Alrighty, here’s the scoop:

I added <?php do_action('extra_profile_info_display', $user); ?> to my profile.php file, right above the second to last line, <?php profile_pages(); ?>.

In my template-functions.php file, I have the following:

function extra_profile_edit() {

//Globals

global $user_id, $bb_current_user,$bbdb;

// Get dA username, if it exists

$da_username = $bbdb->get_var("SELECT meta_value FROM $bbdb->usermeta WHERE meta_key = 'da_username' AND user_id = '$user_id'");

// Get the user's real name, if it exists

$user_realname = $bbdb->get_var("SELECT meta_value FROM $bbdb->usermeta WHERE meta_key = 'user_realname' AND user_id = '$user_id'");

// Input fields that have a default value of the set variable

echo "

<input

name="da_username"

id="da_username"

type="field"

value="$da_username" />

.deviantart.com

<input name="user_realname"

id="user_realname"

type="field"

value="$user_realname"

/>";

}

And now for the real meat of the thing:

function extra_update() {

global $user_id;

bb_update_usermeta($user_id, "da_username", $_POST['da_username']);

bb_update_usermeta($user_id, "user_realname", $_POST['user_realname']);

}

add_action('extra_profile_info', 'extra_profile_edit');

add_action('profile_edited', 'extra_update');

add_action('extra_profile_info_display', 'extra_display');

My apologies for the length of the post…

I think I’ve found a solution, by searching the forums (go figure).

I quite like this plugin… I’m going to enable it on my forums.

I should have realized… I’m adding an action, not a filter…

[edit] OK, well I’m one step closer, kind of. I need to make a new row (?) for each new profile field.

[another edit]

I’m closer: here’s the function I need; bb_update_usermeta

Hey there, I’m trying something out here… I made a plugin called template-functions.php and I’m trying out one thing here.

If I put this line:

add_filter(

'get_profile_info_keys',

'extra_profile_info'

);

function extra_profile_info () {}

my profile info is gone, except for the username field and a password field.

I can only see the password field if I view the source… It’s not visible…

Still working on it…

edit: Oh boy, I guess the function extra_profile_info exists! Still going…

another edit:

Well now check this out:

https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/327

10/13/05… “Hooks for extra fields”?

This is more like it!

Awesome, I’ll give it a go.

Funny you mention your avatar plugin… I saw yours but I wasn’t crazy about the modification of core files, so I wrote my own upload script. It uploads a JPG, GIF, or PNG file under 20kb, with a fixed resolution of 64×64 px. If any of these conditions aren’t met, it spits out an error.

If your username is UserName, then the file is named username-avatar.gif or whatever image extension is.

I have a simple detection script for the image in the file post.php. It works for now, but I’d like something a little better. If you’d like a peek at the code just let me know.

I’m working on a PM system, and a post preview “plugin”… it’s slow going though, as college gets in the way quite a considerable bit.

Thanks,

Mike
