Compatibility issue on gender field with addons XUIS from ReadyByte
Hi,
Joomla : v3.3.1
JomSocial:v3.2.0.7
Socialize:v1.2.7
Since v3.2.0.6, on XIUS search from ReadyByte, gender criteria is displayed with empty value instead of Male or Female.
In relation with components/com_community/libraries/fields/gender.php.
In v3.2.0.5 the array index was in lower case (i.e. male & female) but now, since v3.2.0.6 the indices are language tokens and value that is posted from gender field is also same as language token. That's why it is not required to use strtolower.
And by using this function strolower , XUIS display an empty value instead of Male or Female.
For the time being changing:
$value = strtolower($field); by $value = $field; solved this compatibility issue
XIUS developers needs to upgrade their extension to work with current version of JomSocial.
Please, contact with them in this matter.

Hi,
you know what ?
They told me the same thing !
we call it, the nobody's fault syndrom.
I understand your point of view, and also the ReadyByte's one. And I'm the customer in the middle.
In mean time we've set the workaround described in our first post.
Cheers,

JomSocial contains user data. Data is stored in database.
Data is used to be displayed in OUR system so we store or gather it in the way we need to use it further in the system.
XIUS wand to use this data.
And they ask us to store data to fit their needs.
Something is wrong here :)
JomSocial is host. XIUS is guest. XIUS is using our stored data. If they want their extension to work they need to fetch data as it's stored by us... not asking us to change it to fit their needs.
I't just like asking Microsoft to change their OS to fit my PC :D
Or Google to change their API :)
Great that you found workaround... but XIUS approach it's just surprising...
