Hi.
Don't knof if this is the right forum to post suggestions - but just move it if not.
I have been using Snitz for some time, and I'm using a lot of energy every time I need a new field in the member details. E.g. complete address and phonenumber or membernumber or something.
Sometime in the future I would like if the member information was rewritten to dynamic fields, where the administrator would be able to create new fields: Something like this:
Field Name Field Description Field Type (string, number, mail, yes/no, check, radio etc)
and then a lot of control about where and how to show it: On Profile: [Show/Hide], [Userselected Show/Hide] On Register (same as above) + [Mandatory/Optional] On Edit: (same as above) + ReadOnly, Edit by admin only.
There are possible other usefull options, but every time I add a new field I have to write code to handle the above.

I suppose this could be done in the same way that the CONFIG_NEW table is configured... would make a nice mod. |

I don't knink it would be very easy to make as a mod. There are too many lines of code that uses the MEMBER table. It would take a complete rewrite of the "kernel". :-( |

you're right now that I think about it....
but most information retrieved from the members table is done through functions and sub-routines, not specifically as per each time information is needed from the table.
But still, would take alot of re-writing...
It would however, be possible to create a new table (as a modification) in the same format as the CONFIG_NEW table, and configure optional member detail information in that, which would be viewable via the member profile only... |
