Solved Collection of personalized profile data [Solved]

Post by Darren1 March 27th 2009, 7:35 am

Is it possible to collect data from the personalized profile option?

IE: When you set up a "who introduced you to this forum" type of thing, and u make it obligatory, can you collect the data, without going to the admin panel, or the users profile?

Hmmm, interesting question. I was thinking how to do it.

Could a form be used, so that it mails the data? But then it would be as a single mail.

I was also thinking that, because initial finding's state that you cannot collect your data automatically, (Can do it manually, but don't have the time) but I want to make it into the forum's registration process, and I don't think that a HTML code is able to fit in there Confused

I know there isnt a spot to insert a HTML code Evil or Very Mad

So, iv concluded that you cannot add a HTML code in ur personal profile fields, and you cannot add HTML Sad

Does anyone have an idea on how to add a "who brought me to this forum" type of thing, to the registration process?

I meant, you wanted the list together in either one file or in a single mail to be sent to you.

I think, then the userform tutorial might be of help which was created by Luky.

Also, i will try this sometime later if you are not able to work it out.

I am not sure, but it had worked earlier. Since it was tested before it was added for the general users.
