New profile fields

Post by Wai »

Adding new profile fields to phpBB3 is a very simple process. What fields would you like me to add? One I can think of is the number of hermit crabs you have.

I'd like to see a location field. When giving someone advise it often helps to know where they live. The advise for someone in Florida could be very different from the advise to someone in Ontario.

I like both ideas. It does show on the posting where we are from if it is put in there.

I realize this is an older thread, but I have leafed through this conference room forum and haven't come across a thread regarding my question.
Is there an area here within HCP in my profile area, (or somewhere) where a member can mark to notify them of new posts and replies by the e-mail they have listed here?
I have seen the option at the bottom of the threads to subscribe to that thread, but any other options?

Little note too, not that 1 day makes or breaks when a person started crabbing, but I did mark mine for June 17, 2000. But under my info on the postings I am doing it is showing the date as June '16'.
