Displaying author username in submitted ad (ZipsAds classifieds ads)
I am a total beginner with Drupal and php, and wanted to do something which seems basic but I can't figure out how, so I need help please!
Have a look here:
http://www.ibguides.com/drupal/drupal-5.19/?q=zipsads/select_location
(log in username: test
password: password
Select the first location [Aberdeen AB10] and then [community - activities])
there are two test ads there, click any.
What I want to do is to replace the default "Contact:" information which displays the email address of the person who is viewing the ad rather than that of the person who posted the ad.
Additionally I would want to replace the email address by the authors username (which would be a link to their profile) so that people can use the built in private message service rather than needing to display their email address.
Below is the code I was messing around with to try and get what I wanted (in it's original form):
I tried replacing "mail" to uid but that (obviously) just showed the user's number (the user busy viewing the page) in:
$content .= '<br><div><b>Contact:</b> '. l($user->mail, 'mailto:'. $user->mail) .'</div>';
function theme_zipsads_ad($nid) {
global $user;
$sql = sprintf("SELECT * FROM {node_revisions} WHERE `nid` = %d", $nid);
$result = db_query($sql);
$data = db_fetch_object($result);
$zsql = sprintf("SELECT * FROM {zipsads_ad} WHERE `nid` = %d", $nid);
$zresult = db_query($zsql);
$zdata = db_fetch_object($zresult);
$content = '';
$content .= '<br><div><b>City:</b> '. $zdata->city .' <b>State:</b> '. $zdata->state .' <b>Country:</b> '. $zdata->country .' <b>Zipcode:</b> '. $zdata->zipcode .'</div>';
$content .= '<br><div><b>Heading:</b> '. $zdata->heading .' <b>Subheading:</b> '. $zdata->subheading .'</div>';
$content .= '<br><div><b>Contact:</b> '. l($user->mail, 'mailto:'. $user->mail) .'</div>';
$content .= '<br><div><b>Title:</b> '. $data->title .'</div>';
$content .= '<br><div><b>Body:</b> '. $data->body .'</div>';
$content .= '<br><div>';
$sql = sprintf("SELECT * FROM {files} WHERE `nid` = %d", $nid);
$result = db_query($sql);
while ($data = db_fetch_object($result)) {
$content .= theme('image', $data->filepath, '', 'title', array(), TRUE);
}
$content .= '</div>';
return $content;
}So does anyone know what needs to be in the place of
"$content .= '<br><div><b>Contact:</b> '. l($user->mail, 'mailto:'. $user->mail) .'</div>';"
in order for it to display the authors username (and have that be a link to their profile)?
