Add profile field via a product?
 
Hello all,

I am creating a product that requires an additional profile field. How can I add this as part the product .xml file so that it gets added automatically when installing?

Thanks

I have a product that creates a profile field upon installation, and the install code is:

PHP Code:
$vbulletin->db->query_write("
    INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "profilefield
        (
            maxlength, size, type, data, def, searchable, memberlist, form
        )
    VALUES
        (
            5, 5, 'radio', 'a:2:{i:0;s:3:\"Yes\";i:1;s:2:\"No\";}', 1, 1, 1, 5
        )
");

$profiledata = $vbulletin->db->query_read("
    SELECT MAX(profilefieldid) AS profilefieldid
    FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "profilefield
");

$thisrow = $db->fetch_array($profiledata);

$pid = $thisrow['profilefieldid'];

$vbulletin->db->query_write("
    UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "profilefield
    SET displayorder = profilefieldid
    WHERE profilefieldid = last_insert_id()
");

$vbulletin->db->query_write("
    INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "phrase
        (
            varname, fieldname, text, product
        )
    VALUES
        (
            'field" . $pid . "_title', 'cprofilefield', 'Abbreviations/Acronyms', 'vbulletin'
        ),
        (
            'field" . $pid . "_desc', 'cprofilefield', 'Set whether you wish for abbreviations/acronyms to be explained using a tooltip in the areas designated by the administrators', 'vbulletin'
        )
");

$vbulletin->db->query_write("
    ALTER TABLE`" . TABLE_PREFIX . "userfield`
        ADD field" . $pid . " MEDIUMTEXT
"); 
The uninstall code is:

PHP Code:
function get_fieldnum()
{
    global $vbulletin, $db;
    $fielddata = $vbulletin->db->query_read("
        SELECT phrase.*
        FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "phrase AS phrase
        WHERE text = 'Abbreviations/Acronyms'
    ");

    $thisfield = $db->fetch_array($fielddata);

    return preg_replace("/[^0-9]/","",$thisfield['varname']);
}

$fieldnum = get_fieldnum();
$fieldstr = 'field' . $fieldnum;

$vbulletin->db->query_write("
    DELETE FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "profilefield
    WHERE profilefieldid = " . $fieldnum
);

$vbulletin->db->query_write("
    DELETE FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "phrase
    WHERE varname LIKE '" . $fieldstr . "%'
");

$vbulletin->db->query_write("
    ALTER TABLE`" . TABLE_PREFIX . "userfield`
        DROP COLUMN " . $fieldstr
); 
Of course, you will have to alter this to meet your specific needs. :)

Thank you Mark!

Mark,

Since you are dynamically naming the profile field name, is there a way I can write it back out somewhere so my PHP code can read the field name? I could store it in another database field but that might incur too much overhead. But if I save it on the filesystem, then the file needs to have write permissions?
