Location repeated twice in profile view and missing country

[Ninja ZX-10RR]

Hi everyone I have a problem with my profile view window, as you can see from the attachment it shows the location twice and ignoring the country completely.
I would like the country to be shown and of course one of the 2 location tabs to go away. Also is it possible to change the order of those tabs? Like having the country before the exact location?
If I need to attach any files tell me and I will.
Thanks in advance.

How about attaching Themes/default/Profile.template.php?

You could look in there as well. Looks like you have duplicate lines, eh?

Of course when I installed some profile mods I was still very much a noob and I screwed up something 100% xD

I think I found that the problem is around strings 190-200 but i still don't know how to add the country correctly >.<

And as always thank you for your reply mashby

Lines 199 through 202 were the duplicates, depending on where you wanted to see Location, I've removed those in the attached. Is that betterer? Wondering if this guy did something funny on installation?
Next Post Level Mod
Maybe not though.

Cool I would have done the same but asking doesn't hurt

First problem completely fixed, now up to the second one... How can I add the country to be shown in the summary view above the location tab?

Is that the result of a Mod or a custom profile field?

[Ninja ZX-10RR]

Yes it's from "Country flags" mod, I was just updating it but nothing changed actually.
And well it's not pretty much active as a mod support topic... So lol if you actually know how to do that please tell me so I can do it and you could add it yourself to that topic as a new feature. Many people asked how to do this and that but the only answer has been "you need to edit this" but without providing any other informations about it...

If you go to the page where you downloaded the mod from, there's a nice Parse option. That shows you all of the edits that would be made upon successful installation. Download your site files and have a look file by file. Also, if the edits weren't made when you installed the mod, notifications on what wasn't edited should have occurred. Do you remember that happening? And where is the Country Flags mod not working?

[Ninja ZX-10RR]

It was all successfull when I installed it, it's just not a default function of the mod AFAIK... But I think that's stupid. Why would I want to add a country field if nobody could see it in the profile view? =_=
IMHO it should be working in the profile summary as that page is the one everybody can see when clicking on an user's profile. It already works in posts so...

[mashby]

Have you, umm, enabled it?!?

[Ninja ZX-10RR]

I might be dumb for being too tired sometimes but now it's 6 p.m. so yes I did it I enabled it on the profile view from admin, miscellaneous, etc...
It works perfectly except for that annoying detail

[mashby]

The code from the mod is in the file you attached (and I subsequently edited). The mod was last updated June 18th so the support topic should be the place to ask.

If you are talking about the Country Flags from SMFHacks then they clearly state that the flag is shown on the members post. You can ask in their support page for assistance in placing the flag on the profile.

I'll try but I highly doubt I would be given an answer. Similar problems have been answered with "you need to edit X file" without any details and as I'm not a coder I wouldn't be able to do it lol
I'll try anyway but I can't really mark this as solved as it's not. If I can manage to do this I will be posting the necessary file edits to get it working and mark as solved after that.
Thanks for your help I appreciate it very much

Of course I am talking about that, if you read the whole post you can find many sentences clearly pointing to it.

Thanks for your reply, anyway.

Aha, yeah, now that I see what the mod is doing, the Modify Profile function is what's visible, but not the results of that in the summary view. Wondering what this would do? I don't have the mod installed so I'm doing an educated edit. If it fails, the attachment above is your failsafe (backup).

I did read the entire thead and I did not find 'many sentences' refering to the mod. There are two country mods that are found when searching by 'country flags'. You failed to add a link or the mod authors name. I am not a mind reader. You also failed to understand that the mod only adds the flag to the posters post profile. The design is not 'stupid' as you implied; the design is working as intended by the author.

Thank you again...
Hmm... LOL nothing has changed XD only the file size from what I can see... No errors in the error log and all profile views look exactly the same... 

@Lou69 It was clearly stated "Country Flags", nothing else. And if you search it (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?action=search;basic_search=Country+flags) you can find 2 mods, the aforementioned one and also another one called "Country Flags Avatars" (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=644) that has nothing to deal with me for 2 reasons: the first is that I never mentioned it and I clearly said "Country Flags" (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=417) and the second reason is that the latter mod works only in SMF 1 and this is SMF 2.0.x support

And I'm just being nice in helping you here and possibly should have just suggested asking in the support topic for the mod. Is it possible to get a URL where you have just updated that file? Or maybe you haven't? I added this bit:

Code Select Expand

// Show the country they hail from!
if (isset($message['member']['country_flag']) && !empty($modSettings['country_flag_show']) && !empty($message['member']['country_flag']))
{
$flags = CountryFlag();
echo '
<dt>', $txt['country_flag'], ':</dt>
<dd><img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/flags/', $message['member']['country_flag'], '.png" alt="', $message['member']['country_flag'], '" title="', $flags[$message['member']['country_flag']], '" /></dd>';
}

As it was not originally designed to display on the profile, what the coder has to do is determine the snippet(s) of code the original mod uses to execute it displaying on the post and do the same thing to the profile, sometimes you get lucky & can just copy and paste in the appropriate file/location... but more often its just a little more complicated than that and often requires editing multiple files, its always going to be faster to contact the author in that case, good module authors relish this kind of interaction

I'll take a look at this after dinner thank you meantime
