    Default new fields not showing in Profile

    Hi,

    I add some new fields but they will not show in profile?
    In edit profile they are still available...
    I checked the box "view Profild field "and "edit profile field"!

    any Idea?

    Post Not a bug --newly added field not showing in profile view

    1) Newly added field will NOT SHOW IN PROFILE VIEW for the existing profiles, until those profiles gets updated. This is due to profile caching feature of dolphin.

    2) Profiles fields that are empty or no values in it will not show in profile view.

    Default Not sure it's not a bug?

    I created a new field before I even sign up as a member.....put in the information in the new field went to view profile and nothing as usual. May those who know how to actually make this work do a step by step instruction so that we can get pass this, since it seems to be a problem so many is having.

    Thanks.

    It would be helpful to duplicate an error.

    I have followed this link, but there is not solution given, just more questions on how to fix it.

    I used to have the same problem back along time ago with the older dolphins, but now I need to add some fields in the new dolphin, especially a memo field.

    In fact all the other fields I have added show up just fine, just not memo fields.

    IN file : /base/scripts/BxBaseProfileView.php

    IN function : showBlockDescriptions( $sCaption )

    PHP Code:
    function showBlockDescriptions$sCaption )
        {
            if( 
    strlen(  $this -> _aProfile['DescriptionMe'] ) )
            {

    '<div class="rss_item_header">' process_text_output$this -> _aProfile['Headline'] ) . '</div>' .
                    
    process_smilesprocess_text_output$this -> _aProfile['DescriptionMe'] ) ) .
                
    '</div>';
                echo 
    DesignBoxContent_t$sCaption ),  $text);
            }
            
            if( 
    strlen$this -> _aProfile['DescriptionYou'] ) )
            {
                
    $text '<div class="discr">' process_smilesprocess_text_output$this -> _aProfile['DescriptionYou'] ) ) . '</div>';
                echo 
    DesignBoxContent_t'_Ideal match description' ), $text);
            }
            
            
    // START ADDED CUSTOM FIELD MEMO TO SHOW IN PROFILE VIEW
            
    if( strlen(  $this -> _aProfile['CustomField'] ) )
            {
                    
    $text '<div class="discr">' process_smilesprocess_text_output$this -> _aProfile['CustomField'] ) ) . '</div>';
                echo 
    DesignBoxContent_t"_CustomField" ),  $text);
            }
            
    // END ADDED CUSTOM FIELD MEMO TO SHOW IN PROFILE VIEW
            
        

    where "CustomField" is the field name of your memo field.

    Hey, this worked great for my site, but i have a small issue. All the memo fields i've added with this method are set as mandatory, and even once i've changed this in profile fields manager, they remain set to mandatory. I'm a novice at best, so is there an easy fix to this i'm missing?

    EDIT: Forgot to mention that i can leave both fields blank in edit profile and save changes without a problem.
