New pages and some potential bugs
Hi,

Is it possible to have additional settings on a seperate page - like do=my_settings and store that information in the user database - but not showing it on the Profile page?

If yes - how can I add new fields to the user DB without having it show up on profile?

Some possible bugs:

1. When changing the email address the notification is sent to the current address not the new (easy fix though - I have fixed it in my installation)

2. When a user signs up - he/she is not automatically Enabled in the applications/

3. When using checkboxes - the settings are not stored (or I don't know how to use it) - I tried setting a checkbox value 1 and name 1 - everytime I update the profile the checkbox gets ticked..?

4. When logging in the user is recirected to the static homepage - I run Dynamic mode and it seems d=1 is not preserved.

5. If you set a field to HIDDEN - it shows up on the profile page anyway..?

That's it for now.. - I know some of these issues are already being worked on - just trying to summarize the issues I have..

Cheers and congratulations - looks to be a great product!

Cheers
Klaus

Hi,

No, it would take code changes (although pretty minor) to do what you need.

As for the bugs,

1. Thanks!

2. A user should be automatically enabled only if the application has auto-create set to yes.

3. I'll look into this.

4. Yes, the Links SQL Auth_Community plugin needs to be smarter about where it sends the user back to after authenticating.

5. I'll fix this up.

Thanks for the bug reports, very useful!

Cheers,

Alex

Hi,

Ref. 2
Where do you set that? In Links or in Communities? (and where..)

It should be set in Community (it's a property of the application - goto Database->Applications and make sure the Links SQL app is set to auto create the user).

Cheers,

It is set Alex - but when I sign up as a new user the User is not being enabled.. I need to do that manually as admin.

Perhaps there is a newer version of Community? I have had this problem since you first installed it
