Profile Enhancements - Profile Page Banner

Changeable Member Profile Page Banner

Description: Your members can add a banner above their Profile page.
================================================== ===
Demo: http://nacc.club/member.php?u=1
The demo is a 3.8 test site but it will look the same in 4.2

Music will play in profile, please adjust volume before clicking.
================================================== ===
Step One:
You will need to make a new User Profile Field.

Admincp/User Profile Fields/Add New User Profile Field

Single-Line Text Box

Title: Add a banner above your profile

Description: Please add your Image URL
(Example: http://nacc.club/imagehosting/14f7bd890a86c3.jpg)

Field Required: No

Field Editable by User: Yes

Display Page: Edit Profile


Save it Remember the field ID number, you will need it later.

================================================== ===
Step Two:

You will need to edit your MEMBERINO template.
(MAKE A BACKUP OF ANY TEMPLATE YOU EDIT BEFORE YOU EDIT IT, YOU MAY NEED IT IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE.)
Find:

{vb:raw navbar}

Add below:

<div align=center><vb:if condition="$userinfo['fieldxx']"><td class="vbmenu_option"><img src="{vb:raw userinfo.fieldxx}" width="600" height="150"></td></tr> </vb:if></div>

Note: Change the xx in fieldxx to the profile field you created.
================================================== ===

As you see, I set the default Image size allowed to 600 x 150.
Any image a member adds will show image at that size.
Adjust these numbers to suit your needs or remove "width="600" height="150" to allow your members to add any size image.


================================================== ===

Step Four: Inform your Members...Enjoy
================================================== ===
================================================== ==
ADDON: Added wired1's extra profile pages addon ( marked reusable) to show the banner profile field to its own page and added <vb:else /> if conditionals to only show the page contents to select usergroups by adding usergroup id's to the top of the new pbanner template (info included in zip)

To Upgrade:
Click Install & download the zip file.
Import the product-be1_pbpfp.xml
Edit the admincp/profilefield.php file
Edit the USERCP_SHELL template
Edit the pbanner template to add usergroup id's to wat to allow access to the page

After you do the addon steps, go into your profile field manager, click edit to the right of Profile Banner. Scroll to the bottom of that page to the Display Page, click the dropdown and select, Option: Profile Banner Options... Done






================================================== ==

@blind-eddie

Your zip folder shows to be empty after download.

[blind-eddie]

Shows it has what it needs to have in it when I download

[Alibass]

I've downloaded it 3 times now......... it's empty........ look at your download counter it still shows 0 downloads.

[blind-eddie]

The counter does not update immediately. I checked the zip file & it had what I put in it.
I re-uploaded it again and it still has what I put in it.
Please try again.

Edit: I downloaded it in 3 different browsers, each download contained the items I added to it.

[Alibass]

Mate I have downloaded it with FF, Chrome and IE and I still get the same error message when I try to unzip the file. See attach

What zipping program are you using, I just unzipped it with no issues.

[Alibass]

Zip program is whatever came with Windows 7 Pro. I've even tried 7_zip

nothing works. In my usercp it doesn't even show I've downloaded the file. I've downloaded files here since 07 and for the last 1.5 years using this same zip program I'm using now and I have never had a issues with any file from vB.org before. I just tried a download from another mod and it unzips fine.

The problem is not on my end.....

[ozzy47]

That is strange, try this one, I rezipped it.

Edit: Removed the zip.
