Custom Profile Field Mod Request

[rsw686]

rsw686 i have Custom Profile Field Mod installed but not in use
can i just remove mod then install yours without the dbconvert.php

Yep you sure can. The dbconvert was to migrate the user entered data.

It should be noted as a warning:

Since this mod is not on the SMF mod site, it has not been reviewed by the SMF team.

Is there any way of preventing members editing their own custom profile fields (or at least some of them) with this mod?

Ignore me - got it sorted

I made an improved version of that mod that you can find here

hxxp:wgnrs.dynalias.com/smf/customprofile.html [nonactive]

With it you can restrict the editing and viewing to member groups.

ah the custom field profile mod didn't work for me, don't know why!

can i ask why you not got this mod approved by smf rsw686

There are multiple threads on it. They wouldn't approve it because the interface was the same as this mod. Even though the underlying code is completely different. Not like I can really change the interface as I'm limited to the SMF modifications pre-built deal. Regardless it doesn't really matter as I'm not using the mod for SMF 2.0. I wrote a script to migrate the data to the built in interface.

cheers rsw686 i was just wondering

Hi - since upgrading to this mod from the standard CPF mod, I have been finding that the CPF information has been randomly disappearing from members profiles?

I can't figure out why it is doing this or any pattern to when it does it, I just know that it is doing it. Help!!??

[fgoc]

After looking through the profile_members table in the SQl database, it has completely dropped the records relating to the members whose CPF data has gone from their profile. Any idea what would cause this to happen? "Something" must be causing this as only I have access to the SQL database and only I have access to edit the CPF fields on the forum.

Big help required as I can;t just have data dropping out of the DB like this?

Thanks

Paul

Sorry for the triple post, but I have just managed to replicate this on my test account by changing the avatar. Is there any way to stop this? Is anyone else having this issue?


EDIT:
It happens whenever ANY information in the member's profile is edited by them or Admin. All of the CPF info that is not editable by the member's membergroup is deleted.

i finally got round to installing this mod and i must say its exactly what i wanted 
i have set it up to display real names of members within groups
just wondering if it would be possible to see these name when viewing list of members in admin cp
