ISSUE SUMMARY: Profile Question

I have a fitness social network. In the profile question, at sign-up, what is the best method/format to capture a person’s age so that a search can be performed on age?
Example – A search may be performed for – an Endomorph body-type, 40 years of age, male, six feet tall, that’s African American.

- Is there a module or special extension needed to acquire the age on the profile question?
- Can I make a profile question to allow for an age range to be searched, for instance, between 25 and 30 years of age?
NOTE - I want the age of the person for advertising purposes.

Hi Louis,

This is can be done via adv. search, from there you can search range of birthdate, and if you login as admin, you can save the search result to the new menu..

Is there a module or special extension needed to acquire the age on the profile question?
What is the easiest way, or the best question format to capture the age? I want it to be easy and convenient for users to select.

HI Louis,

You can change the profile field, please check my screenshoot.. change your birthdate field, and change display as - age

One more questions for this subject.
What format will the date question look like when the person sign-up? Will it look like the Facebook format - www.facebook.com/ ?
I want a format that will allow potential advertisers to capture birthrates to market ads to users.

What happen to the ToolTip box for the profile questions? I can't find it.

I cant understand, would you mind to explain more, please? probably you provide me the screenshoot

When a person sign-up, how will the format of the profile date question look?

1) will it be a blank box for them to enter a number for their age
2) will it be a menu for month, date, and year, like Facebook
3) will it be just a drop down menu for the year of birth

Hi Louis,

I will show the the datepicker as common date picker on jomsocial date input, and when you set display as age, we will calculate the age depend your datebirth.

thank you
