NOTE:
You must now make a note of the field ID for your MySpace ID input. You can check what field ID is assigned by going to:
Admin CP -> User Profile Fields -> User Profile Field Manager
and looking at what ID is next to "MySpace ID"
For my instructions, i am going to use '99' as my Field ID, and you should change the number to suit what YOUR field ID is!
Go to AdminCP
Go to "Style Manager"
Go to "Edit Templates" for your theme.
Scroll down until you get to "Postbit Templates"
Open up either Postbit or Postbit Legacy (depending on what you use!)
I was looking for something that could help me get a specific link in the postbit... this is the best I could find but when trying to alter it just a tad.. well can't get it to work =0( Is there something I am doing wrong... Here's the code I am putting in where ya'll are putting it in..
What I am trying to do is use the the field to add in the users Nic so that it brings up the info on that member.. I'm so new at this.. is that code just not able to work here or there something else I am doing wrong that you can see... In the field6 I am just putting the user's Nic so that it will complete the address for that person.. Or does anyone know a better way of doing this... Like I said, I am sooo new at this LOL I hope ya'll can even understand my untechnical talk. Also this would work perfect as I JUST want this to display IF I put something in Field6 (Users can't edit) that way only people with BreeBux comes up... Make sense?
I figured it out.. wasn't the code that was the problems it was my cookies I guess.. was working the whole time but my browser wasn't reflecting the chances... cleared cookies and wa-la there it was!
Thanks for the code!!! Perfect solution for what I needed to do!
Rather than having a line that says "MySpace ID:" you could consider adding a small MySpace icon (like this one) to the spot under the postcount where the other IM icons usually appear.
i came to get the icon for the myspace..... and your link gave me what i was looking for the last time... but not this time... this is the perfect example why i dont like linking to other people's sites......
