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>

Thanks for your help!

Did you just copy that sentance out of my request in the request section? Its word for word the same

Regardless of that, it sounds like there is a demand for this from several people, i would REALLY appreciate it if someone could take the time to find out how to add it next to the username next to the latest posts on forum home and latest posts when viewing inside a forum.

Okay weird. I douwnloaded it but all I have are the flag images. No instructions and no list.

I'll try downloading again then

Not possible on a stock vB forum. Extensive hacking would have to happen first.

I don't know about the support, but I do know this:

If you follow the guide in the top of this page, it will work for you.

I did make an alternative guide to this hack, in case you should like to get the country name to show, instead of the flags. Just look on a earlier page.

Follow the instruction step by step on this modifikation, and all will work

installed the hack, but changed it to "Favorite NHL team" instead of country (considering my forums are for canadians.)
