Nice mod, installed.

For the people with spanish forums, I have modified the flags_list file to reflect the Spanish name of the countries and the images for that. I attach the flag_list and the images if you want it to be in spanish.

Just what I was looking for ! thanks !

A question though, is it a must to set Display Page: Thread Viewing. Can it be on Edit Profile instead ?

cinq, could put it anywhere you want.

as for running the UPDATE `userfield` SET `fieldX` = 'Undisclosed'; query. It's unnecessary, IMO. You could have an empty field in the first line and set it as default. Then using <if condition="$post[fieldX]"> flag code here </if> would give what you want.

Change this option:
Display Page: Edit Profile

I went al litte further and created a gif called "Undisclosed.gif" and placed it in the flags folder on the server. I then removed the IF statement from the postbit so that it would show the undisclosed gif file as the default. The undisclosed gif is basically a small image reminding the user to update their profile :-)

Here you go-

So, all I have to do is remove that IF statement and this will work? Forgive me I am a n00b.
