Country Flag
 

Well, i looked all over the forums but couldn't find this countryflag mod; however, i found it on vb.org instead. I wonder why did awesome hack ain't officially released here for vb members. :)

All credits go to SmartGnome for orginal hack and AJR, Pingu and Stasik who made the hack for vb 2.2.x.

Nice mod, installed.

For the people with spanish forums, I have modified the flags_list file to reflect the Spanish name of the countries and the images for that. I attach the flag_list and the images if you want it to be in spanish.

Just what I was looking for ! thanks ! :D

A question though, is it a must to set Display Page: Thread Viewing. Can it be on Edit Profile instead ?

same hre, some of my members are going crazy, looking for it...

cinq, could put it anywhere you want.

as for running the UPDATE `userfield` SET `fieldX` = 'Undisclosed'; query. It's unnecessary, IMO. You could have an empty field in the first line and set it as default. Then using <if condition="$post[fieldX]"> flag code here </if> would give what you want.

ok, but what would i do to put it on the Edit Profile area?

Change this option:
Display Page: Edit Profile

I went al litte further and created a gif called "Undisclosed.gif" and placed it in the flags folder on the server. I then removed the IF statement from the postbit so that it would show the undisclosed gif file as the default. The undisclosed gif is basically a small image reminding the user to update their profile :-)

Here you go-

So, all I have to do is remove that IF statement and this will work? Forgive me I am a n00b.
