How to work out a formula from custom fields and display in postbit
 

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone knows how to do a formula from the vales of certain custome profile fields and display it in the post bit.

I know will display the vale of the filed in the post bit. What I need to do is field7 (divided by) field6 (muliply by) 100 and display the result in the post bit.

Is this even possible?

Thanks :)

You will need to do the calculation in a plugin.

Any idea how this is done? I'm a n00b at this sort of thing lol

You can't do it in a template unless you figure a way to make it work in the if conditional, but its not supposed to be there :p

Best bet would be to make a plugin in one of the postbit hooks, postbit_display_complete? I think or something, can't remember off the top of my head.

EDIT: Whoops forgot to refresh.

You can try maybe:

Is anyone able to help with this? :)

They did?

They did what?

Help. If you are still having problems, you need to post what they are.

We can't help unless we know what problems you are having.

Well the whole thing, I have no idea how to create a plugin or how the formula should be layed out, and thern getting it to display on the postbit.

Create a plugin on the postbit_display_start hook and add the code posted by Opserty:

Then edit your postbit template and insert $percentage where you want it displayed.
