In this mod, restriction refers to the Profile Intro block display on the member profile page.

I'm hoping the attached screen show will explain my thinking better.

The user profile I provided as an example is JUST a normal user. I had hope that a normal users would not be able to use this or would not be able to share this on their profile page.

Does this support Embedded Video and Picture BBCode as well?

Thanks

Doesn't seem to allow any bbcode at all whatsoever.

Hey phpdesk (;

I'm gettin' some parse errors running your member profile intro on vB4.0.8PL2

PHP Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /forum/includes/class_core.php(4070) : eval()'d code on line 405 


or

PHP Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /forum/includes/class_core.php(4070) : eval()'d code on line 407 


I haven't installed or modified any other addon but yours and, of course, the Patch Level 2 of vB4.0.8. Since this PL-Update I've getting these errors on two profile pages out of roundabout 4,200 accounts O.o

Any Idea?

Best regards from Germany again

Would be very cool if you add this when someone try to send you a pm too, not only in the profile page.

Thanks for the feedback. Well, someone could probably tell why image bbcode wouldn't work, I am not sure, unfortunately.

Hi Alex, thanks for a great mod..

I noticed that the Profile intro Title and Profile intro Text is repeated in the basic information part of the About Me page. Meaning when on the About Me page or to guests and not logged in members the information is on the page twice.

Should this be happening? If not can you tell me what to do to remove it in the lower section? And if so can you let me know the template to modify so I can remove it?

Thanks.. Mel
