Hi!

I made a form where user can update their profile at the frontend.
Us use the UpdateProfile snippet from the Login Extra.

Now i would like to use the classExternder extra for adding some fields to the users Profile instead of using the extended Fields. The Fields exist and from the backend i can fill them.

So far so good!

BUT wehen i would like to use the new fields withe the UpdateProfile Snippet it will add some extended Fields instead using the fields classExtender made.

Here is how i tried it

[[!ExtUserUpdateProfile]]
[[!UpdateProfile? &postHooks=`userToGroup`]]
<!-- html, header, some html-tags -->
<form class="form profilPages" action="[[~[[*id]]]]" method="post">
  <div class="formGroup">
    <label for="evzContactPerson">Contact Person</label>
      <input type="text" name="evzContactPerson" id="evzContactPerson" value="[[+evzContactPerson]]" data-value="[[+contactPerson]]" />
      <span class="error">[[+error.evzContactPerson]]</span>
      <i class="fa-clipboard fa fillForm"></i>
  </div>
  <button>Update</button>
</form>
<!-- ... some html ... -->

Here is the definition of the field:

<field key="evzContactPerson" dbtype="varchar" precision="255" phptype="string" null="true"/>

Here is what works (at the manager):

<div class="x-form-item x-tab-item">
  <label class="x-form-item-label" style="width:auto; font-weight:bold; float:none; font-size:12px">evz Contact Person</label>

  <div class="x-form-item x-tab-item">
    <input type="text" name="evzContactPerson" value="[[+evzContactPerson]]" class="x-form-text x-form-field"
            />
  </div>
</div>

You need to add &useExtended=`0` to your code.

[[!ExtUserUpdateProfile]]
[[!UpdateProfile?
&postHooks=`userToGroup`
&useExtended=`0`
]]

Tried it without my postHook, makes no difference. Default User fields like full name are possible to save

Have you changed the name of the 'submit' button? Changing its name can cause this problem.

Also, looking at this line of code...

<input type="text" name="evzContactPerson" id="evzContactPerson" value="[[+evzContactPerson]]" data-value="[[+contactPerson]]" />

On a form I have that works OK I do not have the data-value="" part. I am not familiar with it, but if it is required should it also read [[+evzContactPerson]]

<input type="text" name="evzContactPerson" id="evzContactPerson" value="[[+evzContactPerson]]" data-value="[[+evzcontactPerson]]" />

In my form I make also include ! for the value, so it is uncached.

[[!+evzContactPerson]]

Hm, no. I tried:

rename the Button AND rename the Button and call the placeholder uncached
Result: the extended fields have been filled again (even though i did not delete &useExtended=`0`)

Try to get the placeholder uncached [[!+abc // Without renaming the button
Result: no difference. Nothing will be saved

The data-src is right. Its possible for the user to fill the filed with some default text, stored in the data-src

Is the user added to the group specified in the userToGroup snippet when you submit the form?

Could you try temporarily removing the data-value="[[+contactPerson]]" just to rule it out as a possible source of the problem?

It might also be worth moving &useExtended=`0` up one line so it reads...

[[!ExtUserUpdateProfile]]
[[!UpdateProfile?
&useExtended=`0`
&postHooks=`userToGroup`
]]

Is anything showing up in the error logs?

Check your database does the table its recording to actually exist? if not just create it and you should be good

Database? There is a Database? ;p

I can edit and save the new fields from the manager. So i think this should be fine.

the Problem only exists if i would like to edit and save them from the frontend using ExtUserUpdateProfile and UpdateProfile
