i did try that

it doesnt work, it keeps on telling gender is required

also when i use it that way people arent able to set gender on registration

hoping for a solutions

grtz Carlo

Tested and worked (for me)

errrrhm

can you exactly say what needs to be changed, so new members can register and choose and when registered they cant change

my code part now

edited removed to avoid confusion
like you see only other way i did it i set the positions different

[carloclaessen]

i found it out

(sorry mosymuis did, but with the switches i was pretty good on the way)

For users who want it also

open profile_add_body.tpl

find the gender part

Code: Select all

<tr>
<td><span class="explaintitle">{L_GENDER}:{GENDER_REQUIRED}</span></td>
<td>
<input type="radio" {LOCK_GENDER} name="gender" value="0" {GENDER_NO_SPECIFY_CHECKED}/>
<span class="gen">{L_GENDER_NOT_SPECIFY}</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input type="radio" name="gender" value="1" {GENDER_MALE_CHECKED}/>
<span class="gen">{L_GENDER_MALE}</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input type="radio" name="gender" value="2" {GENDER_FEMALE_CHECKED}/>
<span class="gen">{L_GENDER_FEMALE}</span></td>
</tr>

replace with

Code: Select all

<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_out -->
<tr>
<td><span class="explaintitle">{L_GENDER}:{GENDER_REQUIRED}</span></td>
<td>
<input type="radio" {LOCK_GENDER} name="gender" value="0" {GENDER_NO_SPECIFY_CHECKED}/>
<span class="gen">{L_GENDER_NOT_SPECIFY}</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input type="radio" name="gender" value="1" {GENDER_MALE_CHECKED}/>
<span class="gen">{L_GENDER_MALE}</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input type="radio" name="gender" value="2" {GENDER_FEMALE_CHECKED}/>
<span class="gen">{L_GENDER_FEMALE}</span></td>
</tr>
<!-- END switch_user_logged_out -->
<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in -->
<tr>
<td><span class="explaintitle">{L_GENDER}:{GENDER_REQUIRED}</span></td>
<td>
<input type="hidden" name="gender" value="{GENDER}" />
<span class="gen">{L_GENDER_NOT_CHANGE}</span>
</td>
</tr>
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in -->

like you notced i have added an extra line into it

open usercp_register.php

find

Code: Select all

      'L_GENDER_NOT_SPECIFY' =>$lang['No_gender_specify'],

after add

Code: Select all

      'L_GENDER_NOT_CHANGE' =>$lang['No_gender_change'],

at last

open lang_main.php

find

Code: Select all

$lang['Gender_require'] = 'Your Gender is required on this site.';

after add

Code: Select all

$lang['No_gender_change'] = 'Changing Your Gender isnt Allowed';

in my opnion i think i helped a lot off people with this!

[kooky]

this is one of the best solution
{LOCK_GENDER} isn't made to lock all values
i have the same issue with a similar "lock_field" in Moderator CP MOD when we try to edit a profile

[carloclaessen]

the solution i typed above is now tested and running on 6 sites, its running ok and all gender field required messages are gone like snow for sun, still thx for the time, this part was easy compared to the next target, making it so the birthday isnt editable anymore

[carloclaessen]

kooky or -==et==- you may convert it to EM compatble, i dont support EM just mention my name

EM (non-)compliant
tested on phpBB 2.0.8 + Gender Mod

Simpler yet, adding kooky's not-all-the-way-thought-through idea to carlos' working solution :

Code: Select all

<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_out -->
<!-- Start add - Gender MOD -->
<tr>
      <td class="row1"><span class="gen">{L_GENDER}:{GENDER_REQUIRED}</span></td>
      <td class="row2">
      <input type="radio" name="gender" value="1" {GENDER_MALE_CHECKED}/>
      <span class="gen">{L_GENDER_MALE}</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;
      <input type="radio" name="gender" value="2" {GENDER_FEMALE_CHECKED}/>
      <span class="gen">{L_GENDER_FEMALE}</span></td>
</tr>
<!-- End add - Gender MOD -->
<!-- END switch_user_logged_out -->

<!-- BEGIN switch_user_logged_in -->
<!-- Start add - Gender MOD -->
<tr>
      <td class="row1"><span class="gen">{L_GENDER}:{GENDER_REQUIRED}</span></td>
      <td class="row2">
      <input type="hidden" name="gender" value="{GENDER}">
      <input type="radio" {LOCK_GENDER} name="gender" value="1" {GENDER_MALE_CHECKED}/>
      <span class="gen">{L_GENDER_MALE}</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;
      <input type="radio" {LOCK_GENDER} name="gender" value="2" {GENDER_FEMALE_CHECKED}/>
      <span class="gen">{L_GENDER_FEMALE}</span></td>
</tr>
<!-- End add - Gender MOD -->
<!-- END switch_user_logged_in -->


Instead of "Changing your gender isn't allowed", it displays the radio buttons locked on the user's gender.

Note: I removed the "unspecified" portion since there's no need for it once you've made gender required.
