Get user attributes in html pages using $

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

Hi,
I can see that in the forum's HTML pages there are different attibutes which are available such as {user.id} or {user.totalPosts}. I want to get one of my defined columns - GizmozId (or gizmoz_id) in the database to be avaiable in the HTML page as {user.GizmozId}. How do I do that?
Thanks
Eytan.

You'd have to customize the jForum User object. Basically, the references to user.[property] in the Templates are mapped to the User object's get[Property] methods.

You will also have to modify the UserDAO implimentation you are using to load in your GizmozId data.
