Sort memberlist by location

[dknelson]

Is there a mod out there that allows you to sort the memberlist by location or a custom field? I've created a dropdown menu for people to select their state or province but it is not sortable from the members list. There was a mod for 3.8 that called custom profile field sorting or something like that. I've looked at it but it doesn't appear that it would work for VB4.

If there's not a mod, does anybody know how you would manually edit the memberslist template to add it to a particular field?

What's the link to the vB3 version?

Here's an experiment I tried:
hook location: "memberlist_fetch", in memberlist.php, line 596

if($_GET['sortbyloc'] == 'sort') {
	$sqlsort = 'userfield.field10';
}

My location field is "field10"

so add "&sortbyloc=sort" to the memberlist URL and I think it'll work.

This is lousy programming but it gets you started

This is the one I used for 3.8.

I'm certainly not a coder. I don't completely understand what you are saying. Are you talking about two different edits? Thanks. You say that you experimented with it, did it work?
