I would like to add or change one of the options on the profile form, for instance, instead of a place to enter icq address, I would rather it asks for city & state of residence. How and where do I do that? |

Susan, I did it manually, but you better make additional column to tblAuthor and call it, let's say "State". Then add another variable into all necessary files (register.asp, forum_posts.asp, pop_up_profile.asp as I remember) into all proper arrays. Are you good with ASP/vbscript? |

If you just wanted to replace ICQ, then you could just change 'strTxtICQNumber' in language_files/language_file_inc.asp - its about line 730 - to whatever you wanted, for example, 'State'. You could change any of the field names in the language file to whatever you want. Blair ------------- Webmaster, http://www.planegallery.net/ - The Plane Gallery Greetings From Christchurch |

The problem is that the ICQ-field is connected to an ICQ-icon in posts. So if you write anything in the ICQ-field there will be shown a non-function ICQ-icon in your posts. To change the ICQ-name in the languagefile is not recomended. |

Good point, something I didn't think of Blair ------------- Webmaster, http://www.planegallery.net/ - The Plane Gallery Greetings From Christchurch |
. If you want to do it my way, you'll have to open pop_up_profile.asp, and remove the link and the image. For the ICQ field, you will need to delete these from line 375.
