Show Thread Enhancements - Show Profile Fields In Postbit, Zero Query & Template Edit!

Brought to you by Syrian Medical Society & Milado

Introduction & Description:
This product allows you to choose which profile fields you want to show in the postbit / postbit_legacy, and adds them automatically without any query or any template edit.

Features:

• Zero Query!
• Zero Template Edit!
• Set it once, and forget it.
• Choose which profile fields to show by entering their names (ex: field1) in the option (Profile Fields To Show In Postbit).
• Set the display order in the option (Profile Fields To Show In Postbit).
• Choose to show titles for profile fields or not.
  • If not, profile fields' values will be separated by dash - and shown in one line Attachment 78860.
  • Otherwise every profile field will be shown in its own line (in the format title: value) Attachment 78861.
• Choose to show the profile fields in one of current three supported locations:
  • Under the user name, user title and user rank Attachment 78860.
  • Right Under the number of user posts Attachment 78861.
  • Under the infractions and reputation.

How comes you don't use any query or any template edit even?
When you set your options, a template will be modified to suit your new options, and will be cached, eval()ed and used to show the profile fields.

Installation & Upgrade: 3.7.0 at least is required.

• Import the product file product-profile_fields_in_postbit.xml and you're done.
• Choose yes to overwrite for upgrading.
• Now modify the settings in (Thread Display Options (showthread)) according to your needs.
• When you upgrade, make sure you hit the save button in the Thread Display Options (showthread) page.

Settings:
See the screen shot Attachment 78859, settings explain themselves.

Thank You

My site is a bodybuilding/fitness site and this is EXACTLY what I needed. It allows me to have users add their height and weight right where I wanted it. Thanks and marked as installed.

Also I installed it on a a 3.7.0 gold version and it works perfectly so far.

Mine does not work, do I have to run the maintenance to get them updated? I wonder if its the skin I'm using.

My field6 is Bike that I want to show their bikes in their postbit under their names.

Note: I should type exactly field6 in the box correct?

Note: It only works when I put the option for the field to be under the post count and it does not show up inside the table in the profile. Pic enclosed.

You use custom style, it's most likely to be the reason!

Like the red text in the pic below

I agree this would be a great addition.

It doesn't work in postbit legacy.

[Milad]

revert your template.

Is it possible to add the option of displaying the custom fields in a floating div?

I use this "My PC" custom fields and it's too much information to show explicitly

It depends on template hooks to show fields, without those hooks, my hack won't work.

Sorry!
