Custom profile field icons.

[Poison Light]

Well when you create a custom profile field group with some fields you can fill in a profile icon.

But when you go to the profile you get only the profile fields with the value.



Why is there not an option to show the field icon?

Example:



I custom made it by replacing the customField__generic with

<if test="$f->parsed != ''">

<span class="row_title">{$f->raw_data['pf_title']}</span>

<div class="row_data">

<if test="genericIsArray:|:is_array($f->parsed)">

{parse expression="implode( '

', $f->parsed )"}

<else>

<if test="$f->raw_data['pf_icon']"><img src='{$this->settings['board_url']}/public/{$f->raw_data['pf_icon']}' alt=''/></if> {$f->parsed}

</else></if>

</div>

</if>

But i think it should be a standard feature because now the profile icon field is just useless? (Except some contact information fields build in IPB)

Bump, this cant be an option in ipb 3.3? :P

I would like to know as well.

There are custom profile fields that I have setup to show an image. They will show in the threads, but not the profiles. I'd rather they at least show in the profiles rather than the threads. I'd rather not overload the threads with more images, but need them in the profiles.

I still can't get images to show up.

I just don't understand why stuff like this is not default. If we create a custom profile field that uses images, they should show up.

I know this is off topic, but it would be great to have those fields clickable, so when someone enters a URL or ID, you can click on them and it will take you to their profile, kind of like the default profile fields set in place (Website, Skype, AIM). Or, IPB could just "get with the times" in a sense, and add 3 or 4 more default fields - Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, LastFM.

Bump, the icons are useless now...

Is there to achieve this ?

Not any that I have come across. I wish there was.

Isn't the icon showing when you add a new custom profile field? Or what are you looking for?

Sorry to bump an old thread but why hasn't anyone made this a mod yet? Also, has anyone come up with a new code that works?
