1. Make a profile field
Profile field type = Single-line text box
Title: Myspace account
Description: Type your Myspace ID.
You can leave the rest to default.

**Note down the number of the field! Example: field16. You need to replace the X in the next code with the number!**


2. Template changes - In postbit_lecacy & Postbit

Find:

<div>$post[icqicon] $post[aimicon] $post[msnicon] $post[yahooicon] $post[skypeicon]

After ad:

<!-- Myspace start -->
<if condition="$post[fieldX]"><a href="http://www.myspace.com/$post[fieldx]" alt="View my myspace" target="_blank">
<img src="images/misc/myspace.gif" border="0"></a>
</if>
<!-- Myspace end -->

however, i too would really like to know how to integrate this into the instant message section in edit profile.

that would make it look OEM sort of speak.

dont know if this hasbeen mentioned but the icon wont appear if members dont fill out a msn addy etc ...........in other words it dosnt create the field on its own, but as soon as you add a msn addy it appears etc...................just a thought

[DieselMinded]

Thats the way it should be , If it showed up all the time then members would be clicking dead Myspace buttons and would quit even trying to use it , I dont want the icon there for members who dont have a myspace ,

The Only Tweak would be to show the icon when viewing profile or atleast hyperlink the number

very nice, most all of my members have a myspace acct that they seem to always want to advertise, this makes it so much easier for them
