help with postbit template
whenever we clicked a thread to view, we can see who post the thread or reply, where they register, their location ...on the left hand side of the forum..
how can i add one more thing below the username for eg. birth date so that every user can know when they are born when they view the thread... this is how i change in the administration part..
in the postbit template, i add this:
<?php
<smallfont>Birth Date: <b>$birth</b></smallfont><br>
?>below this:
<?php
<normalfont><b>$post[username]</b></normalfont><br>
<smallfont>$post[usertitle]</smallfont><br>
?>and in showthread.php, i add few lines of code....
<?php
//get birthdate
$get=$DB_site->query(\"SELECT uid, birth from personal where uid=$bbuserinfo[userid]\");
$numrows_gettotal = mysql_num_rows($get);
if ($numrows_gettotal > 0)
{
list ($uid, $birth) = mysql_fetch_row($get);
}
?>before this code:
<?php
eval(\"dooutput(\\"\".gettemplate(\"showthread\").\"\\");\");
?>the result is, it only show 'Birth Date: ' under usertitle but nv show the birthdate...
wat is wrong with my code?? pls help...

but i retreived the data from showthread.php using this:
<?php//get birthdate
$get=$DB_site->query(\"SELECT uid, birth from personal where uid=$bbuserinfo[userid]\");
$numrows_gettotal = mysql_num_rows($get);
if ($numrows_gettotal > 0)
{
list ($uid, $birth) = mysql_fetch_row($get);
}
?>

vB aparently creates an associative array with the fields of the user table as the keys. 'birthday' is a field in the user table, so $postbit[birthday] is part of the array.

Oh. I'm not sure. The code you have is what I would have tried, but then again, I'm not familiar with the vB source.
Have you asked over at http://www.vbulletin.org?
You'll probably get the best results over there.
