Parse BBC: yes
Text to display before field: <url=http://www.simplemachines.org/>
Text to display after field: </url>

[Mulgarus]

yea, BUT i don't want to show the entire url in their profile or posts.

I've corrected my posting.
Doing it this way the URL is not displayed

[Mulgarus]

for x sample

http://s3.ikariam.org/index.php?view=city&id=166849

I know how to make a hyperlink, just not with it working with this custom field mod like i want it to
I would want them to enter their city ID# in a custom field, but not show the entire url(which it does now).

Parse BBC: yes
Text to display before field: <url=http://s3.ikariam.org/index.php?view=city&id=%1>ID=
Text to display after field: </url>

generates the following HTML (if ID=123)


<a href="http://s3.ikariam.org/index.php?view=city&id=123>ID=123</url>

just to note...   this WAS already answered (several times) in this very thread.

Also...   you probably want something like

before: [ url=http://http://s3.ikariam.org/index.php?view=city&id=
after:]CITY[/url ]

(without the spaces and using whatever text you actually want displayed in place of CITY.
Using %1 will display the contents of the actual field....)

How do I clear all previous custom fields?  I've deleted them, but for some reason, when I add a new one, say an xfire field, it shows as a duplicate on the profile settings and summary. 

I think it has something to do with the Field ID, but I couldn't find where they were kept in my database.  I'd like to remove them, because I don't want the old ones, and my other admins aren't very inept with smf.

Please assist.


I even tried a search for "CP", in my database, and it came up with 0 results.


I uninstalled and reinstalled, and now even new fields are duplicating!  This is frustrating.

The field definitions are stored in the smf_settings table as CP{number}_type, CP{number}_id, ...

Should I uninstall mod, delete those definitions, and reinstall?

[Kindred]

why would you uninstall/reinstall?   Just remove any rows of CP1_type and CP1_id (and then do the same for the additional numbers, CP2, CP3, etc)

Another handy mod, quite easy additions, installed without a hitch.

I would also remove all the other CP rows like CP1_bbc, CP1_data1, ...

I deleted all CP related tables, and it still duplicates when I make new ones.

Dear all,

does anyone have a clue about the problem I posted earlier in this thread: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=79004.msg1674225#msg1674225

It can't be so hard, I just don't know where to start searching for the solution.

Thanks in advance for your help,
brans

@bfeo
I hope you deleted all relevant rows (not tables).
Sorry, don't know why you are still getting duplicates.


@brans
You could try to modify the mod
Look inside CustomProfile.php in function DisplayFieldsProfile(). There you could handle the output  yourself.

A question about modifying the mod:
I have made two additional settings and contacted winrules twice if he is interested.
No reply, no feedback, just ignorance.

As I am new in this community I do not know if there is a certain way to discuss such topics.
Is it?

Hi there
I am sorry to be a nuisance, but I have looked all through thread and can't find anything similar.
I have running 1.1.5 and have installed this mod - no probs.
The problem is, I can't seem to find the Fields in Features and Options.
Is there something else I need to do, or can someone point me to a reference sheet that I can use.....
Or perhaps it is just me having a "blonde" day.
Again, sorry to be a nuisance, I am very new to this and would appreciate anyone pointing me in the right direction.
Cheers
Di

@jako7444, you don't see whats highlighted in the red.

Correction.

[jako7444]

Hey there,
No, nothing looks different.  Nothing in red.

Sorry, meant to say - no - that heading is not there
