Hi
Joomla 3.3
Jomsocial: Version: 3.2.0.5
The only avatar showing is the male avatar. The female members have a male avatar.
There is a gender field in the profile and there are both male and female members.
Thank you
Steve
Hi, Steve.
Make sure that you used gender field type and not select type.
Also please notice that we can't support localhost issues as we can't review them:
www.jomsocial.com/supportYou have installed Jomsocial on a localhost or a non commercial hosting service
Hi
Yes the field is Gender not a select I have attached screenshots.
The site is
theaspirationinitiative.com.au/community

Thank you

Hi
OK I have done some investigation and found a thread that talks about an error in the database table.
I have attached a screenshot. of the table.
Is this the problem?
Also in the Administrator/Members area the avatar to the left of each member is not displaying I have added a screenshot and I have also added a screenshot of why it is not showing as the path in the view source is looking in the:
www.website.com/administrator/components.../user-Male-thumb.png
There is no templates folder in the administration area! Not only not the right path but looking for user-Male-thumb.png when the member is female.

Hi, Steve.
I'm sorry, you entered localhost as supported domain.
So I was mislead :)
Ok, then:
1. Open new thread in Billing Issues section
www.jomsocial.com/forum/billing-issues
and request supported domain change (as you can't do it yourself). As a reason write that when you bought subscription you had no domain yet.
2. Edit your first post and provide backend access, FTP and PHPmyAdmin credentials. I'll take a look.
Hi
I found the cause of the avatars not showing the gender correctly.
I had used the "gender" field type and in the field code I had used "gender" once I changed that field code to "FIELD_GENDER" the avatars displayed correctly.
Earlier in this post I attached a screenshot of the "Edit field screen" which showed I had used the string "gender" in the field code yet nothing was mentioned that the field had to be of a specific string otherwise it would not work, I have wasted a lot of time trying to sort this out.
There is nowhere I could find in the documentation about using a specific field code string all it says is that it must be unique. Obviously the gender field code does not work correctly without using the specific field code.
Are there any other fields like that that will not work unless you give them a specific field code.
Thank you
Steve
Hi, Steve.
As far I know ALL fields should use capitals in their name without any special characters except _.
Hi Michal
Half of the other custom fields I have used have lowercase and it does not seem to make any difference.
The only one so far that has broken the system is the gender field. If you change the field code for gender in the edit pop and put something other than FIELD_GENDER it is not updating the database entry with the new value in other words the field value stays at FIELD_GENDER.
If I change some other field to lowercase that is reflected in the database entry.
