Profile Enhancements - Extra Profile Fields Page

Note to all: Yes I will be upgrading this mod if needed to work with vB 4.0, but not before it goes gold on or around the ETA of December 21st. I personally wouldn't recommend anyone upgrade their forum for a couple weeks after it comes out so that the modding community has a chance to test their code on the gold version.

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

Don't forget to hit INSTALL!

NOTE: No code changes have been made from v3.0.1 for vB 3.7.x to v3.1.0 for vB 3.8.x.

This product will add a new page to the User CP for easy editing of specially marked profile fields, that for one reason or another you would like to split off from the main list.

NOTE: Any fields marked for this page will not be seen in the user's profile. You would need to install the Extra Profile Fields Tab addon to do this.


After the product is FULLY installed, when a you want to move a profile field to the new page for easy editing:

1. Go to the AdminCP and edit the field as normal.
2. At the bottom in the Display Page area, you will see "Which page displays this option?" The last option should say Options: $vbphrase[extra_options].
3. Save!

Personally, I use this page for PC specs, but it can also be used for other specs as well (e.g. cars). With an ADDITIONAL product (e.g. NOT this one), I place these specs in a dropdown list under the user title in each user's post, as well as in their profile as an extra tab.

Here's some examples of how I use this mod (with the Add-On mod, Extra Profile Fields Tab, and a separate mod, Profile Fields in a Postbit Dropdown):
http://www.houseofhelp.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=39826


# of plugins: 3
# of php page edits: 1 (admincp/profilefield.php)
# of new templates: 1 (page)
# of template edits: 1 (USERCP_SHELL)
# of new phrases: 3 Click here for details. Also look at the attached pictures to see where they show up.

To Install:
1) Save the attached product-wired1_epfp.xml file.
2) Navigate to AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> [Add/Import Product]
3) Browse to wherever you saved the file.
4) Allow Overwrite -> Yes.
5) Import!
6) Follow the instructions for the manual edits (1 template edit, 1 PHP page edit)

The install process should only take 5 minutes at most.

Don't forget to hit INSTALL!

Support will only be given to people who have hit install.

Ain't no thing, but a chicken wing...

Hi
How to add profile fields to Above Signature ?
Please help me

[ShawneyJ]

hi,

i have an MP3 player added in your profile fields page. its works like a charm, meaning i can see the MP3 player on the members profile. But the thing is, Me (Admin) is the only one that can see the MP3 player in a users profile. If i login as a test account as normal member, i can see the MP3 player, but as admin i can.

any tip please mate?

thx

This mod doesn't have a public area. Perhaps you were thinking of this one? Either way none of my mods have group permission code in them.

hi mate, yeah i installed that mod to thinking it may help.

like we all no members dont need permission for profile fields but i just can work it out.

i'll add 2 screen shots, 1 from admin view and one from members/mod view of a members profile with MP3 player.

thanks for your support.

EDIT: ahhh found the problem, the profile fields did not show when using CYB login to user account hack. when i made a test account and logged in as normal the MP3 player was visible.

sorry about the confusion mate. great hack, nominated

When you add it to that field it dissappears off the Profile fields in AdminCP how do you get it back?

Been a long time since the last reply, but...

Would it be possible to add a file upload option for a field?
