[guider]

So tell me, will this thing work on any theme using 1.0.5? If not, what are approved for it?

If you're using SMF 1.0.5, use this MOD file. I put in the required corrections from this thread, except for language corrections. Again, not for package manager. About 10 minutes install time. Works fine on default theme.

However, on the SMFgeneration theme, the fields are present but the text in front of them is not. Not in admin nor profile. I'm not too clear atm, what parameter needs changing?

I am using  SMF 1.1 Beta 3 Public.

Sorry, newbie question, how do you "run" a php file without just opening it into a text editor?

[guider]

Just enter the full location in your browser. Eg. www.site.com/phpfile.php.

Does anyone have a site that has this mod installed?  The link in the mods section goes to a test forum that does not even have the bio mod installed.    I would like to see what it looks like.  Thanks

I am using 1.1 RC1, and I'm trying to install this mod manually. I've had success so far with most every manual mod install I've done so far (I have to do them all manually pretty much because I have so many installed). I ran the db file just fine, no problems there. Then opened up the .mod file and started following directions. First few edits went fine, but then I started running across code in the .mod file that was nowhere to be found in the file I was supposed to be editing.

I edit php files in Dreamweaver, and use the "find and replace" function in order to jump to the next block of code that needs to be edited. By the time I got halfway through the .mod file almost nothing was matching up anymore! I couldn't find the correct code to add to, and was afraid to "take a guess" because that's too much work to have to undo if it isn't right.

So, just curious what the problem I'm having could be. Is this mod not compatible with 1.1 RC1? For example, the code I'm supposed to be looking for to add to is in memberlist.php and looks like this:

Code Select Expand

// Select the members from the database.
$request = db_query("
SELECT
mem.memberName, mem.realName, mem.websiteTitle, mem.websiteUrl, mem.posts,
mem.ID_GROUP, mem.ICQ, mem.AIM, mem.YIM, mem.MSN, mem.emailAddress,

But when I use the find and replace function there is no such code anywhere in memberlist.php. Instead, my code looks like this:

Code Select Expand

// Select the members from the database.
$request = db_query("
SELECT mem.ID_MEMBER
FROM {$db_prefix}members AS mem
LEFT JOIN {$db_prefix}log_online AS lo ON (lo.ID_MEMBER = mem.ID_MEMBER)
LEFT JOIN {$db_prefix}membergroups AS mg ON (mg.ID_GROUP = IF(mem.ID_GROUP = 0, mem.ID_POST_GROUP,mem.ID_GROUP))
WHERE mem.is_activated = 1
ORDER BY " . $sort_methods[$_REQUEST['sort']][$context['sort_direction']] . "
LIMIT $_REQUEST[start], $modSettings[defaultMaxMembers]", __FILE__, __LINE__);
printMemberListRows($request);
mysql_free_result($request);

if ($_REQUEST['sort'] == 'realName')
{
$last_letter = '';
foreach ($context['members'] as $i => $dummy)
{
$this_letter = substr($context['members'][$i]['name'], 0, 1);

if ($this_letter != $last_letter)
{
$context['members'][$i]['sort_letter'] = $this_letter;
$last_letter = $this_letter;
}
}
}
}

Those two are nothing alike. So, am I doing something wrong or is this mod not compatible with the version of smf I have installed? Or am I just missing something? This was only one example of the code not matching up. I finally gave up and placed my backed up copies of the edited files back in the folders because it was starting to feel hopeless. Any help out there?

[azjr247]

yeah, plz help.  I want to install this mod    and i have  smf 1.1 rc 1 !!!

[huijaa]

Cool, thanks Norbert!

Its a little less comprehensive than I initially had hoped for.   Might be tweakable into something neat though

Can anyone make this 1.1 rc1 compatible ??      

I just start to make this mod compatible with 1.1 rc1
