CountryFlag Mod for vb 3.5

This hack shows user's country flag in postbit, below the user name.

Original by SmartGnome, AJR, Pingu and Stasik for vb 2.2.x.


1. Go to AdminCP => Profile Fields => Add new Profile field => Single Select Menu

Title > Home Country

Description > Tell people where you're from.

Options:
[copy and paste list of countries in flags_list.txt to this option field]

Set Default: Yes, Include a First Blank Option

Editable By User: Yes

Display Page: Edit Profile

Write down your field# . i.e field6

2. Open postbit(_legacy) template,

FIND:

				<div>
					$vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts]
				</div>

BELOW, ADD:

				<if condition="$post[fieldX] != ''"><div>
					Country: <img src="images/flags/$post[fieldX].gif" title="$post[fieldX]" align="center">
				</div></if>

<!-- Don't forget to change X to the field id. -->


3. Upload /flags to images/flags to your forum dir.



<!--- That's it! --->

---------------------------------------
To show countryflag in profile:


Open memberinfo template,

FIND:

				<if condition="$userinfo['usertitle']"><div class="smallfont">$userinfo[usertitle]</div></if>

BELOW, ADD:

				<if condition="$userinfo[fieldX] != ''"><div>
					Country: <img src="images/flags/$userinfo[fieldX].gif" title="$userinfo[fieldX]" align="center">
				</div></if>

i am using chinese version , is that any thing i need to change in coding ?

[tnguy3n]

fieldid shows in User Profile Field Management. (see attachment)

change fieldX (in code bit below) to your fieldid (whichever for your countryflag).

				<if condition="$post[fieldX] != ''"><div>
					Country: <img src="images/flags/$post[fieldX].gif" title="$post[fieldX]" align="center">
				</div></if>

i try it, everything like you said, but the icon is not show up, no flag appear. why?

This is a great mod I'm looking to use something like this to indicate languages spoken by users, so there may be more than one selection - can you suggest if there's a way to edit the process for this to allow for multi-flags to be displayed?

Thanks again, definitely will install this anyway but the extras would be cool

I had this working until I deleted the new profile filed. It was field6 and then I created a new profile field and re-odered them and now my field is field8 and no go!
Here is my postbit code for proof:

<if condition="$post[field8] != ''"><div>
					Country: <img src="images/flags/$post[field8].gif" title="$post[field8]" align="center">
				</div></if>

I also have the flags in images directory. Here is proof:

As you see, neither my profile (after making other modification) or the posts show my US flag:

Do you have any ideas why this will not work now?

I think there's a multiple selection menu option. You can try to use that instead of single selection as it was.

That was it! You have to add it to both. I think I would modify your directions to clearly state that for dumbies like me.
Nie work by the way. I clicked instal

For people who are having problems with their flags not showing try going to your profile and updating your country....

As far as modifying for postbit and postbit legacy you only need to modify for the one you are using....

/me clicks install. Works perfect.
