Hi,

one Problem.

When i select a country in my Profile and then i save it reload the side and then i don´t see the country. I see the field "Please selct a country".

What must i do that i can see my selected country in the Member Control Panel???

That's what I thought would happened actually. The only way I resolved this problem in the past was by implementing V@no's MOD where the additional user fields has been re-worked and expanded in the routines. Hopefully, it is still available in the new forum for you guys.

Now, the reason why the information is not being entered correctly is because there are no query that specifies a NULL statement for this MOD.

Hi
I am having exactly the same problem. In addition to thism i tried to add the county by using PHP my admin. But still i dont get anything in profile. The country filed remain blank.
I have " [MOD] Dropdown options for custom database fields " already woriking. My gender filed is working fine the only problem is with County.
So help me please.

@TheOracle Could u please tell me what mod u was talking about??

A little more info
This is what i have in my member_profile.html

Code: [Select]

<td class="row1"width="40%"><b>{lang_user_country}</b></td>
<td class="row1">{user_country}</td>

But when i see the "view source" of the page i get this

Code: [Select]

td class="row1" width="40%"><b>Country:</b></td>
<td class="row1">&nbsp;</td>
That means, {user_country} is not showing anything. Although i have this filed in my Data base and i have manually added the country as well.
So where do i start looking for the problem ?

Although i have this filed in my Data base and i have manually added the country as well.

And when you go edit a member, country is showed there as well? (edit through ACP or from members edit profile page)

From ACP, I can only see gender field. No country option there.
As a user, in my profile I can see that country field with dropdown options. (In registration page it’s also there)

I just noticed one more thing. When as I user I change my country, It remains the same in Database (It remains the one I added before, Checked through PHP my admin)

[Fastian]

Do I need to have this option in ACP ??

When I have a country XYZ for a user ABC set through phpMyAdmin, why i m not getting it when I place {user_country} n his profile.

Please help me. I want to add few other fields as well so waiting for this issue to be resolved.

1) make sure you have

Code: [Select]

$additional_user_fields['user_country'] = array($lang['user_country'], "dropdown", 0, $var, 0, 0, 0, 1);in includes/db_field_definitions.php
2) if you dont see the dropdown in ACP, then you probably made a misstake while installing the "Dropdown for custom fields" mod.

Yes I do have this part. I double checked everything and to me, if I m doing anything wrong its in member.php from
[MOD] Dropdown options for custom database fields Mainly with step 1. As stated it should be two times but i just have once. So I changed the closes one that i got.

I am attaching both files. (I tried with both) But still can’t see it in ACP. I can see the drop down in user profiled in both cases but it doesn’t work. The country field remains blank.

So if U can have a look and tell me what exactly i am missing. I dont have any doubt in any other file.

[Fastian]

Any idea what I am missing or doing wrong??

After reading the whole thread I see that I am not the only one having trouble with country field. But I guess others somehow manage to get it to work but I am still trying.

V@no could u please tell me which member.php is correct from above two files.

[Fastian]

Desperately need this working but still I can’t figure it out that what’s wrong with it. I have installed one other mod which is used to have date of birth of the member and its working fine.

Can someone help me here?? I have checked each step more than 3 times but I don’t know why it’s not working.

I need help here. Is there any other way getting this "Country filed" working??

Actually, I don't get this MOD myself ...

since user_gender and user_country field are involved.

Secondly, where's the $lang['user_sex'] from main.php file in the instructions ?

Third, since these fields shows as :

$additional_user_fields['user_country'] = array($lang['user_country'], "dropdown", 0, $var, 0, 0, 0, 1);
$additional_user_fields['user_gender'] = array($lang['user_gender'], "dropdown", 0, array("n" => "---","b" => "Bisex", "m" => "Male", "w" => "Female"), 1, 0, 0, 0);

and, since the SQL update should go for "each additional user fields", where's the :

$additional_user_fields['user_sex'] = array($lang['user_sex'], "dropdown", 0, array("n" => "---","b" => "Bisex", "m" => "Male", "w" => "Female"), 1, 0, 0, 0);

when :

UPDATE 4images_users SET user_sex = 'your default country'

I must say myself ... it is quite confusing. I could be wrong but there might be some missing instructions from the first post (or perhaps mistakes were involved).

Throught this mod i m using user_gender and user_country filed. I can see the drop down while editing the profile but thecountry just dont show up in profile. When i checked through phpMyAdmin it appears that countryfield is not getting update.

The update code statements in first post have that mistake. Instead of user_gender thay are showing user_sex. But other than that i cant say whats wrong.
Currently, user_gender is working fine. The only problem is with Country field.

Can i have any other alternative ?? In case this mod is not working perfectly or missing few things as u said

[TheOracle]

To be honnest, I'd rather not install this MOD due to these unexpected errors. Sorry.

I am also thinking the same.

I am going to drop the "Country" part of this module
I will add an additional user field and make it opitional so user can put their country if they want to.
