ok, great! Everything is working!

Thanks a lot for helping me out.

Fred

is this hack still working uner 1.0.4?

This seems to be the only place that has something similar to what I'm trying to do


I wrote this code based on the code in this thread:

view.php

Code:

if ($fbConfig['fb_profile'] =="cb" && $fbConfig['cb_profile'] && $fmessage->userid > 0) {     unset($cbinfo);     $database->setQuery("SELECT * FROM #__comprofiler where user_id='$fmessage->userid'"«»);     $database->loadObject($cbinfo); if ($cbinfo->fbConfig['cb_wiiconsolenumber_field'] != '') {         $userinfo->wiiconsolenumber = $cbinfo->fbConfig['cb_wiiconsolenumber_field'];     } }

admin.fireboard.html.php:

Code:

[] [][] [] [] [] [] [][] [] [] []

and language:

Code:

DEFINE('_CB_MYPROFILE_WII_CONSOLE_NUMBER', 'Wii Console Number'); DEFINE('_CB_MYPROFILE_WII_CONSOLE_NUMBER_DESC', 'This is where users enter their Wii Console Number (Friend Code)');

Now my real question is, I want to get the number that is entered by users in their profile into the user info box in the left pane (where the avatar is)

whats the easiest way to go about doing this?

I know its down near the additional info section in the view.php

anybody?

Same code for 1.0.4 version?

This hack should be integrated to Fireboard core.... or be realeased as plugin once it works with CB.


If I upgrade fireboard tomorrow, do i have to do the work again?

tks!

Yes it does work in 1.04 but obviously you have to use the view.php file from template you are using.

Is there any way to make this work in PHP5?

I dont see any reason why this wouldnt work with php 5

rockandchelle,

This code is not PHP5 compatible:

Code:

if ($cbinfo->$fbConfig['cb_gender_field'] != '') {

It returns an error:

Code:

Fatal error: Cannot access empty property in /home/qsobr3/public_html/components/com_fireboard/template/default/view.php on line 531

It's the $cbinfo->$fbConfig construct that seems to be syntactically incorrect in PHP5. I suspect that it was a syntax that was slated for deprecation in an older version of php, but was still supported in PHP4. Well, the PHP folks evidently rolled it off the backend, because when I switched my server to use PHP5 to handle everything, it broke.

There in view.php there are many calls to the $fbConfig from line 531 to 578 that need to be fixed. PHP4 supports the non '$'-preceded calls constructed like this: $cbinfo->fbConfig[...

Thanks and great mod by the way.

I get the error as well using PHP5. I have no idea how to convert the original mod code over to make it PHP5 compatible though.

I am not actively working on this code anymore, but my guess would be that if you change all of the

Code:

$cbinfo->$fbConfig[...]

to

Code:

$cbinfo->fbConfig[...]

It would probably work fine then.
