smd_bio : store additional biographical info about your users

Teemu · 2012-05-29 13:47:21

Another question:

When using <txp:smd_bio_data> and widget setting on front-end, my textareas don’t have any size attributes? Textarea size settings work in the backend user manager . I use beta 0.40 with mem_form.

Ooops, I forgot to set the table collation properly. Try the latest beta which will upgrade the tables to UTF-8 when you next visit the Bio config panel. Should also fix the textarea sizes for you.

Please let me know how you get on. I’m planning to release this version later today.

New beta works great. I uninstalled the old plugin and then installed the new one, which seems to clear the smd_bio tables, but won’t drop them though. Fortunately I had only test data in.

Another question…

When displaying data from textarea with <txp:smd_bio_data> value attribute, would it be possible to keep line breaks as it shows inside the textarea?

I just plugged in the beta download to take it for a spin, and I have some warnings that are persistent in all production status modes when I access the extensions tab. Nothing special about the environment I’m running it in.

It’s suposed to do both. Best upgrade path is simply to reinstall the new one so data is preserved. I’ll have to look into why it’s not dropping the tables on deletion.

When displaying data from textarea with <txp:smd_bio_data> value attribute, would it be possible to keep line breaks as it shows inside the textarea?

Ah, didn’t test that bit. Of course it should. I’ll fix that for you today, with luck.

For some reason on some servers, this pops up. Since I run the upgrade check on every visit to the Bio config panel you’ll see it every time. I normally silence the warnings with PHP’s @ before the call but forgot this time. Will fix.

Out of curiosity, did your tables get upgraded to utf8-general-ci, or are they still latin? I have never worked out if this warning means the table alteration fails or succeeds.

rsilletti · 2012-05-30 11:00:30

Tables are currently set to utf8-general-ci.

Please try the latest beta version which fixes the newline issue in textarea value fields, and I’ve also found another way to check the collation which is not only less prone to errors, it saves a query too. Result!

Feedback gratefully appreciated as ever, please.

Teemu · 2012-06-01 10:33:19

I can confirm newline issue in textarea value fields is fixed. Thanks again Stef!

rsilletti · 2012-06-03 03:52:34

All looks well on the update.

Hi!
I have read the Parsing_Tag_Attributes on text boot and also the comment of johnstephens and Bloke but my code don’t work. It output nothing!

<txp:smd_bio_info author='<txp:comment_name />' items="sign" debug="1">{smd_bio_sign}</txp:smd_bio_info>

Obviusly, in a comments form and all comments users are registred.

Oooo!!! I’m stupid!!! <txp:comment_name /> it’s a link!!!!!

<txp:smd_bio_info author='<txp:comment_name lnk="0" />' items="sign" debug="1">{smd_bio_sign}</txp:smd_bio_info>

Now it’s work!

Has anyone figure out a way to post data from mem_self_register straight into a smd_bio field?

I’m finally biting the bullet and converting my customised table of user data over to smd_bio – it seems to make sense as all of the work has been done for me (thanks Stef!).

The only problem I have is that I want to be able to enter a surname on the registration form. I’m using jQuery to create a username that is the firstname plus the first character of the surname. Of course, all of this works but the surname is now lost – someone has to go back in and re-enter it. Ideally, this could all be done in a single step, but I’m not good enough to figure out how to modify a plugin to post to two different tables.

Thanks for any ideas.

Hello! I want to have a couple specific authors report to another author, and I want the head author to be able to login using cbe_frontauth and see the information about the authors that are under them. I have all the login working and got it working to show just their articles, but cant seem to wrap my mind around how to get this to work. I have a field in smd user manager that called “reportto” where I enter the username of the author that they report to. This is what I have, but I think the logic must be wrong because it seems like I should define this in the bio_author field and not need the if_bio:

<txp:smd_bio_author author=“SMD_ALL”>

<txp:smd_if_bio field=“reportto” value=”<txp:cbe_frontauth_whois />”>

<txp:smd_bio_info fields=“name, RealName, department” labeltag=“dt” wraptag=“dl” break=“dd” />

</txp:smd_if_bio>

</txp:smd_bio_author>

I would greatly appreciate any help to solve this!
Thanks,
Caleb
