[Slashcode-development] Problems getting user data

[Christopher W. <cc...@ps...>]

Hi all,

I'm relatively new to Slash and just recently getting back into Perl..

Let's say I need more information to be stored with a user beyond things like
their homepage, email, signature, etc.

Let's say I want to add "State" information, or City.

Well, I understand that you can simply add the fields to newUserForm or
editUser, and the extra data will be saved into user_params.

But how do I access the data thereafter?  I can get their homepage by using [%
useredit.homepage %] -- but I certainly can't do [% useredit.state %] in the
templates.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Chris.
