Parse BBCode in Custom Profile Fields

Why? Cause I think this should be the norm and others in this thread seem to want it. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=101248

Be nice to also have WYSIWYG on the textareas, but that's another hack.

There are 2 versions of this.
The first one, product-parse_bbcode_in_profile_1.1.xml, is for anyone that does not have the MySpace style profile template hack installed. You can find that hack here https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=101248

The second, product-myspace_style_profile_version.xml, is for users that are using that template hack.

INSTALLATION:
Install the Product and that's it. Will install 1 new plugin. I tested as best I can, but see what happens. Can't provide 100% support, but I will see what I can do.

For non-MySpace profile template users, some options:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Optionally remove some code.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you only want certain fields, put this code for EACH fieldx u want parsed in member_customfields hook location.

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

If you did this code change for 1.01, u can now remove it as it is not needed for 1.1.
v.1.01 Code Change

in admincp/profilefield.php find

PHP Code:

// #################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ###################### 


add above that

PHP Code:

define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'profile_admin'); 


end 1.01 code change

################################################## ##

Great Job!!

Only problem I see with this (so far):
This is parsing the fields just dandy in the profile itself, but when it comes to postbit, I see:

Location: color=blueWaterloo, IA/color

instead of

Location: Waterloo, IA

Any idea what I'm missing there? (yes, I deliberately took the tags out of the first color bit to prevent it from showing up as an actual color.

hmm problem again quotes are turning from " to "

[ImportPassion]

ya, i posted about that on vb.com, but no reply. not sure why that is happening.

[Oreamnos]

First of all, i installed the plugin and it worked beautifully on 3.5.2.

i have 2 questions:

1. What can I change so that it automatically turns any URL into a link? I don't want users to have to use BBCode.
2. Any luck with the quotes issue?

Thanks!

Okay how can i exclude a field?

example i want all the field to have bbcode but the css field....

how can i do that?

[ImportPassion]

u could do something like this

PHP Code:

if ($profilefieldname != 'field2') {
$profilefield['value'] = $bbcode_parser->parse($userinfo["$profilefieldname"],0, true);
} 


replace field2 with ur css field #

not tested, but give it a shot.

Would you be willing to change this so that it parses signatures? Namely Admin Signatures.... my attempts at it are failig miserably and angering my includes folder
