Topic: Custom profile fields in a global variable

[Alex4108]

Are the custom profile fields in any global variables I can get? 
Or do I have to use $smcFunc to pull them out of the database?

[CapadY]

take a look at $context[' user']

Where are you trying to use these variables?

[Alex4108]

take a look at $context[' user']

Did that, can't find them

Where are you trying to use these variables?

Sources/clanmgmt.php (A custom script)
Sources/Staff.php (Staff page mod)
and a few others

[CapadY]

Not ?

Try $context[' user_info']

I'm sure it's one of those two.

[Alex4108]

Not ?

Try $context[' user_info']

I'm sure it's one of those two.

(A write in to index.template.php)

Code: [Select]

function template_html_above() {

global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt, $modSettings;
        if (isset($_GET['debug']) && $context['user']['is_admin']) {

header("Content-type: text/plain"); // So our array is readable
global $user_info;
var_dump($user_info);
var_dump($context);
die();

}

I CTRL+F'd three times for three different custom values.  Didn't show up.

So you're trying to look at the values of other peoples' custom fields rather than the current users, in which case no magic variable will help you and you'll have to go query the database yourself for the fields you want.

Namely querying smf_themes where id_member is the user id and the variable column is derived from the name of your field (begins with cust_)
