Profile Enhancements - Extra Profile Fields Tab

Don't forget to hit INSTALL!

This is an evolution of my Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts mod from 3.6.x.

If you have a pre-3.7.x version installed:
UNINSTALL the old product and reverse the edits. Don't forget to revert those templates

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

This product builds upon my Extra Profile Fields Page product. This product places the Extra Profile Fields into a new tab on the user's Public Profile.

Does anyone want a future version of this to have a mini block w/ the same data?

To Install:
1) Save the attached product-extratab.xml file.
2) Navigate to AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> [Add/Import Product]
3) Browse to wherever you saved the file.
4) Import!

Version History:
1.0.0 - Initial Release
1.0.1 - Cached template

Don't forget to hit INSTALL!

Installed.

Hello, as my former colleagues, I installed this MOD in order to avoid custom fields from showing both on a field-category tab and in the About-Me tab.

After installation, I couldn't find any vBulletin option for this MOD, nor any difference in how my profile page is showing.

Can you please expend your instructions for the thick and dummies Thanks.

=========================================

Sorry, all is well

Only now did I understand that this MOD converts the extra page in Extra Profile Fields Page mod into extra tab.

Thanks for this great mod.

Wouldn't it make sense to combine your two mods into one since they're both supposed to work together?

A must-have request:

vBulletin provides only two permission options for a field display: private or public, and no consideration to permissions is given in field-category setting.

One permission option is lacking and could only be found in vBadvanced Dynamics: viewable by friends (buddies).

One answer to this limitation was given to me here, but the truth is that your product is the natural container to manage such conditional: the ability to display the tab to myself and friends only.

Please consider adding this feature to your product. It will add great functionality and desirability to it.

Many thanks in advance.

Khalik, ShlomoT: You're welcome!

Gotta manually hack it a bit, I'll throw something together this weekend.

I'll look into it, I think I already know how to do it. Ultimately, ideas like this and some others I have lend themselves to doing an adminCP page for the mods, so that's another project on the horizon, just gotta figure out HOW to make an easy to install AdminCP page. I'd want to make a side menu for all the Products, but ultimately I think it may just be a dropdown in the main vB options.

I was thinking of doing that, but some people don't use the info publicly, or just don't have a need for this mod at all, so this way they don't need to add on extra code to their vB.

Good idea, I'll see what I can do!

Ok, wired -- thanks!

You can see the tab here. Basically, I just want to remove: System Specs YES -- which is at the top. Hmmm....

OH, you just want to stop showing that particular field, not the whole tab?

Ok, here's what you'd have to do. Create a new Profile Category in the AdminCP. Assign the profile field that category. NOTE the Category ID!

EDIT plugin: Extra Profile Fields Tab

FIND:

WHERE pf.form = 6

REPLACE WITH:

WHERE pf.form = 6 AND pf.profilefieldcategoryid != <INSERT CATEGORY ID # HERE>

It'll then pull up all EPFP fields that are NOT in that category.

Good Deal Wired1
Its good 2 see many folks working on tabs these days... Excellent


Keep the ball ROLLING!!! :up:

That produces a database error. I just want to remove the Single-Selection Menu.

Don't use the <>, example:

WHERE pf.form = 6 AND pf.profilefieldcategoryid != 5
