Who uses what machine?

Post by sleepyprm » Thu Jul 30, 2009 8:27 pm

Is there a way to sort or find on this forum all the folks who use the same kind of machine?

Or a search. Since the board encourages users to select their equipment in their profile, it should be technically possible for the forum software to find and display a list of members who use a particular machine or mask. I don't think the software currently allows such a search, however.

Well ... This is phpbb, very easy to write code or to make changes as you need. I have run many BB's over my time with servers and internet, and used phpbb for many different things. The database holds all profile info for every user, including IP addresses etc, all that would have to be done is write a query to the database that searches for the machine type. Just like user_username, but user_machine.
Not hard, just a bit time consuming to work the bugs out of.
