Custom Field in Showgroups
 

Hi, I've been having a problem putting a custom profile field in the showgroups, I know its possible because I did it a few months ago, unfortunately I lost data on my server and this modification was one of the casualties.

I have the new cells put in the table through the templates and I'm trying to call the content like this:

I know by default this shouldn't work, what I did last time was put a single line in one of the php docs that required or included another php file or template but I'm at a loss to remember which it was.

(Note: I only lost the php files so the database is still original, I know this code worked!)

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Since you are doing something on the showgroups.php page, have you looked for a query in that file and tried to add your field to it?

Yes, I believe it is showgroups.php that has to be edited, and I remember it being really simple, something to the effect of modifying:

Problem is I can't remember what has to be added if its a template or a call to include a php doc or even if its a db call, but it was one simple line or word that I added somewhere in showgroups.php, yes.

--------------- Added [DATE]1256756860[/DATE] at [TIME]1256756860[/TIME] ---------------

ok, I'm sure this Isn't how I did it last time but it works.... If anyone is trying to do the same thing:

in showgroups.php

Find:
Below it add: (Replace Fieldxxx and = X with your variable name and the field ID


FIND 2 instances of:
(and again, replace fieldxxx with your variable name and the X in fieldX with your field ID.
Below both add:
Tested and works with the code in the first post :)
(Running VB 3.8.4 Patch Level 1)

That isn't a query. That is just the array of templates to be cached.

Didn't say it was (?)
Like I said, It isn't the way I did it last time, but as long as it works :)
May even help others ;)
