Search by additional profile field?

[Robert Basil]

I am looking for a way to search by an added profile filed (i.e. $userinfo[field3])

I have tried a few things using the memberlist.php for reference, but no luck.

Any hints?

bump.

I'm also interested in doing the same thing. i would like users to be able to search by city and state.

So I am guessing that this cannot be done?

I'm not asking that someone do this for me, just point me in the right direction. :)

I'm not going to write this one, but this should give someone enough to be getting on with...

Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.

This code snippet will perform a simple text match against a custom user field - so if you were searching with $fieldnumber = 2 (Location) and $searchstring was "New", then it would pick up all users from New York, Newcastle etc...
