Please consult with me before making an add on to this hack. As it is my work and such, the add ons that you are trying to make for it may be in the next release and/or premium version.

What does this hack require?
Template Edits: 4
Products Imported: 1

5 Easy Steps
Step 1. Import the following product: product-extra_threadfields.xml
Step 2. Upload the files in the upload folder.
Step 3. Do the edits located below
Step 4. Edit the newly added options in admincp as you please
Step 5. Enjoy the hack.

F.A.Q
Q. How do i get extra fields to show in the "edit post" page?
A. This is only available in the premium version.

Q. If i do not want the fields to be shown automatically, can i do it manually?
A. You can manually show fields in threads or posts by using $thread[fieldx] in the postbit or showthread template. Replace x with the ID of the field you want. To find the ID of the field go to admincp >> Extra Threadfields >> Extra Fields Manager, and hover over a field. The number after fieldid = will be the id of your field.

Q. I updated all of the options, i installed it perfectly, i did all edits, and still the options are not showing when i go to add a new thread. What do i do?
A. It is believed that you have a hack interfering with this one. Take away the edit that you did for putting $extrathreadfields inside the newthread template, and do this instead:

Search for:
Code:
        <!-- / subject field -->
Add below:
Code:
        <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="fieldset">$extrathreadfields</table>
Enjoy the hack.

Hi gio~logist, instead creating an independant field to let user fill out, can we have option it to pull off fields from the member profile? Like birthday, locations & stuff?

I want to use a forum to post reviews, the members who post in this forum need to fill out some basic info that already filled out when he/she registered. That's why I need such option!

Thanks for a great hack gio~logist!

What do you mean by "put fields in profile"?

I'm not sure I understand. The problem is, I enable users only to edit their threads on our site for 1 week. VB only lets you set this on the entire site, not per subforum/forum. I would like to allow users to edit your "Extra Threadfields" for a longer period of time (or forever). I wouldn't mind if they could also edit their thread as long is it was on a specified forum/subforum. How exactly would I do that? By the way -- haven't installed it yet but will once I get this part figured out.

Thank You!

My problem: Vbulletin lets you specify how long a thread/post can be edited, but it only does it on a global basis (not per forum). This causes real problems with for sale/wanted or other types of forums. So if these new fields could be edited even when the thread isn't editable, that could fix the problem. Or perhaps the fields can have an edit time-limit switch or setting themselves (just as threads/posts do).
thank you

Editing extra fields comes hand in hand with editing the thread.

So does anyone know of any hack/mod or code changes I could apply that would let me control thread editing of a specific forum?

Thanks

I'm sorry for such confusion, I actually had some custom profile fields and wanted to use this hack to pull and display them in the thread!

That wouldn't work just because of the fact that it will flood the profile with new fields and such. Also, there is no organized way to do this really.

I know this is late and all but didn't see your reply :P

I personally have no use for this, that's why I didn't state I clicked install. Just mentioning you've done a good job with it.
