$vbulletin->userinfo['field11'] Doesn't Work

[myHybridcar.com]

I was under the impression that custom profile fields would populate within $vbulletin->userinfo, yet a print_r does not show any of my custom fields.

How can I make $vbulletin->userinfo['field11'] functional? Thanks!

What page are you trying to use it on? It may be called something else there.

Well, you can always try:

$bbuserinfo['field11']

Sometimes that's defined.

Well, it's actually in a separate script but I've included global.php and $vbulletin is populated. I did a search for "field11" and the value but it wasn't anywhere to be found.

Also, $bbuserinfo wasn't populated.

I wouldn't say that!

$vbulletin->userinfo is always in the scope

maybe the problem is, that your session isn't actual, so that you're a guest and guests don't have userfields


try this:

PHP Code:

if (!$vbulletin->userinfo)
{
    standard_error('not logged in');
}
else
{
    die(print_r($vbulletin->userinfo));
} 


So you'll see if your logged in and if yes, you'll see the whole userinfo array. Search for field11.
Maybe it's empty

No, no. $vbulletin->userinfo is populated just fine. I'm logged in. The problem is that the custom fields just aren't included in $vbulletin-userinfo.

Are ou sure $vbulletin is global at that point? Maybe you are using the wrong term to get the field.

Yes, it's global. Again, it's fully populated. $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] works.

You might have a broken plugin. It could be causing your $vbulletin object to terminate early with an error, which causes the userinfo to be incomplete.

Try disabling your mods one at a time and refresh your print_r page until your userinfo is complete.

Be sure to clear your cache between refreshes...

Firefox: Hold SHIFT and press the refresh button on the toolbar
Internet Explorer: Hold CTRL and press the refresh button on the toolbar

I disabled the plugin system and got the same result. However, perhaps this will shed light on the issue?

[profilefield] => Array

[hidden] => , '' AS field11
[required] => Array

Hmm actually you're right, $vbulletin->userinfo is not working correctly. I'll look into it and check back.

Got it, thanks for your help!
