updating profile errors...
 

ok i added a new item to the update profile form.. its to show users MSN name on getinfo (template)

now everytime a user goes to his/her edit profile page and adds there MSN everything works fine.. then they get to see it on there profile page..

Next time they visit there edit profile page the text area that they last typed there MSN addy into is empty and they have to add it every time they go into there edit profile page....

why isnt this storing any information..

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanky

Is it a hack or a user profile field you have added they enter MSN into?

well kinda both...

edited the member.php like so:

Replaced:

aim='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."',msn=' ".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($msn))."',yahoo='".a ddslashes(htmlspecialchars($yahoo))."'

With:

aim='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."',msn=' ".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($msn))."',yahoo='".a ddslashes(htmlspecialchars($yahoo))."',ID='".addsl ashes(htmlspecialchars($id))."'

also ran this query:

ALTER TABLE user ADD id varchar(70) NOT NULL;

then added this to the "modifyprofile" Template:

<tr bgcolor="#1C5780"> <td><b><normalfont>ID:</normalfont></b></td>
<td><normalfont><input type="text" class="bginput" name="id" value="$userinfo[id]" size="30" maxlength="75"></normalfont></td>
</tr>

ID shows a users image that they choose by the way.

sorted it now :)
