Geeklog Forums

Is there anyway to add, delete, & modify the fields in the user profiles? Also, is it possible to add a field that only appears under a certain group of members profile. Thanks a lot, Christopher Kiernan

There are some hacks around that do this (e.g. the forum plugin includes code for additional fields in the profile). Geeklog 1.3.8 will also include an extension to the Plugin API so that plugins can add their own fields without having to modify core Geeklog files. bye, Dirk

hi Dirk & folks,

i'm running 1.3.8-2 and would like to add the following fields to the user's profile:

Organization
Phone
Fax
etc.

could you please point me in the right direction on how to achieve this using the Plugin API extentions?

mahalo in advance!

There's some information in the plugin documentation. Unfortunately, the Plugin Developers Guide hasn't been updated with the new Plugin API functions that were introduced in 1.3.8.

bye, Dirk

Just wondering if any one has been sucessful doing this. If so could some one please expline how. Thanks in advance

There's a sample plugin and the current version of the forum plugin also uses the new API functions.

bye, Dirk

How would one go about implementing it in forum?

Look in the forum documentation.
