[MOD] Dropdown options for custom database fields

[cipriansamoila]

hi,

i could see the dropdown you integrate for user or image fields.

How would I adapt your instructions to add a dropdown to the comment form?
I followed your instructions so far but won't work, of course they are for another files.

Please help me with this.

4images does not support custom fields for comments

[cipriansamoila]

Is there any alternative I can get a Yes or No in the dabase after posting the comment?

In the comment form I have a question: Do you like this image? and they would answer yes or no. And then I need to count how many yes and how many nos i got for each image.
What do you recommend I should use?

THank you in advance.

4images does not support custom fields for comments

[iban]

$additional_user_fields['%column_name%'] = array("%field_description%", "%admin_field_type%", %is_required%, %dropdown_array% [, %is_multidimention%, %is_number%, %start_number%, %is_auto%]);

I set the %is_required parameter to "1" and when I am registering a new user, that field appears as optional. Is that a bug or have I gor a mistake in my mod code?

Many thanks

Hello Vano,

I try again asking about an alternative to add a new field in comment page.
A dropdown YES or NO.

I want the YES or NO to be add in the database, so I can make a statistics of how many liked the photo or not.
The rating system is far too complicated.
Maybe that would be an alternative, but it needs heavy recoding.

What do you say about that?

Thank you in advance.

Hi all,

I wish to insert one page for advanced search of events added to the table 4images_addevents. I have to insert two drop down boxes one for including the city and the other for including type in the search. How can we do this.

Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Do you must create a drop down column in your database before using this mod right?  What kind of column should you create in your database?

[soyola]

else {
        $value = (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key])) ? htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(trim($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key]))) : ""; 

Only shows up once but there is another similar code shows up first and that was

else {
        $value = (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key])) ? htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(trim($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key]))) : $image_row[$key];
      }

There is also

else {
        $value = (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key])) ? htmlspecialchars(trim($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key])) : $user_info[$key];
      }

Should I just replace the top two codes with

elseif ($val[1] == "dropdown") {
        $value = (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key])) ? $HTTP_POST_VARS[$key] : $image_row[$key];
         $additional_field_array[$key.'_dropdown'] = get_db_fields_dropdown($key, $val, $value);
      }
      else {
        $value = (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key])) ? htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(trim($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key]))) : ((isset($image_row[$key])) ? $image_row[$key] : "");
      }

I made my drop down fields required but it appears users can register it without choosing any value. Here is what my db_definitions field looks like

$additional_user_fields['user_gender'] = array($lang['user_gender'], "dropdown", 1, array("---", "Male", "Female"));

It's probably because its first value is "---" and it thinks it already has a value there but in reality I want users choose either M or F.  Do you know any solutions to this problem?

Thank you very much for your help

[V@no]

I'd suggest you use multidimention array instead. This way it would store number ( 0 - XX ) in the database, which is better in every way you look at it.

$additional_user_fields['user_gender'] = array($lang['user_gender'], "dropdown", 1, array("---", "Male", "Female"), 1);

Bitte um kurze Hilfestellung.

Ich habe nun den Mod Installiert damit user das Geschlecht + Land eingeben können.

Nun aber haben ca. 3000 User von mir keine Eingabe bisher gemacht weil ich das erst jetzt reingegeben habe.
Nun steht im Profil überall "männlich" als Standard

und beim Land steht "your default country".

Ich würde nun gerne als Standart "bisex" haben..weil ich das als "keine Angabe" genommen habe..weils einfach heißen soll eines von beiden
und ich würde gerne statt "your defailt country" einen anderen text nehmen wie zb. keine Angabe auch.
Finde diesen text aber nirgenst zum ändern.

Bitte um Hilfe!
Danke

seems this mod needs an update so it becomes compatibel with 1.7.2

Code: [Select]

      else {
        $value = (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key])) ? htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(trim($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key]))) : "";
      }Can't be found anymore

i would like to add custom drop-downs, but not for the user registration, but for the images and image-uploads. In what files will i have to be?
