Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts · **Released**: 08-06-2006

NOTE: After checking out the vBulletin 3.7 First Look thread, which contains significant changes to the Member Profile page, it is clear that this mod as-is will probably not work properly when it comes to displaying the Extra Profile Info on that page. As soon as an official 3.7 comes out, I'll start working on the changes.

The 3.5.x version of this hack can be found here.

This hack builds upon my Extra Profile Fields Page hack. This template mod lets you take the extra fields from that hack and places them within a dropdown that sits below the user's title within each post, as well as replaces the Group Memberships area with a listing of only these specs. The EPFP hack is basically the entry form for the data that's manipulated in this hack. Please check out the pics at the EPFP hack link to get the full idea.

In my case, it is used for PC specs (and as you will see the instructions are tailored towards this), however it can be easily used for parts or specifications of almost anything (car parts for example).

An example is shown here:

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Can the selections be made clickable to a url that opens in a new window ?

Wired1 · #8 08-07-2006, 09:38 PM

Not with this mod. All the selections are just user profiles. If Jelsoft ever lets profile fields become links, or you find a hack that gives you this option, then it should work fine automatically.

In the 3.5 version you list the hook contents, but not in 3.6. ??

Yeah, didn't feel there was a reason to, as you can read the XML code or read the plugin from the admincp.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
