Description

This php snippet displays single-line textfields. If the user has not specified anything, it displays nothing

Dependencies: profile.module

Usage

  • Using a text editor like NOTEPAD.EXE or an equivalent, copy and paste the code into your user_profile.tpl.php file
  • Change the custom profile field name from profile_city used in the example below. (Tip: go to administer -->> settings -->> profile and in the second column it will give you the field name.)
  • Tested and works with Drupal 4.5 and 4.6
  • Change the div class names or the prefix text to suit.
<?php if($account->profile_city): ?>
<div class="fields">City: <?php print check_plain($account->profile_city) ?></div>
<?php endif ?>

Shouldn't it be:

<?php if($user->profile_city): ?>
<div class="fields">City: <?php print check_plain($user->profile_city) ?></div>
<?php endif ?>

Or is the data sanitization performed elsewhere?

Hello Ariadoss,

In order to show custom fields added throgh Profile module, you have to replace $user variable with $account variable.

For example

<?php if($account->profile_city): ?>
<div class="fields">City: <?php print check_plain($account->profile_city) ?></div>
<?php endif ?>

changes to

<?php if($account->profile_city): ?>
<div class="fields">City: <?php print check_plain($account->profile_city) ?></div>
<?php endif ?>

Hmm not working for my 5.X Site. I was trying to get a print_r of all the available fields and then hand pick what I wanted. How can we get a dump of all elements that can be displayed (Drupal 5)?

I can't extract the field from the content profile module, which I use instead the core one.
