This mod is related to:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=337772.0

I would like a mod that would do the following..
Sexual Orientation. Bisexual, Homosexual, Hetero-sexual, Not sure.
This could be done using custom profile fields, however.. it would need to come up under the gender on profile page, and custom profile fields are impossible to put in that position. As far as I know. This would mean a dropdown menu on Forum Profile Edit, also set to be put on registration, and will also be displayed on the Profile under Gender.

Gender Male, Female, Transman/FTM, Transwoman/MTF, Bigender/Androgyne.
This would mean a further enhanced menu for the gender selection. This will also involve the percentage of gender towards popularity on the forum, to include the further genders too. There is a mod similar, however.. not quite the same as it isn't that detailed.

Here is a list of what the gender images may be.
Reference:
Male = Up symbol, Female = Down symbol

Use the reference to work out the symbols for the following;
Transman = Male
Transwoman = Female
FTM = Male
MTF = Female
Bigender/Androgynous = Male & Female
Not sure(Haven't figured out the true identity) = ? (A question mark for confused)

If there is a mod like this, let me know. If not, can it be made by anyone please?

Why not ask the author of the above mod about expanding it sometime?

I did that also. I thought it'd make it a bit more useful to do a seperate post too.

What you're asking for is pretty complex; far more complex than the mod you refer to. I'm honestly not sure this would be written by someone unless they have a pressing need for something very similar, or you're prepared to pay for it.

Please also read the guidelines in READ ME: How To Request A Modification (Mod)

Firstly in profile field add a new field
Select show on registration if you wish them to register with the info,
Next profile section select, account settings.
Next select view on topic,
Next choose placement standard with title,
Next input setting field select box ,, choose genders you wish and add.
Next chose privacy,,, suggest users can see only admin can edit, then select active.
This will put it on the post page and on the profile page
I suggested account settings because if it is a specific gender type you don't want them to change it without your permission and doing it this way makes them put there password in to change which then informs you.
If you don't want it on either the post page or the profile page then change it from account settings to forum profile or look and layout. If you want it to be hidden then change to user cannot see.
As for its position on the post template,, these clever people here will tell you the easy way to do it.
Copy what I have put and you will see it appear on post temp and profile.

To allow images create a member group and upload image for that member group, theme default images,,, gay.gif etc give member that permission and it will appear on post and profile tewmplates. Instead of the square coloured images.
I have done this with Zodiac signs and each one of my members now has their sign in each area of their profile and post template,,,, oops just noticed how old this is,,, sorry

I think transvesti is not a sex, is just a life-style and a way of living, but, genetically, are only 2 sexes, well, that's what i think...

Garou

People that consider themselves transgendered generally believe that its a genetic trait not just a lifestyle like cross-dressing. Mentally and emotionally they are one gender even though physically they look like another.
