Populating a field defined in 'User Profile Field Manager'

[kharmer]

Hi all,

I am working on an API to allow an external site to create and update accounts in vB4.

All is working fine when creating and updating accounts with default fields like username/password/email.

However, we have some custom fields defined in the 'User Profile Field Manager'; they are named field1/field2.../field5 etc.

This is part of the code that falls over when attempting to create an account including a custom field:

PHP Code:

        // init user datamanager class
        $newuser =& datamanager_init('User', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY);
        
        // set username
        $newuser->set('username',    $username,    true);

        // set email
        $newuser->set('email',        $email,        true);

        // set password
        $newuser->set('password',    $password,    true);

        // set xxx
        $newuser->set('field5',    $xxx,    true); // Custom field defined from 'User Profile Field Manager' 


I have read about the data managers but am not sure what DM model I should be referencing when trying to save to this custom field.

Could anyone please advise.

Kind regards,
Kris...
