Custom profile field

[kerry2008]

Hi, I'm quite new to being admin on a forum. I apologise if this is posted in wrong section. I am trying to add a custom profile field to display blinkies, mainly so i can use blinkies as competition prizes such as poster of the month etc. I had tried to do the profile field but when I copy and pste the code for the blinkies it is just text and no blinkie. Can anyone help me with this please. Thank you in advance for any replies.
I am using phpbb3

This is because custom profile fields do not parse BBCode, smilies, or links automatically. You'll need to add a MOD like Parse BBCode in Custom Profile Fields. Please direct all similar questions to the main board, http://www.phpbb.com/community/, as this one is for development rather than support.

Are you sure about that? I remember making a mod that would display an image in the template that would turn into a blue image if the user has specified an URL in a specific CPF. It kept screwing up because it parsed the URL every time, even though it was a CPF.

I had to mod the functions_profile_fields.php just to get it to work:

Code: Select all

            $value = make_clickable($value);
            $value = censor_text($value);
            $value = bbcode_nl2br($value);
            return $value;

Changed to:

Code: Select all

            $value = censor_text($value);

            if ($field_ident == ('mycpf1' || 'mycpf2'))
            {
               // Do nothing
            }
            else
            {
               $value = make_clickable($value);
               $value = bbcode_nl2br($value);
            }
            return $value;
