I was gonna add a dropdown to my custom field 4.

My intentions are to have the options, single, taken or dating

I know i still need to edit the register files, but for the public_edit_profile, I need to make sure im on the right track and not outta wack here.

Find This:
Code
if (($vars_registration{custom4_field_use} ne 'DEL') && ($vars_registration{customfield4} 

ne '')) {

	if ($vars_registration{custom4_field_use} eq 'REQ') {
		$B1 = '<b>';
		$B2 = '</b>';
	} else {
		$B1 = '';
		$B2 = '';
	}
after it add this:
Code
if($user_profile[18] eq 'Single')
{
	my $singleselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {
	my $singleselect = qq! !;
}

if($user_profile[18] eq 'Dating')
{
	my $datingselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {
	my $datingselect = qq! !;
}


if($user_profile[18] eq 'Taken')
{
	my $takenselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {
	my $takenselect = qq! !;
}

if($user_profile[18] eq '')
{
	my $takenselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {	
	my $takenselect = qq! !;
}
Find This:
Code
<input type="text" name="customfield4" value="$user_profile[19]" size="35" maxlength="80" />
Replace With:
Code
<select name="customfield4">
<option value="Single" $singleselect>$vars_wordlets_mods{single_option}</option>
<option value="Dating" $datingselect>$vars_wordlets_mods{dating_option}</option>
<option value="Taken" $takenselect>$vars_wordlets_mods{taken_option}</option>
</select>
and then in vars_wordlets_mods:
Code
q!single_option! => q!Single!,
q!dating_option! => q!Dating!,
q!taken_option! => q!Taken!,
Yes ? No ? Any help?

"my" scopes the variable to that block - you need to declare the variables using my outside of the if blocks.

Otherwise this looks like it should work...

instead of

Code
if($user_profile[18] eq 'Dating')
{
	my $datingselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {
	my $datingselect = qq! !;
}
do

Code
my $datingselect;
if($user_profile[18] eq 'Dating')
{
	$datingselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {
	$datingselect = qq! !;
}

It would probably be better to do it inline, now that I think about it:

Code
my $datingselect = ($user_profile[18] eq 'Dating' ?
        qq! selected="selected"! : "");

There's a nice guide at the bottom of cp2_membermanage. smile

The registration template is a far different animal than the edit template...

Ok so what about public_register_form

Find
Code
$vars_registration{customfield4}, "", "customfield4", "text", 35, 80, 0);
Replace with
Code
$vars_registration{customfield3}, "", "customfield3", "dropdown", { Single => $vars_wordlets_mods{single_option}, Dating => $vars_wordlets_mods{dating_option}, Taken => $vars_wordlets_mods{taken_option} }, [qw(Single Dating Taken)], Single);
I think theres gotta be more though?

Actually Im just gonna use the radio button, its easier it seems

so now I have this

Code
my $singleselect;
if($user_profile[18] eq 'Single')
{
	$singleselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {
	$singleselect = qq! !;
}
my $datingselect;
if($user_profile[18] eq 'Dating')
{
	$datingselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {
	$datingselect = qq! !;
}

my $takenselect;
if($user_profile[18] eq 'Taken')
{
	$takenselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {
	$takenselect = qq! !;
}
my $takenselect;
if($user_profile[18] eq '')
{
	$takenselect = qq! selected="selected"!;
} else {	
	$takenselect = qq! !;
}
and this

Code
<input type="radio" name="customfield4" value="Single" $singleselect /> 

$vars_wordlets_mods{single_option} 

<input type="radio" name="customfield4" value="Dating" $datingselect /> 

$vars_wordlets_mods{dating_option} 

<input type="radio" name="customfield4" value="Taken" $takenselect /> 

$vars_wordlets_mods{taken_option}
it works, however if u go back into ur profile, the radio buttons arnt checked. It doesnt save your setting. How do u make it do this?

Have it print $user_profile[18] somewhere on the page, just to verify that things have taken hold.

Well, that explains that. You'll need to choose one of the other custom fields for this then...

No, Im using customfield4, for the dating thing. I used customfield3 for the male/female.

So it should work fine right?

havoq, your using custom field 3 here, and there, which screwed up your ouput.

I think theres gotta be more though?
First, here, you replaces the customfield 3 input with the custom field 4 code.

Custom field 4 is 19, my mod used custom field 3, 18

Ok it works perfect now! But how would I make it so that NONE of the radio's are checked when you ENTER into your profile. Im making it an optional field. So basically now, the choice TAKEN is default selected, which means the member HAS TO CHOOSE a selection.

I want it so that NONE of the radio's are checked when you enter into your profile

nevermind, figured it out

I had to add this

Code
} elsif($user_profile[19] eq 'Taken')  {	

	$singleselect = '';
	$datingselect = '';
	$takenselect = qq( checked="checked");
} else {

	$singleselect = '';
	$datingselect = '';
	$takenselect = '';
}
