Hi
I doubt I am the first so if someone could point me at the solution...
I have setup x3 profile categories - Male, Female and Business, using the Manage Form feature.
I have created a field for them in the first profile form I created.(Male)
It is selectable on registration so a new member chooses their profile type.(Male, female or business)
this works fine so far.
but once they log on and go to profile edit they get the message 'no profile form exists'
If I remove the wording from the form configuration page field in 'Profile Category'
i.e. remove 'Male' and leave it blank.
then the profile form becomes available to them.
but then it is a generic one and I need to create 3 profiles to be selected based on the above criteria (male, female or business) that is chosen at registration.
is this something that needs futher coding. I got the impression from the Readme.txt that maybe some features are included that dont yet do anything.
any help appreciate

You must log in to post replies.You have to set the access control for the form so that your users can see it. Edit your form to do that.
Hi Kevin
no dice.
I changed it to public from 'logged in users' but still not even admin can see a profile to edit when I add info into the 'profile category' field, if I clear that field then the profile shows up.
any other ideas or can I PM you login details to take a look?

Ah sorry, I missed that point in your original post. The profile category feature is not supported without custom code. I suggest that you don't use that.
Thanks for your help Kevin I have had to revert back to 'profile manager' instead
