Topic-icon Again problems with importing data to Jomsocial

Fred,
Once again, sorry for the delay and troubles. We got to the bottom of the problem, and it's a pretty silly bug on our part. Basically, we have a check in our code where we're only importing a user's profile information into JomSocial fields that are marked as "Registered". We'll be releasing an updated profile plugin in a day or so, but if you'd like to make a quick code change, you can implement the fix now.

If so, please edit /plugins/jlinkedprofiles/jomsocial.php At line 109, you'll see:
$filter = array('published' => '1', 'registration' => '1'); //, 'required' => '1');
Simply remove that registration portion, so it looks like:
$filter = array('published' => '1'); //, 'required' => '1');

Sorry this bug worked it's way past our automated tests. We'll update them to be more resilient with different configuration settings of the JomSocial fields.

If you don't want to make the code change, just grab the new zip package in a day or so (when the JLinked Overview page notifies you that the JomSocial plugin is out of date).

Thanks again for your patience and notification of the issue!
Alex

I've changed it Alex. Thanks for that. And my compliments for your honesty.
Probably my last question for this subject
On the profile page of Jomsocial - in your demo - you can see the whole profile of LinkedIn.
Contact Information
Location Country Code
Location City
Twitter
Public Profile URL

Industry
ETC.

How do I get all the fields on my profile

Fred,
First off, we just pushed out an update to JLinked. It includes the new JomSocial profile plugin as well as an update to the component for some minor issues found after the last release. Didn't think it would be ready that quick, or I would have just waited to tell you a little longer :)

As for showing the fields in the user's profile in JomSocial, that's simply done in the JomSocial Custom Profiles admin area. Mark the fields you want to display as "Published" and "Visible", and it should show up in the front-end area for users to see.

Hope that helps!

Hello Alex
As far as I understand: First make de fields in JS and connect them with JLinked. And publish it. I did that. But the fields don 't show up in the profile. I'll run the update first and try again.

Componist,
Sorry for the delay! After you create the fields in JomSocial and publish them, there are other options for where and how they are shown, such as "Registration", "Visible", etc. You'll want to make sure the "Visible" parameter is checked in the field.

That is what makes it show to users on the front-end. The idea is that you can actually get information from users that admins see, but not all users. It sounds like you have some 'hidden' in that way.

Hope that all helps, but if not, let us know!

Thanks,
Alex
