This hack is mod is working fine on vb 3.7 pl1.

But I like to place gender in a seperate row. If I add another column according to these instructions, the colors of all columns are not correct any more. I mean the alternating table cells (first col dark color, second col light color, third col dark color, etc).

I have used this code in memberlist_resultsbit:

<if condition="$userinfo[field5] AND exec_switch_bg()"><td class="$bgclass"><div class="smallfont"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/$userinfo[field5].gif" alt="$userinfo[field5]" /></div></td>
</if>
<if condition="$userinfo[field6] AND exec_switch_bg()"><td class="$bgclass"><div class="smallfont"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/$userinfo[field6].png" alt="$userinfo[field6]" /></div></td>
</if>

Besides the fact that the gender column (field5) has the wrong color (but columns to the right are alternating), there are also problems with empty fields. If a user has not filled in field5 or field6, that row will have up to 2 columns less that the other rows.

You can avoid missing columns by not using the if condition, but the alternating color problem remains. Hard coding the color (<td class="alt1"> and <td class="alt2") does not help either, because you will have the alternating color problem on the other custom profile fields.

Do you have any solution for this problem?

Problem fixed!

I solved the problem. I also changed the order of other columns and that caused the problem. To avoid missing column cells when a user did not fill in that field, I just added <if condition="exec_switch_bg()"> to the code. For the gender field it looks like this:

<if condition="exec_switch_bg()"><td class="$bgclass"><div class="smallfont"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/$userinfo[field5].png" alt="$userinfo[field5]" /></div></td>
</if>

Obviously you need to change the memberlist header, too. I added the following to memberlist template:

<td class="thead" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[gender]</td>
