v1.2 has been released which fixes this problem. You only have to replace ExtendedProfiles.pl. Download link can be found in the first post of this thread.

@bordeglobal: You can apply the code change yourself by following these instructions:

Open ExtendedProfiles.pl and look for:

		# if setting didn't get submitted, load old value 

then add the following before:

		# load old settings which where invisible/restricted
		if ($field{'editable_by_user'} == 0 && $usergroup ne "Administrator") {
			$FORM{'ext_'.$id} = $oldprofile[$id];
		} 

I've been looking forward to installing this, many thanks Michael. I do have a small problem though. I have the Yams compatible version, failing at Step 9 because of Notify Plus.

Step 9

My Profile.pl relevant portion:

&ShowBoards;

$yymain .= qq~
    </table><BR>
    </td>
 ~;
}

$yymain .= qq~
<!--- /Added for Notify Plus 2.2 --->

  </tr><tr>
    <td class="catbg" bgcolor="$color{'catbg'}" height="25"><font size=2><b>$txt{'597'}</b></font></td>
  </tr><tr>
    <td class="windowbg" bgcolor="$color{'windowbg'}">
    <table border=0 width="100%" cellpadding="3">
	 

Would this be correct manually?

&ShowBoards;
~;

require "$sourcedir/ExtendedProfiles.pl";

$yymain .= ext_editprofile($INFO{'username'},"required") . qq~

    </table><BR>
    </td>
 ~;

$yymain .= qq~

    <table border=0 width="100%" cellpadding="3">

$yymain .= ext_editprofile($INFO{'username'},"additional") . qq~
 

Thank you in advance for any advice with this.

Where'd my reply go?  ???

I'll try again.

Thank you Michael, but there was a problem. After I installed the mod, I went to edit my profile and in the cell labelled Additional Information, there was an untrapped error. My site is today in the middle of a server change so I can't go copy the exact error, but to the best of my knowledge, it was something like:

undefined subroutine ext_editproflie in X line of Profile.pl

X (179?) line was the last line of your code,

$yymain .= ext_editprofile($INFO{'username'},"additional") . qq~  

Any thoughts?

Oh sorry, :blush: and thanks, I'll try it when my server is available again.

I really like what you've done here.  Most mods are difficult to install this was extremely easy..I assume that download counter must be wrong

I posted the solution in your thread, Adrian

Some code parts changed in SP1.3 which where modified by this mod. I suggest you to uninstall the mod, then update and reinstall the SP1.3 version of this mod afterwards. You won't loose any memberdata by uninstalling the mod file.

the only difference between the SP1.1 and SP1.3 version is that the code from YaBB.pl moved to Sublist.pl. Also, some ajustments to the search strings of Memberlist.pl were required but if that part works fine for you, there is no need to update the mod.
