Adding a new field in posbit? · **Released**: 07-24-2003

Could someone please help me with this?

I was wondering... I want to add a new field under the users avatar and title in the postbit. But I don't want the user to be able to modify it. Basically I want to stick icons in there. (And I don't want to mess with the title field.)

I tried creating a new user profile field and made it invisible to the user (during registration and in the control panel). But how do I get it to show up in the postbit? I tried $post[field6] but got nothing.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Check the user profile fields section of the admincp again - make sure its only editable by admins

thanks but I got it. You have to use the $post[fieldxx] like I did. But the number of the field was ALOT higher than I expected. I only have a about 6 visible, but the number was 15. So I had to make it $post[field15] but it worked. Members can't change it, only I can. And this is nice cause it gives me a second area to add stuff under their names.

To find the actual number number to put in I had to go to phpmyadmin and look at the profilefield attribute. (click browse)
