Get entries from profile to language
Hi,
does anybody know how to get entries in the profile and add it to the language file? One example:
When user A has written into his profile: school:Harvard, user B: school: Cambridge and user C has nothing, then I want to get these informations and place it into the river, for example, when someone updates the profile:
User A, a Harvard student, has updated...
User B, a Cambridge student, has...
User C has updated...
I use elgg 1.7.7, but this should be similar to 1.8
Oh: I also use the profilemanager Plugin, so adding the field "school" is no problem :-)
It was told me, that this would be possible with get user entity. But how? I thought of something like:
'Languagetag' => "%s <?php get(user_entity); if(now here I need the profile field, no idea, how to get it=Harvard){,a Harvard student, } if(...=Cambridge){,a Cambridge student,} else {} ?>
Is there any way to get it working?

You must log in to post replies.something like ==>
<?php
//
/** e1715\mod\profile\views\default\river\user\default\profileupdate.php **/
$performed_by = get_entity($vars['item']->subject_guid); // $statement->getSubject();
/** 'profile:river:update' => "
%s updated their profile ",
User A, a <Harvard student> updated their profile
$School=$performed_by->name
$School = $performed_by->SchoolMetaDataName **/
$School= $performed_by->SchoolMetaDataName;
$School= "?Student`NoWhere?";
if ($School==Harvard)
$School= ", a Harvard student";
if ($School==Cambridge)
$School= ", a Cambridge student"
$School=$performed_by->name.$School;
//
$url = "<a href=\"{$performed_by->getURL()}\">{$School}</a>";
$string = sprintf(elgg_echo("profile:river:update"),$url);
?>
<?php
echo $string;
?>
So, I add
$School= $performed_by->SchoolMetaDataName;
$School= "?Student`NoWhere?";
if ($School==Harvard)
$School= ", a Harvard student";
if ($School==Cambridge)
$School= ", a Cambridge student"
$School=$performed_by->name.$School;
to the en.php? Or the commented part? What I want to make is that I only have to modify the en.php. Is there any way to do it? With a code that is possible to do this, you are able to make many plugins to make your site better for the users...
