Hi

I am enjoying exploring the XOOPS universe and am about to start adapting the system to suit my needs. However I wanted to pose a question before I start to see if there is a standard way to do this:

I would like to add more columns in the members table for my members to fill in about themselves. I want also to remove some that are not suitable for my needs. Should I just add the columns in MySQL and update the relevant modules to display them? OR is there another way to do this so if I upgrade the system at some future time my work will not be undone?

Best wishes,

Robert aka KingPig

I've seen a few posts recently on this subject - hacking the info to remove ICQ details and the like, and replacing them with other information....

This is planned for the 2.2 release of Xoops. (Timeframe unknown.)

Thanks for all the messages! Being a newB I thought that no-one was listening - how wrong I was.

I have figured most of it out now, basically what was suggested in the forum linked to above.

https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=20250&forum=27&post_id=88208#forumpost88208

I have been playing with NoAh, and wonder whether it is possible to quickly change details using that?

NoAh is very interesting.

Cheers
