Making a Profile block.

Howdy,

I need to make a profile block to basicly display some status information.

The block would look something like this:

$NickName 's Profile Status

I'm not asking anyone to do this for me, I need to learn how to do this on my own.

But... So far I have not been able to figure out how the default blocks are made.

Can anyone help me get started?

Thanks.

You need to learn PHP for that.

I know just enough php to be dangerous.

I have managed to make a PHP block on the Profile page, and test code is working.

Now I belive it is a matter of getting code to display the things I need.

I have found a number of functions that do some of the things I want, but am not sure how to pass the values to them from my PHP block.

If I could find the code that makes the current blocks work I think I would make a lot of progress.

For example, there is a 'General Info' and 'Misc Info' block.

If I could find the code that is used to display that information I could hack it into my block...

Do you have link to the name of the mod that can do this?

No,
That is not what I am looking for. :(

How about this... What code is required to display the member name?

This should be fairly easy, something like:

~

<?php echo $MemberName; ?>
