Country Flags - Postbit & Postbit_Legacy. vB 4.0.x (Inc GO · **Released**: 12-03-2009

Description:

This Add on, gives a selection of Countries that your Member (New or Existing) can choose from in a 'Drop-Down Menu'. The Country he/she selects, will be displayed as a Flag in their Postbit.

Credit for the Flags goes to Cobro. (I have renamed each and every flag to work with this Mod).

Instructions:

Firstly ?Upload? ALL the Flag GIF pics to your forum root /images/buttons/flags folder.

IE: yourforumaddress.com/forum/images/buttons/flags

Please Note: Due to the flags folder being too large to upload as one - I have been forced to upload it as "flags1", "flags2" and "flags3" - Please ensure that you add a new folder to "images/buttons/" and name it "flags". Please copy the contents of ALL THREE (3) flags folders in the attachment below to the new 'flags' folder that you have just made. (DO NOT place them as 3 seperate folders!"

Then in your Admin Control Panel (ACP), please do the following:
ACP -> User Profile Fields -> Add New User Profile Field ->Profile Field Type -> Single-Selection Menu (select ?Single-Selection Menu? from the Drop-Down Menu) -> Please enter the following into the following fields (REMEMBER to make a note of the FieldID, because you will need to replace ALL the X?s in [fieldX] with it!!!
(Please see 'FieldID.jpg' attachment below).

Add New User Profile Field Single-Selection Menu:

Title = Country Flag
Description = Add your country flag to your profile:
Profile Field Category = (Uncategorized)
Options = Copy & Paste the Whole contents of the file attached below (OPTIONS)
Set Default = None
Display Order = You Select this (dependant on how many you already have)
Field Required = yes, at registration and profile updating
Field Editable by User = Yes
Private Field = No
Field Searchable on Members List = No
Show on Members List = Yes

Optional Input:

Allow user to input their own value for this option = No
Max length of allowed user input = 100
Field Length = 25
Regular Expression = Leave this Blank

Display Page:

Which page displays this option? = Edit Your Details ** Please note that the vB4.0.4 Version does not show this option. Please select "Edit Profile" option. The selct your country flag option, I can confirm, Also shows on registration too.
** SAVE **

Then, In your Admin Control Panel (ACP)...

ACP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> <<>> -> Postbit Templates -> select the template that you use (ie Postbit or Posbit_legacy) ? This is for the Postbit_Legacy?

FIND:

Code:

                    <span class="usertitle">
                        {vb:raw post.usertitle}
                    </span>

If you would like to place it under your number of user posts (to the right of your Postbit) then look for:

Code:

<dt>{vb:rawphrase posts}</dt> <dd>{vb:raw post.posts}</dd>

(upto vB4.0.5) ADD BELOW:

Code:

<!-- Wy Country Flags Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['fieldX']"> <dt>Country:</dt> <img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_button}/flags/{vb:raw post.fieldX}.GIF" alt="Users Country Flag" border="" /></vb:if>
<!-- Wy Flags End -->

(for vB4.0.6 AND 4.0.7) ADD BELLOW:

Code:

<!-- Wy Country Flags Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['fieldX']"> <dt>Country</dt> <img src="http://www.YOURFORUM ADDRESS.com/forum/images/buttons/flags/{vb:raw post.fieldX}.GIF" alt="This is {vb:raw post.username}'s Country Flag" border="" /></vb:if></p>
<!-- Wy Flags End -->

(Also adds the Username to the 'alt' Code on Mouseover).

(for vB4.0.8):

Code:

<!-- Wy Country Flags Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['fieldX']"><style="text-align:left"> Country:</dt> <img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_button}/flags/{vb:raw post.fieldX}.GIF" align="middle" alt="Users Country Flag" border="" /></vb:if>  
<!-- Wy Flags End -->

(Thanks to Krusty1231 for this).

(for vB4.1.0 , 4.1.0 PL2 & 4.1.1)

Code:

<!-- Wy Country Flags Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['fieldX']"><style="text-align:left"> Country:</dt> <img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_button}/flags/{vb:raw post.fieldX}.GIF" align="middle" alt="{vb:raw post.fieldX}" border="" /></vb:if>  
<!-- Wy Flags End -->

Even though I have not tested this in these versions, others have and have reported this mod to be working in them.[/B]

Please make sure the style and template edits are still there. Just one of the people can be seen on post 350

Thank You, Will. It is kind comments like that that makes the "ear bashing off of the Wife and Children for not seeing me", worth it.

I'm using vB 4.0.7.

For some reason the images ain't showing up. I added the code to postbit as it was said in the instructions. Do I have to add it to the postbit_legacy too?
Flags are uploaded. The path is correct. I also entered the correct field ID.

PHP Code:


			
<!-- Wy Country Flags Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['field19']"> <dt>Country</dt> <img src="http://www.pro-esports.com/forums/images/buttons/flags/{vb:raw post.field19}.GIF" alt="This is {vb:raw post.username}'s Country Flag" border="" /></vb:if></p>
<!-- Wy Flags End -->

Same issue for me in 4.0.7

CharlieDelta · #**318** 09-30-2010, 01:50 AM

Code:

<!-- Wy Country Flags Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['fieldX']"> <dt>Country</dt> <img src="http://www.YOURFORUM ADDRESS.com/forum/images/buttons/{vb:raw post.fieldX}.GIF" alt="This is {vb:raw post.username}'s Country Flag" border="" /></vb:if></p>
<!-- Wy Flags End -->

Hey Welshy I think you are missing

Code:

 /flags

after

Code:

/buttons

. I could be wrong.

That's all I had to do to make it work in 4.0.7

Thanks Charlie

Thank you CharlieDelta, I have now corrected that, and it is working, as confirmed by Shanef.

I can also confirn that this mod is working in vB4.0.7 too.

You also forget the : after "Country" and the space. You also have to move the </dt> to another place in order to have the flag show up on the right side of the country field, otherwize it will be displayed below.

PHP Code:


			
<!-- Wy Country Flags Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['fieldX']"> <dt>Country:&nbsp;<img src="http://www.YOURFORUM ADDRESS.com/forum/images/buttons/flags/{vb:raw post.fieldX}.GIF" alt="This is {vb:raw post.username}'s Country Flag" border="" /></dt></vb:if></p>
<!-- Wy Flags End -->

That's the code I'm using to have it like in your screenshot.
