Update a field based on a value entered into another field

JomSocial Active iSEO Expired Socialize Expired

ISSUE SUMMARY: When users select their country (for instance), we would like additional fields to be populated based on the value in the country field. For instance: If a user selects Germany as his country, we want custom fields updated with the following data (here an example):
1. Country selected: Germany

Fields to be automatically updated based on the country:
1. Language: German
2. Abbreviation of country: DE
3. International telephone dialing code: +49
4. Geographical region: Western Europe
etc.

Is there a way to automate this process, formulas, lookup tables, etc. that can be setup to accomplish this?

thanks!

Hi, Ferdinand.

You want so called dynamical fields.
I'm sorry but currently JomSocial doesn't have such a feature.
Consider to hire professional developer who may help you implement it:

- 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
