This is a BETA. It has a lot of new (complex) functionality so i would like you to try it out.

To install:

• Disable current version
• Remove current version
• Upload this version
• Enable plugin

It is backwards compatible.

Still NOT developed for 1.6.x.

@jeroen

import group filed is not working for me. The system does tell me that it did import it but i am not able to see them on my page

@jeroen, sorry I am using 1.6, it could be the reason . Thanks again

it looks like awesome functionality!
I don't get the rush with 1.6, it's a mid-release while elgg 1.5 is the mainstream stable release.

good work.

@Jeroen,

Looks good and seems to work in 1.6.1 so far. Can you shed some additional color into what the profile typce and category functionlity does. Perhaps, you have an exmaple?

Thanks

@Jeroen lovely work thanks. The layout is extremely user-friendly. Plus the help buttons make it obvious.

I still wish there was a way of tying fields together so that they work off of each other.

E.G. I have 2 fields: Country, City

The city field will read the selection the user makes in the country field and populate the relevant cities. It's almost like a sub-dropdown in a way I guess. Is this difficult to do/time consuming?

@NDD - The categories section is similar to the tabbed outlook in the flexprofile plugin. However this one uses an accordion not a horizontal tab setup. Check out the last two images posted up with this plugin to get an idea.

Hey Jeroen bedant voor dit erg goed, I installed it 1.61 seems to work fine, one lilte thing if I use long text and enter it everyhting comes out lie >p mijn text /p> en het plaatst het bovenaan het profiel..so im not all sure how to fix that for now I left them all regualr text, the only issue with that is if people type a lot they loose the beginning... www.inknit.com

Hi, Jeroen!

I love this plugin. However, I have two problems:

1. It would be great if I could edit fields after I creat them. Right now, I have to delete them and copy their old field names to make any changes. (Okay, not a real problem. Just a nice-to-have feature for the next version).

2. The accordion feature isn't working for categories.

Thank you again for making this plugin.

Hi, Jeroen,

I am trying it with 1.6.1 and it seems to be fine so far... but I notice that when I put Highbridge, Somerset into the "Location" fiels (which is specified as TAGS), it does not break up the tags with the comma seperation, so I can not select just Somerset... any ideas what I can change to make this act like normal tags?

Cheers, great plugin.

Hi Jeronen,

Thanks for adding to your great plugin. Comming acrross and error however when I add a catagory personal then add any field under that catagory.

Fatal error: Call to a member function getSubtype() on a non-object in /home/chad/public_html/mod/custom_profile_fields/start.php on line 385

Is the error message I receive. Any thoughts as to how I can fix this?

Thanks

I really like this, but I want to use GMap on the site. With the Vazco GMaps  plugin I have to have Flexprofile and Forms running so that I can put the Gmap location fiels option into a flexprofile form... and I do not like the forms and flex profile thing, I prefer your approach.  Is there any way to get that option in your plugin? Or do I have to go to Vazco for help?

Hi Jeronen,

Is there a possibility to insert the ProfileType into the Register?!

Regards Sandro

Hi,

great plugin but with this new release i cannot view (in Administration/Replace group fields) the custom group field added with 3.0 release. how can i do?

Thanks

N.B. I've elgg 1.6.1 (but with the 4.0 release this feature worked correctly)

@Jeronen,

I was wondering if you were putting dependent fields(i.e. maybe a question like "Have you ever ..." and radio buttons "yes/no", and if "yes" is selected, another field comes up for an explanation) in the next version, or if you have that kind of functionality already in a different plugin?

Hey Jeroen ,

Meesterlijk werk alweer !!

Je heb een andere draai gegeven voor het indelen voor informatie in de profile had ik niet aan gedacht met de accordion optie, ik dit testen voor de site

Alvast bedank and keep up the good work...

Cheers,

Anand

ooh jah ik hoop dat ik de drop down optie kan gebruiken :P

I think language oriented groups on Elgg are good. I think if people post comments to plugins, out in the open, however, it should be in English for the benefit of everyone, since this is an English run site.  I see a lot of people here with very poor English that at least make an attempt to use their English instead of just posting comments in some other language.  Even Google translate is better than just posting in another language.

Jeroen, do you have a version of your plugin, to test with the alpha release of Elgg 1.7?  I would be happy to test it and give you feedback right away.  I am testing a vanilla installation of Elgg 1.7 alpha.

I have a question that does not have to do with this plugin, but since it's related I thought someone might know how to fix. Here it is. I created my own custom profile fields manually, but have one problem: only the admin can see the output from any profile field. If a user goes to another user's profile, they can't see the profile information, but that admin can. Why is this? I don't understand why the admin is the only one that can see it. Here's the code I'm using so you know what I'm talking about.

From userdetails.php:

<?php

if ($vars['full'] == true) {

?>

<?php echo elgg_view("output/text",array('value' => $vars['entity']->internalname));?>

<?php 

} ?>

In this example, "internalname" is the internal name being called on for the output. So, this totally allows the admin to see the profile output, but it blocks users from seeing it. 

Any ideas?

I tried to use the previous version of this plug-in on Elgg 1.6.1 and got error. Is anyone getting any error on this one?

Errors? what? 404, 400, 500, blank page, what error are you getting?

No, I got something like ... _ts missing ... or sort of. I cannot remember. This version is working with Elgg 1.6.1 so far. I just wanted to confirm about its compatibility.

Hi, it's very usefull plugin, thanks for that ;] I was testing this plugin on 1.5 and it seems to be working correctly only with default theme, but i have moved this plugin after my theme plugin and its working, perfect! :]

so i think it should be like that:

"Needs to be positioned after the profile and theme plugin!!!" Hope this will help to others too, if they can't get it working properly ;]

(on 1.6.1 not working for me ;] ) (and sorry for my english :p )

You know it would be nice to be able to edit existing profile fields...

yes, would by nice to edit fields ;] and to be able to choose profile type in register.php ;]
