philsbbs	Posted - 03 March 2008 : 11:10:30 Hi, I've applied the password mod (min/max/numberic) to my forum and also made more fields required fields. I need to get all members where m_profile_update = 1 to redirect to the profile page when they next log on. Once they update there profile with the new requirements I need the m_profile_update field to change to 0 so they are not prompted again. The trick is they must complete the requirements and not be able just go into the forum. Hope this makes sense. I could send private message and emails to this members but half will not do anything. <

Shaggy	Posted - 04 March 2008 : 04:00:05 Alternatively, dim a new variable to hold the value of M_PROFILE_UPDATE and assign the value using the chkUser function (see how the value of MemberID is assigned as an example) and then add a simple if check to redirect them to edit their profile if the value of that variable isn't as it should be (don't forget to add a condition to the if statement that excludes pop_profile.asp from the redirect or they'll be stuck in an endless loop). It might be an idea to add a message to the pop_profile login form informing them of why they've been redirected in case they think your forum's just banjaxed. <

cripto9t	Posted - 03 March 2008 : 14:50:38 edit - I'm assuming you have added the new field . Save this as "whatever.asp" and include it at the end of inc_header.asp. <% strSql = "SELECT M_PROFILE_UPDATE FROM " & strMembersTablePrefix & "MEMBERS " & _ "WHERE MEMBER_ID = " & MemberID set rs = my_Conn.Execute(strSql) if rs.EOF or rs.BOF then 'ID doesn't exist?? else blnUpdateStatus = rs("M_PROFILE_UPDATE") end if rs.close set rs = nothing if cLng(blnUpdateStatus) < 1 then 'Do Nothing else Response.Write "WRITE YOUR MESSAGE HERE" & vbNewLine & _ "<meta http-equiv=""Refresh"" content=""15; URL=pop_profile.asp?mode=Edit"">" & vbNewLine WriteFooter Response.End end if %> You'll have to add m_profile_update to the update statement in pop_profile.asp, after the required fields checks. Remove it when you think everyones updated. <
muzishun	Posted - 03 March 2008 : 14:40:35 What you're talking about isn't possible without writing a new MOD, as there is no m_profile_update field in the base version.<
