I am running phpBB 2.04 (PHP/MySQL-based) and would like to customize
the memberlist page (memberlist.php, which calls a number of
include/template files). A sample memberlist page -- not mine -- is at
http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/memberlist.php
I've successfully edited memberlist_body.tpl to remove a couple of
columns (member number and PM, notably) but now I'm trying to have the
memberlist show the user's occupation field.
I've added {L_OCCUPATION} in the cell header and
{memberrow.OCCUPATION} in a cell in the same row as {memberrow.FROM}
and {memberrow.USERNAME} -- but nothing comes out.
No error, just blank in both cases.
Help! |

jhabley-ga,
Would http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=99605 - PCP - be
suitable? It offers a customizable memberlist for phpBB. If this
doesn't answer your question, let me know and i'll dig a little
further...

Hi arimathea,
I saw that one and even downloaded and looked at it, but it's not
quite the same thing. It's a control panel for users to be able to
control which fields appear on their profile.
I'm just trying to add that one Occupation field to the memberlist.php
output so that when people look at the memberlist, they can see
people's occupations as well.

Would this be of any help?
http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=12426
If you scrool about half of the way down the user "Rod" has a post
timestamped as: Sat Apr 13, 2002 4:25 am. If you use your browser to
find the words memberlist.php on the page, it should be the correct
post. Otherwise just go about half of the way down and you should see
it. It describes how to add an extra field to the memberlist. Let me
know if this solutions works and I will post it as an answer.
Thanks!

I applogize for the spelling error, it should be "scroll" in the first line.

Hmmm... nice find. Let me try it and if it works, I will let you know
so you can answer it formally. Thanks for your trust here -- another
reason why I love using you folks.
One sec while I check...

Dang, nope. I did everything there, changed from member_no to user_occ
(the actual field name in the database), but again nothing. :(

Hello jhabley,
I think you still need to add this row to the sql select statement in
the 'memberlist.php':
Example - where it says this :
$sql = "SELECT username, user_id .... user_avatar_type,
user_allowavatar
You would add the select for the user_occ like this :
$sql = "SELECT username, user_id .... user_avatar_type,
user_allowavatar, user_occ
Then you will have to make the changes you made before, and assign a
language variable for this in 'memberlist.php' as well :
'L_OCCUPATION' => $lang['Members Occupation']
Now once you print it out, it should be selected and shown. Let me
know if this helps ;-)

I had the SQL field reference in there. And adding...
'L_OCCUPATION' => $lang['Members Occupation']
...to memberlist.php only affects the table header -- the actual
columns still come out blank. (And yes, there's data in that field...
<grin> )

Just to clarify, I've added {L_OCCUPATION} in the template -- this is
what...
'L_OCCUPATION' => $lang['Members Occupation']
...seems to be controlled by. And I've added {memberrow.OCCUPATION} in
the row of other fields, and it spits out blank in that case -- all
the other fields come out fine.

Can you provide the exact SQL statement?

Clarification of Question by

Yup...
$sql = "SELECT username, user_id, user_viewemail, user_posts,
user_regdate, user_from, user_website, user_email, user_icq, user_aim,
user_yim, user_msnm, user_avatar, user_avatar_type, user_allowavatar,
user_occ
FROM " . USERS_TABLE . "
WHERE user_id <> " . ANONYMOUS . "
ORDER BY $order_by";

jhabley-ga,
Thanks for being patient with us through this process.
I'm looking at memberlist.php right now. I notice that there are the
following places in the file where the L_OCCUPATION probably needs to
be:
around line 109
around line 241
Also check your SQL on line 145.
One last thing: $occupation = $row['user_occ']; probably needs to be
somewhere around 231.
I'm giving relative line numbers because i'm using 2.0.5.
Let's see how this works for you; let me know.
Best,
arimathea-ga

Hey jhabley,
If you are still get nowhere with the suggestions above, I would be
happy to make the changes required and provide you with new php files
and any SQL statements that are required.
The only problem will be if you need to upgrade phpBB later.
Let me know how you get on.

Hi sycophant, sorry about taking so long to get back to you. That
would be great. How do I get the PHP scripts to you?
|
Request for Question Clarification by

Um, can you tar up the scripts as you have them at the moment perhaps,
and post a URL when I can download the archive? Remove passwords or
anything sensitive.
I will obtain the original version and compare it to your version,
figure out what needs to change and send you a full tar with the
changes.
As I understand it (I haven't used phpBB for a while), occupation is
not a field offered in the regular version, so you are trying to add
it, and also remove other fields you are not interested in?
When I have it installed and working, I will post a URL for you to
check my work at before I send everything back.
Regards,
Sycophant-ga

k thanks. They're at http://futurefile.com/transfer2984/
I think I got the main ones. Let me know when you get these and I'll
delete the directory, and if you need me to add any other files
(includes I may have missed, etc.)

P.S. If you can figure out why the pulldown menus for sorting don't do
anything, I'd love to know.

Hi jhabley,
I have made the modifications I think you wanted. I had problems
downloading the php files you posted, so I just made the changes from
scratch.
You can view my memberlist at:
http://dylan.wibble.net/programming/ga-test/220715/phpBB2/memberlist.php
The changes I have made are:
- Removed Member Number column.
- Removed IM column.
- Added Occupation column.
- Added $lang["Sort_Occupation"] to lang_main.php (English only).
- Modified sort dropdown to allow sorting by Occupation.
- Altered SQL in memberlist.php to provide required information.
I think that's it.
Have a look at the link, and let me know if I have missed anything.
The altered files are:
templates/subSilver/memberlist_body.tpl
languages/lang_english/lang_main.php
memberlist.php
If these changes do everything you want, let me know and I will zip
them up and post the files for you to download.
Otherwise, let me know what I have missed, and I will post again when
I have that done.
Regards,
Sycophant-ga

Looks like it would work, but I wouldn't be able to just overwrite my
existing files with your versions, as my files have had mods applied
to them. I'm looking for someone who can code it into the existing
files which you now have.

Hi jhabley,
No problem, at least I am clear on what you need.
However, I was unable to get the files from that download, can you put
them back, as .txt files?

Disregard that, I do in fact have the files I need from you. I am

I will get to work on them ASAP.
