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>

Flag won't show up after I edited postbit-legacy template?

Here is the code. field5 is the correct field #. I uploaded the flags directory to [forum root]/images/.

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

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

I am using the Kirsch style if that makes a difference.

Thanks

Uh

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

Where would that flags_list.txt file be exactly?

Nice add-on :up: many thanks - *Installed*

nathanaus: It's in the zip file, together with the flag images and installation instructions

will definetly install

Too make this even cooler, I would love to see under the 'USA' flag, the ability to pick a state flag. Just a little suggestion.

Yep, i've asked for something similar. The ability to choose a second flag.

anyone know how to incorporate this hack into the todays post section. For example, if a users posts, it will show the flag under the last poster section beside the username. Similar to the site like this:

Thanks for your help!

Tried editing postbit_legacy in templates and the flags don't show, might it work if you change postbit?
