STEP 4; Upload the Images:

Gender in profile filed, and member list?

[merk_aus]

Thanks for this installed with ease - just hunting around for better gender images but it is greatly appreciated - thank you.

[CybaGirl]

First of all would like to say thank you very much for this mod.

But I was wondering is there a mod similar to this that will allow people to enter in the type of motorbike they ride and have it displayed in the same way as their gender is displayed using this mod?

Sorry if this is a dumb question as I am new to vBulletin and still learning how to do things and I am unsure as to what to look for when looking for something like this.

Thank you.

[Welshy2008]

You have a PM

[Gero50]

Very nice I tagged, will install this soon.

Options: Male , Female

^ I don't have this option in 4.0.3
Is it ok?

Gender ::

^ This has happened to me as well.

[Welshy2008]

Can you PM or post here, your forum URL?

When you added the new user profile field, did you add the option of Male & Female?

With regards to the ":" just remove it from the code (In bold-RED), below:

<!-- Wy Gender in postbit Start -->
<vb:if condition="$post['fieldX']"> <dt>Gender:</dt> <dd><img src="http://WWW.YOUR FORUM
ADDRESS.COM/images/misc/{vb:raw post.fieldX}.gif" alt="" /></dd></vb:if>
<!-- Wy Gender in postbit End -->
