CountryFlag Mod for vb 3.5

This hack shows user's country flag in postbit, below the user name.

Original by SmartGnome, AJR, Pingu and Stasik for vb 2.2.x.


1. Go to AdminCP => Profile Fields => Add new Profile field => Single Select Menu

Title > Home Country

Description > Tell people where you're from.

Options:
[copy and paste list of countries in flags_list.txt to this option field]

Set Default: Yes, Include a First Blank Option

Editable By User: Yes

Display Page: Edit Profile

Write down your field# . i.e field6

2. Open postbit(_legacy) template,

FIND:

				<div>
					$vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts]
				</div>

BELOW, ADD:

				<if condition="$post[fieldX] != ''"><div>
					Country: <img src="images/flags/$post[fieldX].gif" title="$post[fieldX]" align="center">
				</div></if>

<!-- Don't forget to change X to the field id. -->


3. Upload /flags to images/flags to your forum dir.



<!--- That's it! --->

---------------------------------------
To show countryflag in profile:


Open memberinfo template,

FIND:

				<if condition="$userinfo['usertitle']"><div class="smallfont">$userinfo[usertitle]</div></if>

BELOW, ADD:

				<if condition="$userinfo[fieldX] != ''"><div>
					Country: <img src="images/flags/$userinfo[fieldX].gif" title="$userinfo[fieldX]" align="center">
				</div></if>

Great mod, the user profile is working great and the flags are showing on the thread/post profile but I am getting an additional if condition=" != ''"> above the flag... for example...

If you just want the country name to show up, then you just add the following syntax

Find:

PHP Code:

<div class="info">$post[musername] is $post[onlinestatus] </div> 


ADD BELOW: where you find sweetable

PHP Code:

<if condition="$post['fieldX']"><div class="info">$vbphrase[location_perm]: $post[fieldX]</div></if> 


REMEMBER to replace the "X" whit the field number as describet in the original script

hello, I tried making the changes to both postbit and postbit legacy and still no flag shows up. Here is what I did:


Step one completed as stated

Step two:

				<div>
					$vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts]
				<if condition="$post[field5] != ''"><div>
					Country: <img src="images/flags/$post[field5].gif" title="$post[field5]" align="center">
				</div></if>

<!-- Change X to the field id. -->

Am I supposed to change 3 X's?


flag folder added: Forum/images/flags

Help?

anyone?

Do you get the bit that says 'Country:'? If so I'd guess you are either added the wrong fieldID or you put the flags in the wrong location.

If you haven't even got 'Country:' displayed then I suggest you start from the beginning and go through the installation again.

Thank you. Just want I was looking for. Now all we need are state and province flags

I help run a forum that has a lot of ex pats and i have been asked if it possible to add a second flag to say where they are originally from.
Can the profile field be edited to have the option of a second flag.
