    Member locations

    Is there a way to display member locations under their usernames? I know I am continually clicking on people's names to view their profile just to see where they're located. A lot of people don't fill in this information, which is cool, but personally I'd like to see those who do fill it in have it displayed with their posts so we can quick-reference when people inevitably mention temp and conditions outside - since it is so relevant to outdoor cooking.

    Just a thought.

    Not sure on that, but raywjohnson would know. It would have to be contingent on if the member filled that info in, so it doesn't populate it from their 'hidden' address on file if they didn't want it to.

      I suppose we could add it to the signature file -- that way it is obvious that someone wants their location to be public and it is available in the post...

        Right, I figure if they have it in their public profile, then they wouldn't mind it being under their name. An assumption, I suppose, but I would think it's a pretty safe one? Lots of folks don't have a location listed on their profile when you click on their username.

        It's not a big deal, I just don't know people all that well, and am continually clicking on usernames to see the location. Maybe I'm weird. lol. Ok, well, I KNOW I'm weird, but maybe this is just one more way I'm weird.

        The "Location" field is a non required custom profile field. That means if a member never fills in the info, nothing is displayed. I can add a template and hook (plugin) to cause the Location to display (if not blank) under the "Posts: ##" info,

          You don't live there, you visit there and drink whiskey and cook 680lbs of meat in a week and then bolt.

          Thanks for doing that, raywjohnson! It's a useful feature that I didn't even realize was needed.

            Nice touch! That little addition will spark a whole new level of communication between members. One application of the term "well done" that is acceptable here.

              I think it's a great thing to have here. You might just find someone lives near you. Nice way to make friends, share cooks ect...
