IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS for those upgrading to vB 3.6.10!!!

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=269

EVERYONE: PLEASE BE CRYSTAL CLEAR IN WHAT ISSUES YOU ARE HAVING WITH THIS MOD IF YOU ARE USING IT IN 3.7.x! A 3.7.x version is already in the works.

------------------------------------------------------------

You can find the 3.5.x version of this hack here.

This hack will add an extra page to the User CP. This area can be used for extra profile fields that for one reason or another you would like to split from the main list.

Personally, I use this page for PC specs, but it can also be used for other specs as well (e.g. cars). I have the specs in a dropdown list under the user title in each user's post, as well as in their profile page, but that's another hack You'll see a link to it under Add-Ons to the right.

Here's some examples of how I use this hack (with the Add-On hack, Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts):

I have tested this in 3.7, and its working 100% good :up:

thanks so much Wired1, this mod is just what I needed, you really helped me alot with this.

Edit: I have tested this back to front, its working great as far as I can see. I really dig how easy this is to customise, ive managed to get 2 extra options pages functioning perfectly

Good to hear it is running on version 3.7.0. However, I currently use this hack: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...t=system+specs

Will see if that can join together to work with this.

DieselTruck: Go over the instructions again, must've missed something.

Or... you can use the add-on for this plugin, which does the SAME THING. My dropdown plugin also came out months before that one, and my plugins for profile modifications are supported

I see the Edit Options in my Edit profile. But, I can't see to add any options to edit. Under USER PROFILE FIELD MANAGER:

I don't see the "Extra Options" Line anywhere on there...

I know this has been asked alot... Any Ideas?

[Wired1]

... because it's not under USER PROFILE FIELDS MANAGER, directly that is. Edit the PROFILE FIELD. Go to the bottom, under DISPLAY PAGE. What's the last thing on that dropdown?

I have it working fine with the other hack. Thanks for this wired.

NOTE!!!! Change for 3.6.10!!!

Technical explanation on CSRF changes

Because of this change, one line needs to be added to the PAGE template. You can either edit the template with the instructions below, or you can download the attached product-wired1_epfp(3.6.10 ONLY).xml, RENAME it to product-wired1_epfp.xml, and then install normally. As per any vB upgrade with this mod, when upgrading to vB 3.6.10 you'll still have to do the manual edits that are listed in the instructions again.

vB AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> (Select Style) -> page

Find:

<form action="profile.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[dbsessionhash]" />
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="updateextra" />

Under it add:

<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />
