Training Notes Field [solved]

[Aaron]

Can anybody tell me how to add a training notes field somewhere. The field is just to add a record of training sessions and general notes etc. Any ideas are appreciated.

Add a custom field, make it private so only admins can see (if that's what you want)

[Aaron]

how do I make it private?

Have you tried looking?

[tutmeister]

Look at the code for the admin panel and you'll see and if else clause for admin and non-admin. Re-use that code.

I added a training notes row in the database, looking for the code to display it now

[Jeff]

<?php
if(PilotGroups::group_has_perm(Auth::$usergroups, ACCESS_ADMIN))
{
	echo '<li><a href="'.fileurl('/admin').'" target="_blank">Admin Center</a></li>';
}
?>

Change ("/admin") to the tpl file you want to lock to non-admin.

Change "Admin Center" to the title of the page your are linking to.

I've made the custom field, I want only admins to be able to see it but it still shows up in the edit user profile page in the pilot center, I dont want it to show up ther so what do I do, I think it's something in here I need to change: /core/common/SettingsData.class.php

[Jeff]

In the /admin/index.php/settings/customfields you will see two drop-down boxes in there when adding a custom field.

Show in User Profile?

Show During Registration?

Answer "Yes" if you want those fields shown on those pages.

Answer "No" if you do not want those fields shown on those pages.

Found this in the settingsdata, notice the section in comments, I tryed using that but it kept giving syntax error, I put a 0 on the end of the public and showinregister, so that when the numbers in there are equal to or greater than 0 I want it to show up in profile, the training notes I already put to -1 for both. Any ideas?

	public static function getField($fieldid)
{
	$fieldid = intval($fieldid);
	return DB::get_row("SELECT * FROM '.TABLE_PREFIX.'customfields WHERE fieldid='.$fieldid'");
}


  /* Edit a custom field to be used in a profile

  $data= array('fieldid'=>,
				 'title'=>,
				 'value'=>,
				 'type'=>,
                                        'public'=>,
				 'showinregistration'=>);
 */

I fixed it added the code below:

<?php
if($customfields)
{
foreach($customfields as $field)
{
	if($field->fieldname=='TRAINING_NOTES')
	{
	}
	else
	{
.....
