Member's list - old vs new

Hi
I was checking the members list and I realized that the "location" information is gone. When I first registered to this web site I remember this information was available in this list as I wanted to check the Delica owners in Calgary... I just tried doing the same, but now it's not possible.
Will you be able to add this item to the members list again?
Thx,
Fabio

Thanks Fabio -- I actually hadn't noticed the lack of "Location" until you mentioned it...
As far as fixing it, I'm afraid that this would require some php hacking (well beyond my skill level) -- Hopefully somebody will write a modification code for phpBB3 (this forum software) that will allow for a customized members list -- until then, we might have to live with this.
However, if anybody does know of a "quick & dirty" solution, please speak up!

Could you change the RANK Heading to Location? Just a thought for a quick fix..

I did abit of research and came up with a (not-so-elegant) solution that allow you to view memberslist by location.
It seems that the current inability to sort by location relates to the template this site uses (Bluedrop).
I've now enabled another template ("Prosilver") which DOES allow you to show location in memberslist. To use this:
1. Go to User Control Panel (link at top-right corner);
2. Under "Board Preferences", change "My Board Profle" to "prosilver".
3. Memberslist should now show location (however, you will lose the current site formatting, the external links in the top menubar, etc.)
Hope this helps!
