make note of the field id

Template edit:
in postbit(_legacy)
find

<div>$post[icqicon] $post[aimicon] $post[msnicon] $post[yahooicon]</div>

add under

<if condition="$post[fieldX] != Undisclosed"><div>Gender: $post[fieldX] <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/gender_$post[fieldX].gif" alt="$post[fieldX]" /> </div></if>

Change X to the field id
And yer done
For the images to work you would need to upload a

images/misc/gender_male.gif and gender_female.gif

If you dont have or want images remove the img tag

Are you sure you don't mean the Members List?

Is your image in the /images/misc folder? Are the images correctly named gender_Male.gif and gender_Female.gif?

Also, in my revision, you'll need to set the Set Default option to None, not Yes, Including a First Blank Option. Otherwise, new members will automatically be classified as Male instead of having no specified gender.

zender, i tried what you said but with no luck. then again my postbit doesn't have the exact same part as the postbit_legacy. my postbit_legacy which is what i'm using, uses < div > while my postbit just uses < tr > < td > and < table > so i wasn't that certain whether to put it behind just the </ td > or the </ table >, did anybody else happen to figure out how to get those pix to show? and get rid of that Male Male / Female Femal?

[Wordplay]

man what the.... aiight. look i got one of the pictures to show up, remember it says "male male" or "female female".

and here are my 2 cents, if you're running a forum in some other language, for example german, you're going to have to name the file gender_Maennlich.gif instead of gender_Male.gif. because of the phrase translation.

now get jiggy with it.

only problem is, as long as it shows "Male < img >" the image is kind of useless.

****, how did you guys not get this? this is the code you need:

<if condition="$post[fieldX] != Undisclosed"><div><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/gender_$post[fieldX].gif" alt="$post[fieldX]" /> </div></if>

that removes the MALE MALE and makes it only one male... and furthermore, read my reply above to see how to get the images to show.

now get jiggy with it!

installed the hack, tis beautiful, thanks!

just one thing...the pictures wont work because the gender thing is set to Male and Female, but you say to upload the images as gender_male...it should be capitalized to get it to show up

I installed it but only after reading the tips from people who understood the instructions. its great and if you want to see it in action check out: Pit Lane

works with vb3.07?

[CSMatt]

Yes, this should work with vBulletin 3.0.7, as well as all other revisions of vBulletin 3.

[hollyboy]

installed cool

I have only 1 question: I'd like to not show anything on my postbit if the members select no sex, how do I set this?

[CSMatt]

Remove "Undisclosed" and change the Set Default option to None.

i've set up my members listing page to show this custom profile. right now, it shows Gender > male for example. How do I KISS and make it so it shows the picture and not the text? This would be helpful also for the membersinfo page as well.

for those of you who don't know, KISS = Keep It Simple Stupid
