Suggestion: social media fields on profile that convert to icon, instead of ICQ and outdated fields...

Can we get social media fields on profiles that convert to images, a FB image to click to the user's FB page, YT channel... etc. Like websites do. It could have a Social Media header, icons under. The user just adds their link.

Not many of these are relevant. 

AIM <-- people use?

MSN <-- wow

ICQ <-- I don't think one member has this filled in

Yahoo <-- meh

Jabber <-- never even heard of it

Skype <-- okay maybe

:D 

Thanks

Oh the ability to add more than one website URL as well.

Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong overdue.

Any chance we can catch up with social media in 4.2? ;) 

Don't know what jabber is but I know what twitter is.

I used ICQ in like year 1999/2000 no joke.

Seriously these relics need to be updated and show icons for social media.

On a fresh install, none of those fields are there - they only exist because you've upgraded from 3.4. You can configure which fields exist under profiles in ACP.

It would be nice if you could pick icons for them though.

This is such low-hanging fruit, especially when Font Awesome is already being employed as part of the standard IPS4 framework.

@Charles, @Lindy, anyone else... it's a small request but it actually has a big intangible payoff in terms of making the application seem modern & inviting...

They were there when I posted this in Oct, I clicked edit on fresh install and they were all empty and I copied and pasted them. Glad to see them gone but now let's get some social fields that convert to icons like modern websites have, that would be great!

@djpretzel Agreed.
