Ok, great !

But it will be cool to have the option to put an image or icon instead of text.
for exemple : what is your favorite drink ? beer, coca... it will display an icon,
like that :

You can using HTML styling.

That's what the Value Display HTML field is all about, as shown in the video with the QR code example. It allows you to take the value of a custom field and display it however you like.

Finally can convert my last sports forum now that this is available!

Does it works with a drop down selection for exemple ? If the member select beer it display beer image, if the member select coca cola it display coca image etc... ?

sorry, I did not understand the audio at one part of the video:
Are you saying that profile-fields which are put into "Preferences" are "hidden from public" ?

It would be great to also have "hidden" profile-fields (to be filled-in by the user), but those fields only being visible to the Administrator; hidden fields not visible by other members.

Excellent. This should allow us to apply moderator 'badges' instead of the usergroup CSS styling we currently use.

whats the different between the value and the text? is the value the background text to whatever is selected!! the value?!

 

[DRE]

I can use this for 'Game Systems Owned'

Awesome.

 

[ragtek]

Oh, i've forgotten my famous phrases question

Is it possible to use phrases for the Name & selectext?

"Text" is what is shown to the user and "value" is the actual choice selection. In the video it is why Kier mentioned that the "text" selection ends up getting phrased so you could have different "text" per language but behind the scenes it would still be one consistent "value" that gets acted upon.

Kier,

Can you make the Home Page, Location and Occupation into custom fields like you've done with the Identities bit.

This would make it simpler for peopel that don't want them to remove them from our forums etc.

Thanks

Fast forward to around the 3:20 mark when he is doing the "footwear" multi-choice selection example. He mentions it in the voice over but it isn't shown.

Disabling unconfirmed users to enter anything into this box?

I forgot that, Basically any user information thats not needed to make xenforo run i.e. email address, DOB etc. should be as a custom field, So that we can remove or tweak to our own needs.

 

[akia]

Also is it possible to give access to the custom fields on a per user group setting?
