MyBB Community Forums

Hey everyone.

I am currently trying to extend the functionality of my site, GreaterGamer. To do so, I want to extend some of the profile information with some more advanced custom fields.

Firstly, I would like to add Xfire, PSN ID, Xbox Live Gamertag, and Steam ID support to my site.

For Xfire, I would like it to display their Xfire username and link to their profile (http://www.xfire.com/profile/{xfire_username}).

For PSN ID, I would like it to display their PSN ID and link to their trophy page (http://profiles.us.playstation.com/plays...es/{psnid})

For Xbox Live Gamertag, I want it to link to the user's Xbox Live profile (http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profi...{gamertag}).

For the Steam ID, I want it to link to their Steam profile (http://www.steamcommunity.com/id/{steamid}).

I don't think it is possible to use MyBB's built-in Custom Profile Field editor to add these, as the value of these fields must fill in the values contained within the brackets. I have looked into the editing the PHP code, but don't know how to go about adding this to both the EDIT page for the profile and the DISPLAY page for the profile.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am not that good with MyBB coding but I think it's the best if you make a little plugin that will extend some options of the Custom Profile Field Editor. Like as you said have the option of having part of the url already in the field so like:

Empty field 1 Value will be: "http://www.xfire.com/profile/" so that all the user has to do is add their name in the empty field which will finish the link.

Again as I said I am new to plugins and stuff like that I am more good at the field of design and editing MyBB templates to my need .
