Profile Enhancements - XBL Gamerscore in Postbit

Here is a little add on I did for my forum in the postbit_legacy template. This is the first time I'm posting really anything valuable on vb.org so here.

Step 1: Add Profile Field

Admin CP > User Profile Fields > Add new profile field

Title: XBL Gamertag
Description: Enter your XBL Gamertag.
Max length of allowed user input: 15
Field editable by user: Yes
Private Field: No

Every other option is up to you.

Step 2: Edit postbit/postbit_legacy template

Add this wherever you would like the image to show up in the postbit_legacy.

<fieldset><legend>XBL Gamertag</legend>
<div>
<center>
<iframe src="http://gamercard.xbox.com/$post[fieldXX].card" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" height="140" width="204"></iframe>
</center>
</div>
</fieldset>

Note: Edit the XX to the field number that you just made.

There you go, looks good on my forum, it's a little big, but I haven't been able to adjust the size because it cuts off the image.

Also, if you don't like the image displayed maybe this mod by EyeCrave will be more to your liking:

thank you Lag, one question about your code. do the users have to be signed up with mygamercard.net for their gamercards to show on their profile or will it just display their gamercards no matter what?

Try it for yourself,

Use:
http://card.mygamercard.net/mini/GAMERTAG.png

Try a gamertag that isn't in there database. I don't believe you have to be signed up.

nevermind, yeah, you must be signed up with gamercard.net

[atlambros83]

yeah you do have to have an account with gamercard.net

thanks chu

That's incorrect, you don't need an account for mygamercard.net. Just tried some gamertags, works perfectly. I've got a mouse-over gamercard in my forum, that will make sure it's not too large. It'll pop up when you hover over a tag.

[atlambros83]

you are right ak, sorry

does anyone know how to make this so that if a user does not post their gamertag in their profile it will not show the box?

You would need to add an <if> statement like this:

<if condition="$post[fieldXX]">
<fieldset><legend>XBL Gamertag</legend>
<div>
<center>
<iframe src="http://gamercard.xbox.com/$post[fieldXX].card" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" height="140" width="204"></iframe>
</center>
</div>
</fieldset>
</if>

That should work.
