hack I did that's based upon this one. In otherwords, this hack doesn't add dropdowns in posts, and doesn't hack the member page to display the extra options in a new area. For that, install the Add-On hack, Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts. # of plugin hooks: 1 # of php page edits: 3 (or 4) # of new templates: 1 # of template edits: 1 # of new phrases: 2 The "successfully saved" and extra option search are not tested, but they should both work. Don't forget to hit INSTALL!. |

Link to 3.6.0 version: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123253 |
I will report back when I get home and try it
|
I think this was just what I was looking for :)
Ummmm... Pics please. :) |
little screens please
|
great, exactly what i need :)
|
seems there are some things missing: $vbphrase[edit_system_specs] at
least. Edit: must be: $vbphrase[edit_extra_options] profile.php?do=extra doesnt list the extra fields |
hack works, other than the fact that vB seems to have a real nasty time saving a new template with the name "extra". Other than that, some template cleanups "system specs"?? and its all set.
Thanks a bunch! |
Bah, I thought I may have missed something. I'll fix it in a couple of min. Going to put new template name back to page, and fix the vB phrases.
|
Ok, fixed. Sorry about that, I was sort of reverse engineering it from what I did to my site.

I have installed but I don't see the link "edit system spec".
I didn't understant this in the installation file: Quote:
OOPS I'm tired, that's right. But the true problem is when I click on my "edit extra options" button, I have a white page like this :( http://www.image-dream.com/up/1129226848-screen.jpg Thanks for your help |

Yes , in fact my new template was called "Page", I have modified for "page" and I get that now:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/ Now, I search how I can add fields :ermm: |
Is it possible to put a link in this fields?

AdminCP -> User Profile Fields -> Add New User Profile Field -> (select Profile Field Type) -> Where it says "Display Page" (at the bottom), it asks "Which page displays this option?" Select Options: Extra Options, or Options: ($vbphrase[extra_options]) As for the page being blank, that is normal. Once you add new profile fields into the above area (or edit an existing one and move it there), it should show up. Try it with one of the default profile fields (just remember to move it back later so as not to confuse your member base). |
Thanks it works now.
But is it possible to screen this fields on user profile like this for example: http://www.image-dream.com/up/112928...anstitre-2.jpg |

would like to have that put alltogether, great work btw. |
gael11: Do you mean like this?
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/...chmentid=34450 pipin: me too :) Now that I guess I've taken over the 3.5.0 version of Zachary's hack, I could. I'll try to do the 3.5.0 version of my profile hack this weekend. Most of the code didn't change, except for some PHP code being slightly changed, and moved into a hook. Setting up the AdminCP stuff for both hacks will be the next big hurdle. |

Ramsesx: Sorry, missed your post. It's just a modification of how profile fields are presented and edited, but their properties haven't changed, In otherwords, I didn't hack that part. I have been thinking about that, unfortunately I can see lots of ways to abuse it, so I'm not going to hack profile permissions just yet. Search the forums though, maybe someone else already did. |
Ok big thanks for your answers. I haven't understand.
|
Great addon... thanks for getting this out! I just wish this could be done without code hacks... hah!
If you're having trouble showing the custom fields on user's profiles try doing this as well: in member.php find PHP Code:

Update: didn't get a chance to work on update of other hack this weekend, mondo busy @ work. I'm gonna like that next paycheck though :)

Hi!
i am very interested in your modification! i am runnning a software testing forum at www.elite-squad.net. Its about the free HTPC software Media Portal. Our members are reporting bugs in the forum, therefor they have to use a system specification template in their posts. they have to post it every time when they start a new bugreport. thats realy borthering me as admin. ::example Bug Report:: it would be realy realy great if you could change your mod a bit to fit your needs. adding the system specs in the usercp is great! when posting a reply or starting a new thread a option to add the system specs would realy help us! but it has to be added as text of the message! if the systemspecification would change after i have posted a bugreport the information would get useless. Or would it be possible that this user specific hardware setup appears automatically when starting a new topic in a specific forum? This is the template we are using. Windows Version: your windows version incl. service packs CPU Type: manufacturer and speed Memory: amount and type Motherboard Chipset: manufacturer and model Video Card: manufacturer and model Video Card Driver: driver version you used for testing Video Render Type: VMR9 or Overlay Video Codec Type & Version: video codec you used for testing Audio Codec Type & Version: audio codec you used for testing TV Card: type of TV card, manufacturer and model TV Card Type: software / hardware / DVB TV Card Driver: driver version you used for testing Satelite/CableTV Provider: i.e. Astra 19.2?E |

and for hardware or software help forums it would be nice too as an option to include system spec at top of the postings. :classic: |
Quote:
Pretty sure it's doable. A conditional trigger could flip the postbit area where you make posts from a blank one to one with the PC specs (as of that posting). |

Check out www.houseofhelp.com if you want to see the post spec dropdown in action. BTW Avalon, u know about www.htpcnews.com ? Great HTPC site. |
2.0.2
Nothing to worry about, just removed some code from the instructions that's for my other hack! Here's the snippet I removed: Code:
==================================== |
Screw looking at code, I finished the other hack:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98753 I kinda forgot I had already done 95% of the documentation, just had to clean it up a bit. Please post any questions / comments about it in the new thread. |

I have been talking with KirbyDE. He is doing the modification for me. I think it will be release here too. |
No problemo. Tell him to check out the add-on hack, it may help him out.
|
Simplifying the extra fields entry form in the back end is my next goal, and then multiple pages after that. Of course, my other hack will be similarly upgraded to deal with these changes.

Hello!
This change of the php files, must this be? Is it not to be done possibly this about a Plugin or product without changing the PHPs? cu Deta |
Nope. There are no plugin locations near this area, and to place an articifial hook at the same locations would defeat the purpose, as they are 1 line hacks.
Also, if you have installed this hack, please hit the install button, thanks! |

This is very bad! I would like to want to change no PHPs on the new 3.5. Up to now to realize another solution this gabs then always, nevertheless. I will not install the minced meat! Although it is a first-class thing. cu Deta |
If you think it's bad, blame Jelsoft for not placing hooks at every single line. Some hacks just can't be done with only hooks.
|
Great hack, works perfectly ... just one thing I can't find
Where do I edit the "Extra Info Page" text in the navbar breadcrumbs? |
