@Shouvik, I decided to have a look at the code, and removed the datepicker related stuff and and referance to it in start.php and it works a treat now, no silly 1970/1969 dates etc... all good.

Thanks for the tip though :-)

Any idea why when I make a field for "Group Types" and specify show as "Tags" I have a problem when I click that "Tag"?

Group Type: Group or Club

I get a search string like this: /pg/search/?q=Group+or+Club&search_type=tags

But it does not pull up the other Groups with the same Type:

@Mark

LOLZ.. you do need our customized profile and group profile code.. wait for SuperGroups ! I chatted with Zak about sending you SuperGroups PlugIn with "accredited" feature.. hehh. ping me back anytime...

@Dhrup, yep... being driven mad at the moment with a million little irritations!  SuperGroups sounds like a fairy tale :-)

What exactly is this super group and how different is it from this profile_manager plugin, apart from the bugfixes ...?

@shouvik SuperGroups is a, currently mythical, under development successor to Groups Extended, and as rumour has it will have some great features for groups includung something to define  "group types" better.

Just installed this along with the vazco geolocation plugin..
Attempted to add a 'location' field to the list of fields and received a meta data error (I chose the field type of 'google map with marker' as advised)..

I then thought I'd test to see if I could add any other standard type of field instead (text) and although I did not receive any error message, the field did not get added to the list of fields nor to the profile..

any idea what's up? I'm using the latest version of ELGG.

cheers

hi,

the "token mismatch-error" still occurs

i change lines 293 and  294 in views\default\profile\edit.php to:

  <input type="hidden" name="__elgg_ts" value="<?php echo $ts; ?>" />
  <input type="hidden" name="__elgg_token" value="<?php echo $token; ?>" />

and everything works fine

Jeroen, when will this plugin receive it's next upgrade/update? It's been a REALLY long time, man, and this plugin needs more full compatibility with 1.7.2. My primary reason for making this comment is because I am making preliminary plans to use this on my primarily prime site, which right now is in primitive stages.

In case anyone thinks my last sentence is odd, it's little bit of kidding, based on another thread ( http://community.elgg.org/mod/groups/topicposts.php?topic=526702&group_guid=52477 ).

How can I add a custom profile field that I have created to multiple profile categories? When I drag and drop my custom profile field named "age"to one profile category I cannot assign it to another profile category? I have profile manager 5.5 installed on elgg 1.7.1.

@EricD you can't add a profile field to more than one category. Advice: make a general category and link it to multiple profile types

Jeroen, good to see you here! Elgg 1.7.2 stable is supposed to be out this week, hopefully today or tomorrow. Will Profile Manager 5.6 or higher be out this week too? It's been a long time since it's been updated and a lot of issues have been discussed and enhancements have been made I am sure.

Jeroen, do you have any SVN? I think the community could help you to improve this plugin.

I added 5 profile fields, then on the 6th one. i get error:

"Metadata name is an invalid name".

I can't add any more fields,

How do i fix this?

I have installed your Profile Manager plugin, and set some custom field (like sex, date of birth etc..). Now i have the necessity to take the value of the field 'sex' in an other file. I want to change the colour of my theme depend on the gender of the users, so in the css.php file of my theme i want to take the value of custom field 'sex' of the user to use it in an if clause (if ($sex = 'MALE') { echo ' css etc.... ' } else { echo css etc...} )

Can you help me? :D

Thanks a lot for your work.

I've replaced default fields with this plugin properly. But "About Me" field is still shown on profile view. When I edit, I see no About Me on edit mode. So there will always be an empty "About Me" on profile page. How can I edit my "About Me" field, or how can I remove it from profile?

Thanks

@ tek as ..........About me is listed as discription on the list of profile fields

When I upgraded to 1.7.3 the icon uploader on the register broke.  Now when you try to upload a profile icon when you register it does not upload.  Is any one else having this issue?

I'd love to add this to my elgg 1.7.1 but I guess its not being developed anymore? does anyone have this installed on 1.7.1 without any issues??

why don't you install this on your v.1.7.1 elgg site and do some testing and report back ?

I have some sort of a funny issue...i'm now running on 1.7.3...i have enabeld the simplybluewhite theme...and started the profile manager...and it look weird...

Then, I disabled the simplybluewhite theme...and nothing happend...I went to site administartion, did nothing, just saved and trhe installation went back to oriniginal mode...here i was able to run the profile manager fine...i made my changes....went mach to the simplybluewhitetheme...and all is working now...

What the hech....any ideas?

in 1.7.1 create conflict with mods friendsoffriends and people_you_might_know

Data picker doesn t play nicly  with calendar. This is a very powerfull tool, but need to be improved to work with recent elgg version!
