Hi, I have searched in the forum but so far not found a precise answer to these questions:

  • to display own profile, I know the (I think only) way is to create a search list, with live = user, live value = user->id, redirect to content - correct? Is user bridge activation necessary to do this or should it work without user bridge (I ask this because I am trying to make it work and I have user bridge disabled so far)?
  • in the user integration options, one parameter is the user profile menu item, but in a multilanguage site a-la-Joomla there are multiple user profile menu items (one for each language): which are the consequences of not setting this parameter in the options?

Thanks a lot

Hi,

yes, to display user profile you need bridge

From second question - just try and see what happens, I don't have an answer for this.

Thanks Klas, I have introduced user bridge as per your suggestion and made some experiments, 3 "strange" things happened:

  1. I created a Search&List Type "User List" for listing users and every username has a link to see the details of that user (through the content view). The list works well and hovering on a link I see the link is in the form http://<joomla_root>/<userId>-<username> that is correct, but when I click on the link and the user profile page is displayed, the breadcrumb (both Joomla and Seblod ones) says "Home/User List/User Category/<Username>" where User Category is the category where articles associated to users are stored. I don't want this extra level, it is useless and also is not multilanguage since all users articles are in a single category. Is it possible to get rid of it?
  2. The User List appears as empty to non-logged users: why..? The User List search type has public access (otherwise it would not be empty but non acessible) and myUser content type as well has public access (it had special access and now I changed to public since I'd like to let all users see the user list, guests too.
  3. The user profile page is presented as a normal article, with "written by..., category: ..., Published on..." that are not relevant for a user profile: where to hide them? Editing manually each article is not an option and the menu item linked to the search type is a Seblod one where I cannot find options to show/hide those information.

The more I dive into Seblod the more new things appear :)

Thanks very much

Hi,

1. Might be a bug with Seblod breadcrumbs. Joomla breadcrumbs don't work correctly at all with Seblod so it should not be used anywhere.

2. By default lists are fitlered by viewlevel, to override this see https://www.seblod.com/community/forums/forms-content-types/restricted-content-and-items-display#post50848

3. You can disable this fields in Jooomla article settings and add them into content type where you need them.
