Member's Country

[Fighting 13th]

I just bought and installed this. Member country flags appear in profiles but do not display anywhere else. The 'Display EVERYWHERE' option is on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,

Ryan

Try in default theme to amke sure it isn’t a issue in your custom theme.

I got this working right now in 4.2.8:

Thanks so much for the video, it was very helpful.

I have installed latest version, disabled all plugins and add-on apps, plus tried the settings you have outlined above and other combinations (including no view permissions at all for anyone) and it still shows the flag to all usergroups.

 I've had to disable for now until I figure out why its not working. 

Thanks again for trying.

 

Hi Adriano,

This is still happening for me.  The permissions are not working.

Has no-one else reported anything similar?

I'd greatly appreciate help in fixing it.  I can see that it works for you in your demo but this is not how it works for mine.  I tried replicating the same settings and any other combinations I can think of but no matter what all members can see the flags.

I have tried disabling all plugins.

This didn't happen in the version prior to December last year.

Send a PM with ACP credentials. I’ll take a look during weekend.

Example, I have selected view only by Administrators and Moderators, but general members can still view it on other members' profile pages.

Is that the problem?

If so, it is like since version 1.0.0. It shows to everyone in member profile:

		{{if $member->members_country}}
		{{$lang = "country-" . mb_strtoupper( $member->members_country );}}
		<li>
			<h4 class="ipsType_minorHeading">
				{lang="members_country"}
			</h4>
			<span>
				<i class="ipsFlag ipsFlag-{$member->members_country}"></i> {lang="$lang"}
			</span>
		</li>
		{{endif}}

The only check it does in profiles is if the member has a flag. It always worked like that.

The permission "show everywhere" applies to selected user groups.

• Version released in december fixes an error in registration screen.
• Version released in february fixes an error on uninstall process.

Profile never was touched and always worked like that. You are free to download previous versions and look yourself:

I can apply permission there too in a future version, like 4.3.0, if that helps.

[Stormlilly]

OK, so this setting doesn't apply to the profile page?

I had it working successfully for a long time and then it changed.  Perhaps this is what you are referring to.

For our community I use this as a tool for our staff to detect trolls and spammers.

We are also diligent about privacy and so it's not very user-friendly for members to have their country revealed to others on their profile.

I'd love for the plugin to be able to respect the permissions settings on the profile page also.

Thanks for considering.

Yes, doesn't apply.

Man, I know the resource. I've made it. ?

Believe me... it NEVER used any restriction in profile page. As I said, you can download any version (1.0.0 for example) and you will see.

I'll add it in next version.

What's New in Version 1.1.2:

• Applies the permission for those who can view member flag also in profile page

[Stormlilly]

lol maybe I just thought it was working. 

Thanks for adding it in the next version Adriano, I appreciate it.

Update your install. 

[Stormlilly]

Thanks Adriano.

Have installed and it's almostttt perfect lol ((sorry))

Even if I don't allow a usergroup to edit their country or see any flags they can still see this in their profile:

Ideally they should only have the ability not to see them if they have permission to see them in the first place.

Know what I mean?

Hello,

When I changed my country in the settings to UK the profile did change to the correct country, however the setting drop down box shows china, so from an end users point of view looking at the settings only it would appear that they can't change their country as it always resets to china.

Is it possible to change it so that the drop down shows the last selected and saved country?

Currently the select box defaults to the country of the IP Address you're using at the moment you're browing the board.

I'll take a look when I'll have to update to a new version.

Thanks, not sure why it is showing China for me then, I am currently in UK and using a UK IP address.

Hi @Adriano Faria

I just noticed, that the "Country" tab in the account settings responsible for the Flags Display, is not shown anymore there 😞 

It only shows there when I select this group in the plugin settings for "Groups allowed to change/omit the country". If the group is not selected there, the menu on the picture below is not available:

But! If I go to this menu using the direct link: https://www.myforum.ru/forum/settings/?area=country , I will be able to access it.

So I summarize the problem above in two sentences:

1) "View member flags" button is available only when going to the direct link, the menu "Country" is not shown in the account settings.

2) When a user is in one of the selected groups in the plugin settings "Groups allowed to change/omit the country", this user will have the "country" menu available in his account settings!

Please help to check, thanks!

• Adds member country in the ACP profile

[AmericanRev2]

Can this use GEOip to automatically put users state flag under avatar on posts?

[Adriano Faria]

No.

There isn’t one single line in the entire plugin to remove data so it won’t remove anything!

Make sure your settings are right, like if there are groups selected to view flags. 

“Adds member country in ACP profile” isn’t a setting. It simply Adds the country there, as shown in the image:

Plus: you are showing as Member so IPS Geolocation is disabled in your board.

Important Notice:

• IPS Geolocation is an active license perk so you need to have an active license to countries get picked by IP Address.

I reinstalled it with the last version. Also I made the settings like in the next p

•  settings are like in the photo
• Geoip activated like in the photo

With all these, members profiles are not auto-updated with the country flag.
