https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=269

EVERYONE: PLEASE BE CRYSTAL CLEAR IN WHAT ISSUES YOU ARE HAVING WITH THIS MOD IF YOU ARE USING IT IN 3.7.x! A 3.7.x version is already in the works.

------------------------------------------------------------

You can find the 3.5.x version of this hack here.

This hack will add an extra page to the User CP. This area can be used for extra profile fields that for one reason or another you would like to split from the main list.

Personally, I use this page for PC specs, but it can also be used for other specs as well (e.g. cars). I have the specs in a dropdown list under the user title in each user's post, as well as in their profile page, but that's another hack You'll see a link to it under Add-Ons to the right.

Here's some examples of how I use this hack (with the Add-On hack, Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts):

NEW fields will of course get NEW IDs, however the old fields are still there, still marked with the extra options code. IF they're not showing in admin, you haven't done all of the steps in the instructions, specifically a MANUAL edit of a PHP file.

How would I do that and still have working fields?

be more SPECIFIC. Do you mean splitting up the edit box, or splitting up the fields in the member page, or splitting up the fields in the dropdown?

I want to add my own INPUT fields on the extra page. so members can fill them in and submit them, But I want to be able to split them up and put them on certain parts of the page.

Also I'd like to split up input boxes, drop downs for the extra page.

[MissKalunji]

Fantastic addon!! Is it possible to show one of extra profile page if a use have selected a specific type of prfile field.

e.g. one user is buyer and another user is seller. Now based on selection a different set of fields show up in the extra profiles field.

Thanks for sharing this one.

Regards

I have created a extra profile field page and it works fine, updating my info and all but what i would like to do is be able to change the below code to allow me to change the location of my fields?

<form action="profile.php" method="post">

<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[dbsessionhash]" />

<input type="hidden" name="do" value="updateextra" />

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<tr>

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

</tr>

<tr>

 <td class="panelsurround" align="center">

 <div class="panel">

  <div style="width:$stylevar[formwidth_usercp]" align="$stylevar[left]">

$customfields[extra]



  </div>

 </div>

  <div style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px">

  <input type="submit" class="button" value="$vbphrase[save_changes]" accesskey="s" />

  <input type="reset" class="button" value="$vbphrase[reset_fields]" accesskey="r" />

 </div>

  </td>

</tr>

</table>

</form>

I know

$customfields[extra]

is what imports my fields that I have selected but what would be the code so that i can manually input my desired code into the location that i want it in? ie Like i would like field10 and field12 on the same line instead of below each other and field14 before field2. If that makes any since.

Wired, thanks for the hack again as I've re-installed it but is there a way to get rid of the redirect page when you later edit the extra infos? I really hate redirects.

I just noticed this flaw myself.:cry: In AdminCP, in Profile Field Manager I had to set Which page displays this option? back to Edit Profile otherwise they would not show up in my Members Listing.:dead:

Are others experiencing this same thing?

I run a Recumbent Bicycling Board and this allows us to have a page with Riders Information (mileage to date, longest ride, etc) which is GREAT. Thanxx for the Add-on!

You might want to try this hack for doing that https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=123619
