Module: Enhanced Custom Profiles

hey,
it seems the update of the birthday module was the key , everything is now working great , thanks alot guys ,
just now have to fix the birthday module , showing in all the edit menus in the control panel :D any tips :D

Thanks again guys :D so much!

This is a great module.

Someone else asked about this two years ago, and I don't know if Joe was able to adopt it. Or maybe I just can't figure it out.

I want people to have to fill in their real name when they register, and for that data to be automatically part of their profile, like username and passwordl. Then I would like them to be able to decide if their real name is shown on their profile, just as with emails.

Is this possible? I'm using the emerald template.

Yes it is very possible. I am sure it is possible with this module too, but I don't use it myself.

Instead, I have created a custom template, created custom profile fields using the admin panel, and manually changed the HTML in the register.tpl, profile.tpl, cc_start.tpl, and cc_usersettings.tpl

I am not sure how the module works, but you will want to make sure that those files are effected.

register.tpl = registration
profile.tpl = view a users profile
cc_start.tpl = view your own profile in your Control Center
cc_usersettings.tpl = edit your profile in the Control Center.

Hi, This is untested but it might help you reaching your goal:

Put this into register.tpl:

Language: PHP
<label for="real_name">{LANG->RealName} *</label><input type="text" name="real_name" id="real_name" size="15" />

You add this as a single file under /mods:

Language: PHP
<?php 
/* phorum module info
title: user_management | Real Name Registration
category: user_management
author: korsakov
desc: Including real name within registration process.
version: 1.0
hook: before_register|mod_yourMod_before_register
hook: after_register|mod_yourMod_after_register
*/
 
function mod_yourMod_before_register ($data) {
  if (empty($_POST[';real_name';])) $data[';error';] = ';You forgot to enter your real name!';;
  return $data;
}
 
function mod_yourMod_after_register ($userdata) {
  if (isset($_POST[';real_name';])) $real_name = htmlspecialchars(trim($_POST[';real_name';]), ENT_COMPAT, $PHORUM["DATA"]["HCHARSET"]);
 
  $userdata = array(
    "user_id"   => $userdata[';user_id';],
    "real_name"    => $real_name
  );
 
  phorum_api_user_save($userdata);
 
  return $userdata;	
}
 
?>

Thank you. What should be the filename?

As long as you place this script under /mods you can name it as you wish. The "title" for the module will be displayed on the "Modules" page of the admin interface.

Thank you, korsakov. Your code worked great.

Any way to add custom profile fields that can only be edited by admin?
