Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts · **Released**: 10-18-2005

This hack builds upon my Extra Profile Fields Page hack. This template mod lets you take the extra fields from that hack and places them within a dropdown that sits below the user's title within each post, as well as replaces the Group Memberships area with a listing of only these specs. The EFP hack is basically the entry form for the data that's manipulated in this hack. Please check out the pics at the EFP hack link to get the full idea.

In my case, it is used for PC specs (and as you will see the instructions are tailored towards this), however it can be easily used for parts or specifications of almost anything (car parts for example).

An example is shown here:

Example of user profile with specs:

# of plugin hooks: 1
# of php page edits: 1 (just 1 line to add the custom hook line into member.php)
# of template edits: 3
# of phrase edits: 1

An admin section will eventually be done for this, as well as extra areas to place the new specs within. Because this is based upon the EFP hack, the upgrades in functionality to this hack will depend on the EFP hack's upgrades. In otherwords, staggered upgrades. Other functionality has been recommended and will be added at a later date. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Don't forget to hit INSTALL!

Also, please post where you've installed this, as I'd like to see how people are using it. That'll help me think of new ways to add to it aside from my own needs for this hack. Or if guests can't see the effects, then please post a pic.

It's already using the same vB function that Quick Links uses.

Damn vB notifier didn't tell me there was a reply, sorry!

He'd have to post the code, then I could see about integrating it if people wanted.

"plugin System -> Add New Plugin

Hook Location: vBulletin: Profile / Option Updates -> member_extras

Do you have info in the specific fields? Did you install the other hack? Do you have a link to the forum in question? Also, please hit the Install button!

The location of the dropdown is in an area for a different post view, where the poster info is above the post, not to the side. You'd just have to move that.

In the dropdown menu i can't make multiple-selection-checkbox fields to show... it just show numbers...
