Profile Additions
30 September 2005, 15:12
Basically I want to add new fields in the Pop Profile that will include more information on the members page or anywhere else I choose since I would be able to pull the information from the Database.
How would I go about on doing this?
Things I would need help with: Creating a new field in the DB that ties in with the users.
How to access the information.
I want to make a few new form field with dropsdowns. Based on the option the user selects it will add that information to the database for future use.<

Did you get any further with this?
I've added some stuff to the users profile but was thinking of doing something fun with a couple of dropdowns =) <

Not yet, but with new stuff I learned while making the avatar mod I feel more confident.<

There once was a mod to do this, but it was never updated to the current code base, I will dig out what I have (will take a few days), if anyone wants to update it for the current code then feel free.<

That mod is working on Image Portal 3.05, and I have worked on it to implement it on my forum.
I'll can work again on it to change the italian word to English, and changing the references to language string, but all this only from january, as I am going on vacation ...
If no solution will be posted, I'll post the mod changed.<

I did play with it more on a test forum. Never did decide to make a mod out of it, just updated the base code to allow another field. Didn't write down the steps either, its nothing I can look up. But I don't have the time as of now either.<

i think i've done what your looking to do as you can see at my site, http://www.nightclubtonight.com
username: test password: test
if this is what your trying to accomplish, it takes alot of coding. you need to change about four diffrent files in about thirty diffrent places each. but i'll try to help ya out if this is indeed what your looking to do.

I don't see anything different except cell phone addition.
I'll go ahead and start working on that.<

For what it's worth, I had to add a field to the profile for my site. I've never released it as a mod because the functionality is so limited - I run a site for alumni of a high school, and added a field to disply the last two digits of members' graduating years. I made it a madatory field, and display it both in topics and in the Member Profile.
While I have never released it, I did document it just as I would any other mod. You can download it, if you like, and look at the readme and the changed files. If so, you can get it HERE. The zipped file contains all the files that were altered, as well as the readme.<
