Custom Profile Field Mod

[lesmond]

Great mod ty

I have a required field that ask the member to add there Union number upon registration,  What I would like to know is there anyway that I could add a search for the field, under the Search for members page

I am running SMF 1.1.10

@steelsheen
As long as you have english and english-utf8 (or any other language file, well technically on the index.{language}.php is required) it will be an option to use that language.  If that is not the case then there is something else wrong with your forum.

[Kindred]

lesmond...   that would take some custom coding.

however, SMF 2 already has that capability by default with no further modifications

[Angelina Belle]

How easy is it to migrate custom profile fields to SMF2, and get the contents properly stowed in the right tables?

[Kindred]

it's pretty easy... but you have to run some SQL statements after you create the new custom fields in smf 2.   Look back in this thread... we've listed them at least twice.

[Angelina Belle]

Thanks!  I finally found it! 

Silly me -- I had tried SMF's search feature to search this topic for single terms like "upgrade", "2.0" "SQL", "SET" "UPDATE", "join" and even "table", but had no luck at all. 

I guess I've learned not to depend on SMF2.0's search feature when I actually want to find something.

So I randomly flipped back to March and discovered a helpful posting, which can be found by searching on "BINGO" or "convert", but not any of the other terms.

So -- update the contents of the field variable in smf_themes for each of the CP fields to reflect the newly-created SMF2.0 profile fields. That's easy.

Thanks.

There is the option for fields to be viewable only to admin, I would like to extend that view to Global Moderators as well. How can this be done?

Thanks!

[Kindred]

you would have to modify the code (not sure exactly where) 

it's not a standard permission, if I recall correctly.

[J-Bird]

Thank you Kindred.
I suspected that was the case.

Where are the fields located in the Database?

I need to be able to call up each field individually in a post and on the profile.

Thanks,

[Kindred]

try reading the thread? This has been answered at least 5 times.


So... for you folks who can't be bothered...    the field values are stored in the themes table

[J-Bird]

Can anyone help me with the code changes I need?

Umm, well everything seems to be working just fine. utf8 is the only option for any of the languages.

Nevermind...I really don't feel like messing with it

Nice Mod, thanks!

Have a German translation for you:

Works for me so far, should be ok.

I just have one problem: the Custom Fields are not displayed in posts, whatever setting I choose. My template is fire_09, could this be the problem?

[Kindred]

yes... as with any mod on the 1.1.x series of smf, you will have to manually install the mod code into any custom themes (i.e. any theme other than the default theme)

[patdj]

Sure! Did that already for other mods I fighted with today, just forgot, thank you! Now it's working. 

[CodeDev]

If like me you get an error like this:

Code Select Expand

Call to undefined function DisplayFieldPosts Pictures()

Here is the workaround:

in Display.template.php
FIND:

Code Select Expand

DisplayFieldPostsPictures();
BEFORE ADD:

Code Select Expand


global $sourcedir;
require_once($sourcedir . '/CustomProfile.php');



in PersonalMessage.template.php
FIND:

Code Select Expand

DisplayFieldPostsPictures();
BEFORE ADD:

Code Select Expand


global $sourcedir;
require_once($sourcedir . '/CustomProfile.php');


And that should get you rid of those annoying and fatal errors!

is it possible to send an admin/all admins a message/email whenever a field is editted? Or have like an approval function. if some1 wants to edit a field... The admin would have to verify it first?

Thx, great mod!




To come back at some1 else's question:

The fields are stored in SMF_Themes.

[Huskyteer]

Hi - I'm having a problem with this mod. Apologies if this has been dealt with lots of times but I didn't have any luck with the Search.

I've set up two custom fields which appear on the registration screen as mandatory fields. This works fine, and the fields show up in the user's profile - but they're blank. The information doesn't get transferred from registration to profile.

What might I be doing wrong? I'm using SMF 1.1.10, and I had to install the mod manually.

I tried switching back to the default theme, which seems to be the answer to a lot of problems, but no joy.

Thanks!

Sending a message when the field is edited is possible; in theory you'd drop a call it to send a PM to the admins. Having an approval function is a LOT more work though.

At its simplest, you'd just add a hook into addSettings() in CustomProfile.php to send a PM, however that wouldn't be smart enough to check what had changed - simply that it had been called upon to be changed, so you'd get another query, pull out the existing values, then do a comparison on them. It's not a huge amount of work but it's enough to be getting on with.
