Now, go to your Phrase Manager and add a new Phrase:

Product: Vbulletin
Varname: x_xfire_info
Text: You can get closer information about Xfire <a href="http://www.xfire.com" rel="nofollow">here</a>.

When you create the new field make a note of the field ID you will need to substitute the X1 for the 1st new userfield and X2 for the 2nd new userfield with the xFire username field ID number and xFire style field ID number.

Now edit your profile and enter your xFire username.

If you use this mod please click Install - cheers!

Another great mod. Way to go!

Clicked install..

Side note. You may want to edit your code. It lists your field numbers instead of the "x1" and "x2".

Installed as well... also, your readme for this doesn't seem to match the instructions listed in your post. The readme had me looking for incorrect template files.

Good release! Working great.

[blasteron]

can someone please post the corrected code call me thick i jsut cant figure this out.

[Andyucs]

yea just a prob with the read me files where do i change this

When you create the new field make a note of the field ID you will need to substitute the X1 for the 1st new userfield and X2 for the 2nd new userfield with the xFire username field ID number and xFire style field ID number.

After a bit of work i got it working but please update your install instructions

also clicked install thanks works great

[Abhean]

field13=X1
field17=X2

Is that correct or is it the other way around?

Either way the graphic is not showing up for me. But, I like the hack thanks!

EDIT:
I got the graphic to work. Dont copy and paste the Xfire styles you have to enter them by hand without the bullets or the graphic will not show up.

Great MOD!

[GFX Brands]
