Just overwrite existing plugin to update. I have applied a fix for 1.6 but i personally didn't test it all the way for 1.6.x
sorry jeroen again my same question can i create mandatory profile picture for registration form with this version ?
@sam1 nope, this is a bugfix version.
Oh ok can you guid me how to do it manually if you have time please
@Jeroen Dalsem thanks for update!
Dalsem i'm not a coder :( but I want to ask to you: did you think a similar plugin also for categories plugin to insert also subcategories? :-)
@Jeroen
Is it possible to add google map location for the location?
@Jeroen
Datepicker does not show nothing in my elgg theme?
Is working now. overwriting old one does not work as good. better disable - deleet
add new one and enable.
i want to have "date of birth" field but the problem is date picker is not working and it is displaying some number like 62580000 and date picker is working only while registration
@anurag6713 the number you see is a unix timestamp. The datepicker is storing its value as a unix timestamp. But it should show a normal date. Did you translate the plugin? Did you run a upgrade after installing this new version?
Hey !
I'm using elgg 1.6 and i added the code as you told before, i added the text field and after i had written sth on this field and saved, anything changed. Is is also seen in register form and after the registration process had finished user couldnt see his information also. What can i do for this problem =/ ?
I understood the problem but i cant find the solution, i couldnt add the profile field which includes "space". I added the field "Dormitory Phone" but it isnt work, but i aded the field "DormitoryPhone" it works. How can i write the space =) ?
Hi Jeroen where is the difference in
Profile type: Datepicker and calendar ?
@ElggTurkiye.com I had this problem. The field name cannot contain spaces. The field label can. The field label is the bit that end users see so this is ok.
@alfalive The Calender is just that, a monthly calender. If you needed to go back to 1989 for example then it is a lot of scrolling. The Date Picker allows you to select Year and Month from a dropdown list, then choose the date from the calender. I hope this makes sense?

Lee
@Lee M
Thanks. It make sense :)
Oh ok thanks. But i have one more question =)
I added a drop down field, in one option i wrote "&" but it is seen "&" how can i change this error. If writing a "&" is not possible i can write "and" but i don't want to delete this field and open again new field, because users have already choose sth from this field.
Thanks
@ElggTurkiye there is no problem in deleting a field. No userdata will be deleted. If the new field you make has the same name, you can change it.
@Jeroen in case there are more options, it would be great to set options in more group/area. for example:
I found a good jquery plugin for this and with it you can put radio and pulldown togheter:
The Dropdown Check List jQuery widget transforms a regular select html element into a dropdown checkbox list. google code Downloads. See the DEMO page for a detailed description and live examples.
I hope it is a usefull idea :-)
also possibility to put a simple break line only text, like:
Personal Info________________________________
name
lastname
Education___________________________________
College
Course
is it possible to have options in multilanguage?
when i pick a date, it shows the date correctly till i hit save then on the profile it displays the day 1 day in advance. so if i pick 16 it displays 15
any ideas?
there is a conflict with eventcalendar
why don't use a standard datapicker for all?
I think it's better to put it in the core.
@lord55 you're right. The current datepicker (calendar in core) isn't a good one.
hi @Jeroen did you consider to use The Dropdown Check List jQuery with multi option check like in the example before?
@lord55 yes i did. Probably going to integrate it (if all works well) into this plugin tomorrow!.
