Profiles as nodes

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.
This group should probably have more organizers. See documentation on this recommendation.

We are a developers group that are very much interested in using nodes for profiles. There is a module, and some other code already, but that needs polishing.

Especially for bigger and more complex communities, people need features such as finer grained permissions on profiles, categorising of users, or simply search in profiles. Nodes offer all that. We tie them together.

Profiles as Nodes in Drupal 7

What's the go-to solution for making profiles into nodes in Drupal 7?

The current standard for an enhanced profile module is Profile 2 and it is built on the Entity API. And there is no release of Content Profile for Drupal 7. What's the new way to make profiles into nodes?

In Drupal 6 it was easy to integrate the User Relationships module with Content Profile to create a private profile that other users needed to request to view. Now, I'm at a loss as to how to make this work in Drupal 7 since User Relationships does not provide Entity Access capability, just Node Access.

Matching Content Profile Node with Event Nodes

I am using Content Profile Module and Event Module to make modules and user profile nodes.

The filter should do the following thing:

1.Get all the Event Nodes that are still Open for registration.

2 Profile registration site

I am just beginning work on a complex website where I will have atleast 2 types of users.
The fist type of user is "Organization" and will collect information specific to organizations as they register on the site.
The second type of user is called "Client" which also has unique information requirements at registration.

To this end, I set up two separate profile nodes with the necessary CCK fields in each.

My problem is I can't separate the 2 profiles into the different areas when a user tries to register as a "Client" or and "Organization".

Can anyone help.

Combine Content profile module with profiles node linked with a node reference field

Hello,

I've just written a post of my blog http://blog.archizone.fr/?p=447 on a mix usage of content profile module with other nodes called extended profiles linked to the content profile node.
I want to achieve a way for other user to create the profile node before the actual user this profile relates to, in a wiki way.
I would be interesting to have your feedback, your opinion on this method, and per aps ideas about things I've not solved concerning permissions and d7 porting.

Thanks

Editing profile node as part of /user/%uid/edit page

I need to give a seamless implementation of a site, where users can edit a number of bits of information about themselves. The Default form in content_profile is to add tabs (primary or secondary) to the /user/%uid pages. The content_profile_registration module does it right, it allows you to tick a box, and so add the fields to the registration form, using hook_form_alter, to add fields to the 'user_register' form.

Is there a module which does the same for the user_profile_form? or hook_user($op=form, $category=account);

How to sort by last name in Content Profile?

Hi Team,

I'm using Content Profile for my Faculty list, and there is single line field for first and last name. I can only sort by first name since there is only one field for name. Now I would like to sort it by last name. Is there any way to sort by last name since I already have Views created.

If I create two fields for first and last names, how would I display full name in single line using Views?

Thanks in advance.

How to add fields (or what am I doing wrong?)

I've added and enabled content_profile. When I now click edit on the user page I get a tab called "content profile" and if I click on that I get a standard node creation page.

Now I wanted to add some fields, so I went to content types - content profile and clicked "manage fields". I added some fields.
These fields are however not visible when I go to the "content profile" page of a user, nor are they when I edit the content profile node. What have I overlooked? What do I need to do in order to make the custom fields appear on the content profile page?

SUPPORT REQUEST: Correcting bad update

Hello, all.
In a marathon of updates (D6.16-->D6.17 and about 20 contrib mods, which a well-intentioned client planned to do (first timer) herself), including update nag for Content Profile, I inadvertently "updated" Content Profile from 6.x-1.0-beta4 to 6.x.-1.10. Ack! As a result, I have broken links for user/register, user/user/create, and no surprise user profile.

On testing site, I tried uninstalling (yes, through modules page) 6.x.-1.10; deleting the module folder; then re-installing 6.x-1.0-beta4. Still have the broken links issue.

"Content Complete" for custom Member Profile Modules/Forms... "Module Completeness"?

In my usage of Drupal I have come to really like the Content Complete (http://drupal.org/project/content_complete) module that looks at the fields, including CCK of a node, and displays in a block what still needs to be completed.

I am now working with a client who has their member profile in a custom module, as it does have a lot of stuff going on from being able to ad contact to one's profile, etc. etc. in which the Profile module or Content Profile module are not sufficient (and even if they were, it would be a bunch of work to get their site working under those, and no time for that now).

The client wants users to be able to see how many fields of their profile, of our custom member_profile module, need to be filled out, etc.

So...........

I've been trying to figure out how to turn Content Complete into a program that instead of looking at a node's CCK, it looks at a module's hook_scheme to get the fields it populates for a user (must have a uid column), then let admin select which ones are needed for completeness, and then show completeness meter in blocks.

Display settings in Content Profile

I've installed this module and read the readme but can not find the display settings.

From the readme:

  • When you edit a profile content type there will be a further tab "Content profile",
    which provides content profile specific settings.

The problem is that I can not find this tab. These are the URLs that I use to find it:

admin / content / node-type / profile /
admin / content / node type / profile / profile

Can anyone help me?

How to create more than 1 profile (of a specific content-type)?

I made a content-type "student_profile" for students to fill in their profile. I also made a content-type "parent". I want the students to be able to add more than 1 parent profile (to their own profile-page). Most students have more than 1 parent and sometimes their parents are devorced, in which case it would be usefull to have e.g. both parents addresses.

Any solutions?

Thanks,

Mike.

I created Views inside the Content Profile. Where are the php snippets which output the views?

Hello Profiles-as-node'rs,

I have used Content Profile, and I have also created a view inside.

The view lists all the content posted by the user of that Content Profile.

I have created a user-profile.tpl.php inside my theme's directory, and I have entered the following php snippet inside:

<pre>
  <?php print_r($account); ?>
</pre>

I know that if I wanted to output my name, I would do something like this:

<?php if($account->name){print $account->name;} ?>

But, what if I wanted to output a View? Any ideas?

List events (with views 2) using profiles as nodes

Hello,

I'm having significant difficulty trying to get a simple operation complete.

Drupal 6.x, Views 2, and Profiles and Nodes

I have a node called Sports with CCK fields titled field_sport.
Users have a CCK field entitled field_sports.

I'm trying to get a list of only those sports where field_sport matches on of the users field_sports selected.

I've tried filters (too limited), arguments(hours trying to figure this out with no success), and using views templates (hard to work with the data when not object or array).

Any thoughts?

Thanks

New module: Content Profile Form Parts

I've just released the first beta of a new module, with the exciting and extremely inventive title: Content Profile Form Parts.

The idea is to allow users to edit their profiles without leaving their profile page; to do this an admin identifies parts of the Content Profile form the user should be able to edit, these go into Drupal system blocks and are loaded via AJAX when the user clicks a link on their profile.
