Profile Fields in a Postbit Dropdown Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
If you use this mod please hit INSTALL!
This is an evolution of my Additional Section within Profile and Dropdown within Posts mod from 3.6.x. If you have a pre-3.7.x version installed: UNINSTALL the old product and reverse the edits. Don't forget to revert those templates ----------------------------------------------------------------------- With this mod you can allow profile fields to show up in a dropdown below a user's name and user's title under each post. There are two ways to use this product, and each has its own plugin (and template): Dropdown - Manual (enabled by default), and Dropdown - Automated (disabled by default). NOTE: The dropdown's title shows up as [username]'s [dropdown_title]. Yes, the 's is hardcoded into the mod. If you'd like this not to be hard coded, simply mention it after hitting install, and if enough of the users want it, I'll change it. Figured if I didn't hardcode it, someone wouldn't figure out how to add it To edit the title: Go to AdminCP -> Languages & Phrases -> Search in Phrases. Search for the phrase's title: [dropdown_title] (no brackets). Edit and save! The dropdown is dependent on Profile Field 5 being filled. If the user does not have this profile field filled out, then the dropdown will not show. To edit or remove this restriction: Go to the Dropdown Call Template. Find and edit, or remove these 2 lines of code (so that the dropdown will always show): Code:
<if condition="$post['field5']"> ... </if> The Plugin "Dropdown - Manual" is just like the 3.6.x version, all manual edits, but now they're in a template. No more files to manually edit Some examples of how to do this are already provided within the template. Go to AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> [STYLE NAME] Edit Style: Dropdown Information - Manual To use the automated dropdown, DISABLE Plugin "Dropdown - Manual" and ENABLE Plugin "Dropdown - Automated". Simple! "Dropdown - Automated" will automatically create the dropdown for ALL custom fields (it will skip the first 4 default ones). To sum it up: Plugin: Dropdown - Manual PRO: You select which fields, what descriptions, and in what order you want the fields to show up. CON: Lots of typing Plugin: Dropdown - Automatic PRO: Automatic! CON: no real control, Profile fields 5 and up will show up in order. NOTE: if it is a HIDDEN profile field, apparently only the DATA is hidden, not the field name, so the field name will show up as well. To block a profile field from showing up in the Automatic Dropdown, check out this post. Version History: 3.0.0 - Initial Release 3.0.1 - Added plugin to cache templates, courtesy of ssslippy.

I installed and seems to work fine for me, everyone else can't see it? What's going on?

If no one else has the fields filled out, or the APPROPRIATE field filled out, then it won't show up under their user name.
you might want to check which fields it's using to determine if it shows up or not. |

I hope you don't mind that I registered. You can feel free to delete my account if you want. I'm thinking about your suggestion....if I do that, then what happens to all of the other mods I have installed that either made automatic template edits or that required me to make template edits or that added their OWN templates? And is there a way to get the templates without going through a whole install process? We're building this new site basically from the ground up then going to import all of the information from the old forums. The old forums are 3.6.0. I suppose I could upgrade them to 3.7 then just grab the templates that way? is there even a way to export the templates then import them on the other site? Or will I have to do it all manually? Thanks for the help! |

ok... maybe I didn't explain myself properly. User's can't see my profile fields. I can see my own fields though. Thanks.

The mod doesn't have ANY code that limits who can and cannot see the dropdown. Do you have more than one template? Do you have a link to your forum?

I dread the next time I have to go through that, but I'm hoping I'm just noob and there is an easier way. I have alot of mods and went from 3.6.8 to 3.7.0. Your mileage may vary! J |

AH HA!
Your post gave me an idea. I started going through all of my templates that were red and comparing current to original, I found a template that was IDENTICAL but for some reason it was showing up as having been edited....so i reverted it and voila! It's fixed! |
