Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted July 31, 20168 yr For some reason I am really struggling with this simple concept, what is the difference between profile information, and profile fields? Thanks for anyone who has a stick to whack me upside the head with! John
July 31, 20168 yr Community Expert Profile Information sounds like a category. Whereas Profile Fields are the individual questions for it like "What is your Gender?", "Location", etc..
July 31, 20168 yr Author Thanks Jim, where does Profile Information show up at the users profile page, and same with profile information, where does is show up at the users page?
August 1, 20168 yr It shows up in your profile. "Profile information" is a default profile field group that is shipped with IPS. Profile field groups cannot be customized by your members. Profile fields refer to the individual fields of information that users can fill in. (Yes, lots of arrows, I like 'em) I'm not exactly sure how the IPS Marketplace one works, that could be a plugin of some sort that comes with IP.Downloads. I haven't checked.
August 2, 20168 yr Author Thank you TSP, I appreciate the information, it is clearer now, thanks for that.
