template editing - excellent

Just thought i'd add a bit.

Once I'd got my head around the scripting processes of php (not too hard) I've started to make background changes to vshare's templates.

templates_c/users.tpl.php

One area I needed to change was the Users display to include the First and Last names of members. this task proved reasonably easy by adding first of all between the Name & Country sections. (from line 53+):

Quote:

---

<td>FIRST
<a href='users.php?a=<?php echo $_REQUEST['a']; ?>
&status=<?php echo $_REQUEST['status']; ?>
&sort=fname+asc'>[img]<?php echo $this->_tpl_vars[[/img]
/templates/images/up.gif' border='0'></a>
<a href='users.php?a=<?php echo $_REQUEST['a']; ?>
&status=<?php echo $_REQUEST['status']; ?>
&sort=fname+desc'>[img]<?php echo $this->_tpl_vars[[/img]
/templates/images/down.gif' border='0'></a>
</td>
<td>LAST
<a href='users.php?a=<?php echo $_REQUEST['a']; ?>
&status=<?php echo $_REQUEST['status']; ?>
&sort=lname+asc'>[img]<?php echo $this->_tpl_vars[[/img]
/templates/images/up.gif' border='0'></a>
<a href='users.php?a=<?php echo $_REQUEST['a']; ?>
&status=<?php echo $_REQUEST['status']; ?>
&sort=lname+desc'>[img]<?php echo $this->_tpl_vars[[/img]
/templates/images/down.gif' border='0'></a>
</td>

Next after you've added the above script add this in from line 142

Quote:

---

<td><?php echo $this->_tpl_vars['users'][$this->_sections['aa']['index']]['fname']; ?>
</td>
<td><?php echo $this->_tpl_vars['users'][$this->_sections['aa']['index']]['lname']; ?>
</td>

Please note the line count alters when the first section is added.

Hope the info helps someone.

hmm why not just change the user.tpl in the templates directory?

Leki,

Not sure I get what you mean.

I wanted the spreadsheet style display of the membership "users" to include their first and last name. I cant see how i can make that sort of change in the templates/user.tpl

If i can... please indicate where... cant see it....

Dafydd

maybe i dont get what you mean ;)

do you mean the profile page?

can you give a link?

ha.... no not the profile page. It's the admin section, a list of members - displaying 20 on a page...which I'd like to up as well.

Dafydd

ahh...well it should be easier to edit \templates\admin\users.tpl to do the changes. I think the files in templates_c are generated from the .tpl files

Thanks...I'll check up on what you've mention.

Thank you for the support leki... appreciated.

Dafydd
