User Profile Field - get the option list from DB

[Kaemon]

I'm interested in this as well. I'm somewhat savy in PHP but I'm not sure which file or template I would need to add the select statement to to populate the dropdown on the registration page.

For reference, I saw the code below posted elsewhere.

   //  Get Members
    $members = $db->query_read("
        SELECT user.email, user.userid, user.username " . iif((!empty($vbulletin->options['c_news_letter_field'])),",userfield." . $vbulletin->options['c_news_letter_field'] . "") . "
        FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user
        " . iif((!empty($vbulletin->options['c_news_letter_field'])),"LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "userfield AS userfield ON (userfield.userid = user.userid)") . "
        WHERE user.userid >= " . $vbulletin->GPC['startat'] . "     
        " . iif((!empty($vbulletin->options['c_news_letter_field']))," AND (userfield." . $vbulletin->options[c_news_letter_field] . " = '" . $vbulletin->options[c_news_letter_field_yes] . "' OR userfield." . $vbulletin->options[c_news_letter_field] . " = '')") . " 
        " . iif((!empty($vbulletin->GPC['usergroups'])), "AND user.usergroupid IN ('" . implode("','",$c_news_letter_filter_usergroups) . "')") . "
        ORDER BY user.userid ASC
        LIMIT " . $vbulletin->GPC['perpage']
    );
        
    while ($member = $db->fetch_array($members))

I've also seen this posted somewhere for VB4 and not sure if PHP code needs to be added like this for vb3.X :

<div class="desc">[php]<br />
$myvar = 'Hello World!';<br />
for ($<i></i>i = 0; \$i &lt; 10; \$i++)<br />
{<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;echo $myvar . &quot;\n&quot;;<br />
}<br />
[ /php]</div>

From the above, it looks like the PHP code is rendered with HTML and THEN rendered by the web server. ????
