Other Info

What gave me this idea was this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=142290
I did not copy any of his code. He said he was going to try and add it to the member profile, so I went ahead and did it.

Instructions

Instructions and images and located in the .zip folder attached to this post.

PLEASE CLICK INSTALL!

UPDATES:

v2.0:

- Added stylevar so that it cuts down 2 temp edits.
- Changed image directory to /forum/images/YOURSKIN/misc instead of /forum/images/misc.
- Fixed </if> coding error.

No real need to update or re download if you have it working already! This update is mainly for user's that have never installed or can't get it working.

v3.0

Just one minor template edit. This was brought to my attention by jmurrayhead. Go to the MEMBERINFO template.

FIND:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['hasimicons']">

REPLACE WITH:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['hasimicons'] OR $userinfo['fieldXX'] OR $userinfo['fieldXX']">

Replace the XX's with the field numbers for your MySpace & Facebook profile fields.

To make the input field display in edit profile page:

Go to your editprofile template.

FIND:

HTML Code:

<legend>$vbphrase[instant_messaging]</legend>

REPLACE WITH:

HTML Code:

<legend>Contact</legend>

FIND:

HTML Code:

<tr>
					<td>$vbphrase[skype_name]<br />
						<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/im_skype.gif" alt="" />
						<input type="text" class="bginput" name="skype" value="$bbuserinfo[skype]" size="25" maxlength="32" dir="ltr" /></td>
					<td>&nbsp;</td>
				</tr>

ADD UNDER:

HTML Code:

<td>MySpace Friend ID<br>
						<img src="http://www.YOURFORUM.com/forum/images/misc/myspace.gif" alt="" />

                                                <input type="text" class="bginput" 
name="myspace" value="$bbuserinfo[fieldXX]" size="25" maxlength="100" dir="ltr" /></td>

					
</td>


<td>FaceBook UserID<br>
						<img src="http://www.YOURFORUM.com/forum/images/misc/facebook.gif" alt="" />

                                                <input type="text" class="bginput" 
name="myspace" value="$bbuserinfo[fieldXX]" size="25" maxlength="100" dir="ltr" /></td>

					
</td>

Replace the XX's with appropiate field numbers that you created from the above post.
Also replace the YOURFORUM with your forum URL.

All it does is take the field that you enter in the custom fields in put them in the input fields under profile page. In order for it to display the user will have to enter in the custom fields which makes this kind of pointless to begin with. I do not know how to make the input field it's own variable. Maybe someone can figure that out and edit it?

Anyway. There you go.

I've been playing around with this, because thats where i would like the inputs. i'm not sure if this can be done without a plugin?
