The extra profile field is its own template, made by the product XML.

Hmm.. I just can't get this to work. My board is heavily modified, but I don't see which one could possibly conflict with this profile field hack. I'm not very familiar with how plugins work exactly, but is their a certain location I should look at and disable other plugins that might be conflicting with this hack?

[futuredood]

Wired_1, can I send you admin access to check this out? I think I've tried everything.

[Wired1]

Sure. Can't think off the top of my head what would do it though. doesn't make sense, as all the hack really does is to mark profile fields to be editable in a different location.

[Wired1]

I'm thinking of doing a upgrade for this hack. Basically, instead of storing info in profile fields, it'd store them in a SQL table. This would make it easier to have multiple pages of the same item (e.g. car stats, PC specs, etc), although it would still suffer from the same issue this current version has, where if you want multiple pages with different specs in each one, then you'd have to install the hack multiple times.

Comments?

in the text file instructions (and the extra plugins) would be replaced by something else (just add a 2 at the end for instance). You'd also need to add extra vbphrases and change them accordingly throught the plugin and text file instructions.

If you wanted to you could have them all in the same page, just depends on how much extra coding you'd want to do for the custom page.

Can you give a clearer instruction on how to create multiple pages? When I searched the code in the .xml and .txt instructions, do=extra came up only once each. Also, I'm not sure how to upload a .xml product copy since it asks you to overwrite the previous one. Thanks.

I'll try to get to it tonight or tomorrow, a bit under the weather currently. Migraines SUCK. Will probably crash when I get home.

mmmm
I think it's not bad

[futuredood]

hey wired, how's it lookin today?

[Arissa]

I've tried to get it to show up on the members profile by using your other hack. It didn't work. What I really want is to create another page where the extra fields are shown with a link to the page in their profile.

bio.php would work.

This is UNTESTED, but unless I missed an edit here or there, it should work. Basically created a new product and updated names of all the plugins and calls and whatnot.

In otherwords, you'd like a link on their member page that goes to a new page where these extra specs can be seen? If so, shouldn't be that hard to whip up. If this is what you want, do me a fav, post this in that thread so I'll get the update in my email. That way I'll remember when I get home

I did a quick install of this and received this error when I went to the Profile Field Manager in AdminCP:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '\"', expecting ')' in /path/to/public_html/admincp/profilefield.php on line 383

And line 383 is this:
"$vbphrase[options]: $vbphrase[extra_options2]"

I'm pretty sure I followed the instructions correectly. I just added extra_options2 lines right under the original extra_options. But, I've got to go for the day, so will try again later tonight, thanks Wired.

Did you place a 6 or 7 behind those two values? I've updated the txt file.
