UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6 Mod Questions How to make sure ubbmisc.cgi saves extra profile fields?

Aaaah this is so frustrating.

I added the Image under Username hack, and I'm getting no errors, no nothing, except no image under the username! I updated threads, updated general settigs, put in the URL to the user image in my profile, and.... when I went to post, no image showed up. So I go back to my profile and there's nothing typed into the User Image box.... what do I do?

Lets start at square one.
Have a look in a member file, is there a line there that links to an image??

Nope. No line that links to an image.

Ok well thats a start. Id say you missed something during the hack. In the sub that writes to the members file, it must contain some new line of code to add the information about the image that is associated with that username.

It also may not be working because your Member fields are not in order. Post your member files and print MEMBERSHIP fields from your ubbmisc.cgi here and I'll see for you.

Well, I've got two instances of PRINT MEMBERSHIP

1.Print profile fields to file

2. [create registration file]

The $PostInfoField is the Last Post in Profile hack and it only told me to insert it in that one space - and that hack works fine....

I'm not sure what you mean by posting member files? Just the contents of the UserNumber.cgi file? Or something from Ubbmisc?

Ok the variable UserImageURL may be blank, hence its not being passed from one form to another.

find this line

print MEMBERSHIP ("$in{'UserImageURL'}n");

Just above it add

print MEMBERSHIP ("Test, the next line is my ImageURL variablen");


Now it should print that line to the file. Try it and make sure it does.

OI!

Thank you so much BassTeQ!!! It worked!
