All user profile fields are automatically available in the postbit template.

You will either need to modify postbit or postbit_legacy depending on what you are using. The variables are available through the following VB variable:

{vb:raw post.field22} where 22 would be whatever the field of your choosing is.


To write a conditional statement to test for the existence of a field then you would write something along the line of:

<vb:if condition = "$post['field22']">
<span class="profile_description">Favourite Colour: </span>
<span class="profile_field">{vb:raw post.field22}</span>
</vb:if>

Obviously you can use whatever tags you wish inside the conditional loop and the CSS styles I chose I just examples, they don't exist in VB by default.

VB4 seems to have a predefined style using <dd> and <dt> tags. If you look closely into the postbit_legacy template you will see that descriptions of the profile fields are wrapped in <dd> tags and the actual data is wrapped in <dt> tags. This seems to automatically give you a nice spaced seperation such as for post count, blog count etc.
