Installed. And it shows the genders fine within the MEMBERLIST, but within the posts it just shows everyone as the gender you have seleted in your profile.

Any Ideas on Why This Happened?

[bombout]

worked fine in userinfo too.

just within the threads it seems to be a little weird.

Had a quick read through and fixed it...

The part which says:

3. showthread.php
************************************************

    // Gender Hack
    if ($bbuserinfo[gender]==-1) {
      eval("\$gender = \"".gettemplate("postbit_gender_unknown")."\";");
    } 
    else if ($bbuserinfo[gender]==1) {
      eval("\$gender = \"".gettemplate("postbit_gender_male")."\";");
    }
    else if ($bbuserinfo[gender]==2) {
      eval("\$gender = \"".gettemplate("postbit_gender_female")."\";");
    }
    // Gender Hack End

Should be changed to:

3. showthread.php
************************************************

    // Gender Hack
    if ($userinfo[gender]==-1) {
      eval("\$gender = \"".gettemplate("postbit_gender_unknown")."\";");
    } 
    else if ($userinfo[gender]==1) {
      eval("\$gender = \"".gettemplate("postbit_gender_male")."\";");
    }
    else if ($userinfo[gender]==2) {
      eval("\$gender = \"".gettemplate("postbit_gender_female")."\";");
    }
    // Gender Hack End

Hope this helps people.

You're right. The problem was in readme.txt which was used from another hack I made and I accidentaly left those two bb before userinfo.

Thanks for the head up and I apologize for the bug.

ZIP updated. Bug fixed. Case closed.

i know this might sound stupid...but im a begginer. Where are the templates found? I got down to the bit that said "new template" and i dont know where that is...help?

[PeF]

Simply add new templates with names and contents as written in the documentation.

[ff92k]

thats it
thanks you, done it!

[mrlister]

just before i try it does it work in beta 5.

[Kamui]

Yes, it works in every 2.0 beta. I couldn't find anything that needed to be modified for the new code, and it's installed on my forums.

Hi,

i just installed it in RC1! Everything works fine. Then i tried to change it from user options to user profile. But it doesn't work. Can somebody tell what to do if I want to have it the user profile?

Thanks

[rickjansen105]

uhm, can you add one more option to it:?:?:

Both

that would be funny and cool...
would love that for my forums...
does it work with
EVERY beta of vbb 2.0?
(1-5 and RC1+RC2)

thank you in advance...

I'll try to make the options selectable using the admin control panel (so you'll be able to add as many options as you want to) as soon as the final version of vB is released.
