Hi, Mike.

List is created here: ROOT/components/com_community/templates/default/people.browse.php
You can create override and customize file to display additional information from profile.

- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

- Use the "Thank You" feature on any post that helped you

Hi Michal,

Thanks for your reply. We have amended the file people.browse.php and we can display the company name by each user by using the following code:

<div class="cIndex-Content">
<h3 class="cIndex-Name cResetH">
<a href="<?php echo $row->profileLink; ?>"><?php echo $row->user->getDisplayName(); ?></a>
<span class="small"><?php echo $row->user->getInfo('Firm'); ?></span>
</h3>

However when we try to add the country name by each user adding the following code:
<span class="small"><?php echo $row->user->getInfo('Country'); ?></span>

we get the attached display (people.browse.jpg). It displays com_community_lang_name. The code worked fine for jomsocial 2. Can you tell us what field we need to echo to show the country name rather than what is being displayed.

Attached also is the field names in the admin view (jomsocialadmin.jpg).

Thanks

Hi, Mike.

It's because country names in database are stored as language constants.
You need to load constant to variable an then try to decode it with jText::_()...
