I'm trying to do something very basic for now...but can't seem to accomplish this goal. In essence, I have a page that comes before the actual CB registration form that will POST data in a hidden form field...based on the data from that form field, I need to prevent or allow a section of the registration form to draw fields or not draw fields based on said value. That section is simply a tab with CB defined fields that need to be filled in at registration and likely be displayed on the profile. Just like any other tab, except it's a self-coded tab.
it's easier to explain in code...
class getartistsTab extends cbTabHandler {
/**
* Construnctor
*/
function getartistsTab() {
$this->cbPluginHandler();
}
**So here we are telling the tabs fields to show up on the registration form... function getDisplayRegistration(&$tab,$user,$ui) {
** Now, here I am telling it to redeclare the hidden form fields variable from the PREVIOUS PAGE'S data into a variable called $level** $level=$_REQUEST["usage"];
** Now, here is where we are having the problem. I already did a print_r($level) to make sure I was getting the value I need to set the condition to draw fields or not, so let's say that variable is '2'**
if ($level==2){
$tab->fields=false;
}
} // end of getDisplayRegistration function
AS you can see I wrote at the end that if that variable level is equal to 2 then don't draw the fields from that plugin on the registration page, yet they still show up. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm well aware of Mikko's little plugin...this does not answer the question.
I'm fine with PHP, it's the CB API i'm having problems with...
I don't need to buy something when all I need is one IF else statement...and a little push in the right direction to see how to prevent CB from drawing fields based on it's own API. I've been through the documentation and still can't seem to...never mind..
I'm going to pull the fields variable out of the &tab and put into a 'return' and then declare it null, see what that does.
