Profile Field Problem

[sofos]

Hi everyone,

I would like to implement on my Forum the "Addess" Field when an user is going to edit his profile.

I've done it but when I try to insert the Address:

I don't want to insert all the info because each user wants his privacy so they just want to add the City and Region.

How can I make the other values optional?

Thanks in advance!

You don't - it's all one field, and you either make it Required or not.

For your situation ("each user wants his privacy") I suggest you don't make the field required.

Ehi Nathan,

how can I set them on not required?

Edit the field in the ACP and change the 'Required ' option.

I added one textfield for city and one with checkboxes for countys in my member profiles. That way they can add only those parts of their address. Just a thought if your members don't want to tell their exact address.

I don't see any 'Required' option:

Can you be more precise please? Maybe a screenshot? Thanks for the tip!

Sure!
In profile:

 

In Admin I choose Select box (sorry, got that wrong in last post) for county and Text box for city.

Hmm....

That's a screenshot from IPS 4.1.9.4....and it looks like that option is no longer available in IPS 4.2.x

So from 4.2.x they made it required.

Another little question...

I've got the following field...

With the "Interests" that an user can mark....

Now in future if I want to export the list of user that clicked for example on "Elettronica" is possible?

Thanks for all the answers!
