Question Kunena and JomSocial. And the signature?

alakentu wrote: Hi all,

Ok, I have followed this issue because I find it interesting to begin with the user "sababer9" has done an excellent job very well worth it to take JomSocial to be added to your core files.

On the other hand lacked better specify how it should be done. Deputy code of the file and customfields.xml forumsignature.php respectively. Both must go into the directory: joomla_root/components/com_community/libraries/fields/both_files_here!

forumsignature.php

Code:

<?php /** * @license GNU/GPL, see LICENSE.php */ // no direct access defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access'); class CFieldsForumSignature { public function _translateValue( &$string ) { $string = JText::_( $string ); } public function getFieldHTML( $field , $required ) { $config =& CFactory::getConfig(); $js = '/assets/validate-1.5'; $js .= ( $config->getBool('usepackedjavascript') ) ? '.pack.js' : '.js'; CAssets::attach($js, 'js'); // If maximum is not set, we define it to a default $field->max = empty( $field->max ) ? 200 : $field->max; $loggedInUser =& JFactory::getUser(); $userid = JRequest::getVar('userid',$loggedInUser->id,'get'); $db =& JFactory::getDBO(); $query = "SELECT signature FROM #__kunena_users WHERE userid = $userid"; $db->setQuery($query); $field->value = $db->loadResult(); $class = ($field->required == 1) ? ' required' : ''; CFactory::load( 'helpers' , 'string' ); $html = '<textarea id="field' . $field->id . '" name="field' . $field->id . '" class="jomTips tipRight inputbox textarea' . $class . '" title="' . $field->name . '::' . CStringHelper::escape( $field->tips ) . '">' . $field->value . '</textarea>'; $html .= '<span id="errfield'.$field->id.'msg" style="display:none;">&nbsp;</span>'; $html .= '<script type="text/javascript">cvalidate.setMaxLength("#field' . $field->id . '", "' . $field->max . '");</script>'; return $html; } public function isValid( $value , $required ) { if( $required && empty($value)) { return false; } $loggedInUser =& JFactory::getUser(); $userid = JRequest::getVar('id',$loggedInUser->id); $db =& JFactory::getDBO(); $query = "UPDATE #__kunena_users SET signature ='$value' WHERE userid = $userid"; $db->setQuery($query); $db->query(); return true; } }

customfields.xml

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <jomsocial> <fields> <field> <type>text</type> <name>Textbox</name> </field> <field> <type>textarea</type> <name>Textarea</name> </field> <field> <type>select</type> <name>Select</name> </field> <field> <type>singleselect</type> <name>Select - List</name> </field> <field> <type>list</type> <name>Multiple Select</name> </field> <field> <type>radio</type> <name>Radio buttons</name> </field> <field> <type>checkbox</type> <name>Checkbox</name> </field> <field> <type>country</type> <name>Country</name> </field> <field> <type>email</type> <name>Email</name> </field> <field> <type>time</type> <name>Time</name> </field> <field> <type>date</type> <name>Date</name> </field> <field> <type>url</type> <name>URL</name> </field> <field> <type>label</type> <name>Label</name> </field> <field> <type>birthdate</type> <name>Birthdate</name> </field> <field> <type>forumsignature</type> <name>Forum Signature</name> </field> </fields> </jomsocial>

Once these preliminary steps to create a new field named "Forum Signature" type is "Forum Signature" (same name ) and the Code Field is "FIELD_SIGNATURE" save changes and go.

Once entered into JomSocial can observe the firm that shows we can add a kunena or (using bbcode kunena).

EDIT
Joomla: v1.6.4
Jomsocial: v2.2.2
Kunena: v1.6.4

EDIT 2: I tried the hack but apparently the maximum length of the signature must be 100 characters and does not exceed this amount of characters. We must find a way to remove this restriction and may also be able to post images.

Kind Regards

Thanks alakentu, you are great.

by the way, working doesnt depend on FIELD_SIGNATURE field code anywhere, you can set any field code if you want.
