1. Make a profile field
Profile field type = Single-line text box
Title: Myspace account
Description: Type your Myspace ID.
You can leave the rest to default.

**Note down the number of the field! Example: field16. You need to replace the X in the next code with the number!**


2. Template changes - In postbit_lecacy & Postbit

Find:

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

<if condition="$post[fieldX]"><a href="http://www.myspace.com/$post[fieldx]" alt="View my myspace" target="_blank">
<img src="images/misc/myspace.gif" border="0"></a>

To add full clickable myspace URL of user to Contact Info:

in memberinfo:

Find:

				<if condition="$show['homepage']">
				<tr>
					<td>
						$vbphrase[home_page]:<br />
						<a href="$userinfo[homepage]" target="_blank" dir="ltr">$userinfo[homepage]</a>
					</td>
				</tr>
				</if>

add above:

				<if condition="$userinfo[fieldX]">
				<tr>
					<td>
						Myspace:<br />
						<a href="http://myspace.com/$userinfo[fieldX]" target="_blank">http://myspace.com/$userinfo[fieldX]</a>
					</td>
				</tr>
				</if>

fieldX being the custom field for myspace.

The Only Tweak would be to show the icon when viewing profile or atleast hyperlink the number

No he's right and your misunderstanding what he is saying.

If a user doesn't have an MSN or Yahoo listed in their profile, then the MySpace button WILL NOT SHOW UP regardless if they have any info listed in their myspace field or not. So let's say a user has listed info in their myspace field but they haven't listed a yahoo or msn etc, then the myspace button will not show up. Like basilrath said the field doesn't get created.
