Hello, I have two questions
1/ about About me section--> When a new visitor registers, it completes the section "Envie de nous en dire plus sur toi?" which corresponds to the About me item. How can he modify this item after registration?
2/ I put some profiles on stars on my page - please see file attached. And all their About me is hidden, i would like to have the city, About me & age, how can i do that please?

Thanks for your support

Hi, Anais.

1. All fields displayed in "About me" are filled during registration. You can change those files in Backend -> Components -> JomSocial -> Profiles -> Customize Profiles.

2. Block with featured users doesn't display any information from "About me section" but only friends avatar list and profile status. If you have php skills you could customize this file:

ROOT/components/com_community/templates/default/people.browse.php below line 72

And load some profile fields content.


- 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.

Hi, Anais.

1. No, I thought that you mean profile fields. All values in them can be changed - by user or admin. User can change them when displaying "About me" and at the end of it is button "Edit profile" then all fields values can be changed. Also edit profile can be accessed from JomSocial toolbar menu Profile -> Edit Profile.

2. In lines 98 and 99 you have:

<div id="user-status"><?php echo $firstuser->getStatus(); ?></div>
<div id="friend-list"></div>

First line displays user status, second avatar list of user friends.
So you need to add your code between them.
Or - if informations will be too much to fit container - remove friend-list.

Try this code to display profile field information:
<?php echo $row->user->getInfo('MY_FIELD_CODE'); ?>

MY_FIELD_CODE - this is your field code (not title). You'll find field code in Customize Profile in Field Code column.

Be aware that if your field contains predefined data like country or gender it will display language constant instead of translation.

Hi, Anais.

Here it is: prntscr.com/5inui0 (I had to enter some field values on backend to make it more visible).

But you have other issue on your site. When you click on "Modifier le profil' you have this; prntscr.com/5inx8l
No profile fields to edit but account data.
This issue is caused by your template... or by overrides you've made in that template.
I switched to Joomla! default template (Protostar) and fields are visible: prntscr.com/5inxxt

So check your overrides or ask template developer for advice.

Hi Anais,

1. you are playing with Jomsocial User Object, please read here for how to use it documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/JomSocial_User_Object

3. you should open this file components/com_community/default/templates/profile.index.php, add this code at the bottom of files :

<script>
joms.jQuery( document ).ready(function() {
 joms.jQuery('.js-collapse-about-btn').click();
})

</script>

I am not sure it will work fine or not, since not tested yet...

anyway, your request lot of mayor costumazition, I suggest you hire the 3rd party developer for that.

thank you
