Will "web links" be an available button somewhere in the forum? I hyperlink perhaps? How does the end user use this nifty new feature?

Thanks!

The links shows in the user profile and in the users control panel. For me it's an awesome link because I travel a lot and my site is about travel and whenever I run off to another country I always have to make up a private page on my web server or carry a floppy of important links that I need. (i.e.-to pay bills, run a business, etc...etc..) I can't remember them all.

Having a way where I can do this on my own forum and be able to access it worldwide, saves me and my members loads of time.

Cheers

I don't see where the link is for other member's to view your shared URL links. We didn't modify the getinfo template so how are the other members going to see the link? Just wondering.

Also, I installed the original version - do I need to run the installer again to add the new setting options? If I don't want the new options, can I stay with the original bookmark.php file or should I upload the new file? Thanks.

You find the link in members profile for the user (see screenshot). The hyperlink is only visible, if the user has public bookmarks and 'browse public bookmarks' enabled (in admin cp options). You don't must change the template 'getinfo'. The hyperlink in members profile is made by the change in the file member.php (customfields routine).

Yes. Run the installer again, but only the first step (Add tables/rows/fields in SQL-DB). That's all. Replace the old bookmarks.php with the file from zip archive - this is better.

Aahhh... should have seen it... that is very smart, using the customuserfield to do this. Good idea!

Ok, i installed the hack when it first was posted. then i added the links to add the thread to your bookmarks. When i click add to bookmarks, it brings me to the my user cp, add bookmarks, but none of the fields are filled in. I downloaded the latest file in post 1, re-ran the first step of the installer, uploaded the new bookmarks.php file, and it is still the same. Shouldn't clicking add to bookmarks fill in the url?

[Smoothie]

Never mind aranoid: I could have sworn I uploaded the new bookmarks.php file. Guess i didn't... :knockedout: Works fine now.. :banana:
