Force Current Members To Fill Out Required Profile Field · **Released**: 06-08-2005

So you add a new required profile field, and members who join afterwards are forced to fill out the field, but you want your current members to fill out that field too. Well unless your current members go edit their profile, the new field sits and waits for them to take action. This mod will force your current members to fill out the field by prompting them for action before allowing them to return to normal site use. Here are some further details:

Install as a vB 3.5.0 product.

When I click the download link, I just get a page with code. Shouldn't I be getting an xml file?

sorry for asking a dumb question here but what do I have to do to make an already-existing field required? like the MSN field for example?

@bobs409: try right click, save as, or left click, save to disk.

@TYorke: this mod is for ACP -> User Profile Fields where both 'Field Required' and 'Field Editable by User' are set to the 'Yes' option.

If you haven't figured this out yet. Right click on the file and save target as.
