Adminbit Question
 

where its says $ user [userid ] how can I substitute this for a $ userinfo [ field x ] and get the information to show up?

Ok I sorta figured out my own answer my next question would be this instead of the one previous. where it says [ location ] for the user how do i define the fields in the addtional fields area. Better yet what template are the default field names like location, intrests etc on.

See what I did was edit a few templates to get to this point now the problem is getting the information there that I want.

The additonal information like in the mod I undertook relies on the additonal profile fields you make yourself for the user. Ive tried simply putting in $ userinfo [ field 1 ] but it doesnt work.

Look at the attached image and youll see what Im looking for. Instead of the "username" I want to show a field called "Main" for the username currently there. Then I want to add in other fields as you can tell. If I cant get a direct link using the profile field parameters is there a way to have them included? I have papi installed also so is there a way use papi to do what Im wanting? Please any insight would be greatly appreciated.

By the way this is the "groups" template area Im editing.

anyone?

How do I include the "commands" so That I can use the $userinfo[field x] includes on the groups area of the forums. Please look at the pic. I have been able to use [user] [location] etc but not the field paramters HELP PLEASE :(

i have no clue...thats why im not responding....ask filbie - he night know

i belive it requires hacking showgroups.php or some code in the phpinclude template to show custom feilds on that page.

Hmm I dont think it requires hacking any php code. Papi helps bypass alot of that. What I was thinking is finding out exactly which template defines the default [user][username][location] fields and changing / redefining them. If I can do that I can post to here what the php is. OR I can just add the [field x] parameters.

shameless bump for a reply

well doesnt matter i abandoned the idea. no way to figure it out

Editing bits almost always requires hacking.
