I'm still trying to fully wrap my mind around how to call in pieces of info that normally are displayed on OTHER pages.
For example...
Let's say I want to display the reason a user was banned, ON their profile. I've seen a variable do similar things, like something along these lines...
${mybb->something->somewhere->ban_reason?}
I would RESEMBLE that, even though it's not exactly that... Right? I'm just not sure what the exact formula is to use.
Another example... Let's say I wanted to put a users LAST visit on the postbit? There are a lot I'd like to move from one page to another so really I just wish I could understand what to look for in order to make that transition, rather than having to make a thread and ask for each and every variable. lol
If I know the variable on the original page is something like ${example_info} then what do I look at if I want to get that variable working on a page it wasn't already a part of? How do I investigate what info to put before it with arrows, or however it's done? ${what->goes->here->example_info}?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Will give reps to anyone who can help my mind finally understand how to do this so I don't have to ask for every single one. There are a lot of things I want to call from other pages.
