The title must contain ALPHANUMBERIC characters only, and it should not contain spaces. The digit in between the opening and closing <bitfield> tags is the bit value. Each consecutive bit value must be 2 x (Previous Value). Sample valid sequence: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32.
* The following step is to define installation process of the bitfield in your product.

{
$user["$optionname"] = ($user['mybitoptionsfield'] & $optionval ? 1 : 0);
}
}In template modifyoptions, add the following code whereever you want the options to appear:
PHP:

</fieldset>* The following step is to add new options to UserCP Option Page on Code Level.
Create a plugin @ profile_updateoptions with the following code:
PHP:
if (isset($vbulletin->bf_misc['mybitoptionsfield']))
{
$vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'mybitoptionsfield', TYPE_ARRAY_BOOL);
foreach ($vbulletin->bf_misc['mybitoptionsfield'] AS $key => $val)
{
if (isset($vbulletin->GPC['mybitoptionsfield']["$key"]) OR isset($vbulletin->GPC['set_options']["$key"]))
{
$userdata->set_bitfield('mybitoptionsfield', $key, $vbulletin->GPC['mybitoptionsfield']["$key"]);
}
}
}Create a plugin @ useradmin_edit_column1 with the following code:
PHP:
if (isset($vbulletin->bf_misc['mybitoptionsfield']))
{
print_table_break('', $INNERTABLEWIDTH);
$mybitoptionsfield = convert_bits_to_array($user['mybitoptionsfield'], $vbulletin->bf_misc['mybitoptionsfield']);
$user = array_merge($user, $mybitoptionsfield);
print_table_header('MYHEADING');
print_yes_no_row('MYOPTION1', 'mybitoptionsfield[option1]', $user['option1']);
print_yes_no_row('MYOPTION2', 'mybitoptionsfield[option2]', $user['option2']);
}Create a plugin @ useradmin_update_save with the following code:
PHP:
if (isset($vbulletin->bf_misc['mybitoptionsfield']))
{
$vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'mybitoptionsfield', TYPE_ARRAY_BOOL);
foreach ($vbulletin->GPC['mybitoptionsfield'] AS $key => $val)
{
if (isset($vbulletin->GPC['mybitoptionsfield']["$key"]))
{
$userdata->set_bitfield('mybitoptionsfield', $key, $val);
}
}
}* The following step is to have the new bitfield added to the vBulletin_User_Dm.
Create a plugin @ userdata_start with the following code:
PHP:
if (isset($this->registry->bf_misc['mybitoptionsfield']))
{
$this->bitfields["mybitoptionsfield"] =& $this->registry->bf_misc['mybitoptionsfield'];
}Once done, rebuild your btifields.
Now, you should be able to access the new options simply by using $userinfo['mybitoptiontitle']
