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.

Don't forget to hit INSTALL!

Also, please post where you've installed this, as I'd like to see how people are using it. Or if guests can't see the effects, then please post a pic.

It was just a suggestion to make your instructions more clear. There's nothing in there stating what to do with the XML file. The question has been asked already in this thread so obviously some people are confused by it.

Installed! You can see it here http://www.4x4mecca.com/forum/showpo...96&postcount=2

I want it not to be blue though, and I know it is part of my vbmenu_control setup. Can I create a custom copy of the vbmenu_control and change the colors around?

EDIT
Never mind, I saw your reply

I got it fixed, I edited the vbulletin-style.xml and copied the vbmenu_control and renamed it and changed the BG color and size
You can see here how it looks now

PM me for help if you need it, I may not check this post often.

This has been answered in another thread, and has nothing to actually do with this hack. There are no database changes with ANY of my hacks to date, so any vBulletin profile field location information should either be directed towards Jelsoft, or to a more appropriate forum / thread.

Can someone confirm if this works in 3.6.5 postbit_legacy and I would like to place this under avatar??

thx.

Wired1 · #**108** 03-07-2007, 04:06 PM

yes, but the instructions are tailored for the postbit. Just paste the dropdown code under the avatar code in the postbit_legacy.

Took me a while (Note to self: Do not install mods on no sleep).. but I got it =0) This is an awesome addition to my site.. Thankyou so much!!!

One question... is there a way to get rid of the little arrow graphic next to it? I'm assuming I couldn't or it would also get rid of the one on my navbar? Oh well I can live with it... LOVE this mod!

Always, Bree

Thanks

It's using the same vBulletin function that creates the dropdowns in the navbar.

Its ok - I'm already used to the arrow being there LOL So it's fine... and I've gotten a lot of compliments from my members... Again, thankyou! Always, Bree
