You're welcome! It was fun writing this mod. The changes may not be that big but getting each little part working taught me new things about how SMF is organized and how the various data contexts get loaded.

The hover was the last part that really put the icing on the cake. I don't think many people will want to enable the "Username:" display in topic view, but enable Show username in view profile hover and you can see the real username by hovering over the member name. That way it's subtle and takes an active mouse over to see any change from the normal display. Unobservant members won't even notice that field but clever mods and admins will know how to use it. :)

As far as the "Joined:" and "Location:" displays, they are standard fixtures on other forum softwares such as vBulletin, and I just can't understand why SMF doesn't have it. That's what motivated me to write this mod package, to put those features in SMF, and I hope everybody likes it!

IMO I think they weren't put there because then the actual profile would serve less purpose.

Is there a way to make this work with SMF 1.1.9?
Can i manually install it?
Would it be too much trouble to make a compatible version with older versions of smf?
Thanks

I manage to show the joined and location, but the problem with the location field is that the date is shown in this format: Julio 10, 2009, 02:35:58

And i want it to be like this: Julio 2009

I use this code
if ($message['member']['registered'] != '')
               echo '
                                                              <div class="windowbg4">Miembro desde:', $message['member']['registered'], '</div>';


Please help me

just tried this mod on 2.0RC1.2 and it installed apart from one bit of code in the load.php file but i think this is just for the profilemouse hover part, which i have no interest in.
the rest of the mod works perfect. Even in my custom theme.
As the mod was originally written for beta 4 i think the code in load.php is slightly different for RC1.2

No, the mod author left the community late 2008.

Thank you for the wonderful mod!  I thought I'd let everybody know that when I updated my forum from 2.0 RC5 to 2.0 Gold, I had to reinstall all my mods.  This mod installed without issues and without emulation.  Hope this info helps someone!

Just tried this Mod on 2.0.2, I just wanted the location field to show on post topics and it works fine without emulation. FWIW.

just installed on SMF 2.0.5 without emulation and without problems. It works ;)

Thank you radu81. :) I've been away from the SMF business for quite some time, and now that I've returned my first order of business is to update all my mod packages. I'm putting the highest priority on those reported to have no problems, and if it works fine on 2.0.5 then it's likely to work fine on 2.0.6 too!

You can expect an official release of this mod package quite soon.

It works also on 2.0.7 ;)

Thanks for the info. I need this mod on my own forum too! I'll update it later today or tomorrow latest. It's now #1 on my TODO list! :)

Deprecated, could you add some screenshot to the mod page along with the update?
How about sharing a link to your forum?

Thanks,

Yes I have a screenshot, it's just that it fell off the image host due to age. I'll add the screen shots to a new image host, or re-shoot them if I can't find them. (I'm pretty good at backing up stuff so I prolly have them if I dig deep enough.)

I prefer to keep an isolation between forums I own and/or forums I administrate and SMF because they are not related and I see no reason to have them interact, and can think of a few reasons that I prefer them to not. It reminds me of the Jerry Seinfeld episode when he finds out two of his friends are seeing each other without him! :D

I'll go dig a bit and see if I can find those shots...

Here ya go:

(http://thumbnails112.imagebam.com/30413/ef8317304125835.jpg)

To tell the truth, part of this doesn't make sense to me. I wrote it 4 years ago for an older version of SMF, some beta? There's no telling what features were or were not in that version that may have been implemented in later SMF.

I'll update it and probably change the fields around. I have to review the latest SMF and find out what shows in the post-bit by default, which you can enable, and which aren't there but some would want to be there.

One thing for sure, there are things from the profile that some forums want to include in the post-bit that you can't include there without a mod. I'll figure out which they are and add them in the new update.

This works great on 2.0.9 as well.  Thanks!

Thanks for the info. Funny, I installed it in my 2.0.9 but thought maybe 2.0.9 had just added the functionality to the base code. I'll go check the 2.0.9 compatibility box.

Works for you, works for me, must be a winner! :)

Thanks again for the report. With my work load I don't have the time to test every package with every new release.
