Hi,

 
I am using collective.examples.userdata package ( http://plone.org/products/collective.examples.userdata ), it seems as per instructions in the
 
documentation. I have added three new fields, each of which appear on the
 
self-registration page and also in the personal details screen. When viewing
 
the personal details screen the actual values that a user has entered are not
 
displayed in the boxes. I can add new values, click save and the page reloads
  without the values in the boxes.

 
Also, I try to query the user object using:

 
if hasattr(member, "customfield"):

 
and each of the custom fields are not found on the user, despite appearing on
 
the self-registration and personal information screens.

 
Can you please advise what may be missing, and how to test?

 
Kind regards,
 
Richard

Hi,

just a shot in the dark:

Did you adjust to the new fields in all places? Eg. not only
userdataschema.py, but also adapter.py and the files in profiles/default?

Kind regards,

Hi,

I think so...my files look like this. I also checked the member attributes after logging in in login_next.cpy
and the custom variables added by the adapter are not on the schema.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Did you also re-install the product (using the portal_quickinstaller) after you
put the additional member fields in profiles/default?

Do you see the properties on the "properties" tab of the portal_memberdata tool?

What version of Plone do you use, by the way?

Kees

Hi,

I'm not using the product directly, I've copied the files into my default site profile and registered there. I've tried re-installing this and get the same problem.

I checked the portal_memberdata tool and the custom fields are not listed there. I'm using Plone 4109.

The additional fields do show up on the self-registration page (and pass validation to create an account). The fields also show up on the personal-preferences view for the logged-in user, but the values entered for the fields are not persisted.

Thanks,
Richard

What about:

member.getProperty('customfield')

I don't think they're stored as attributes necessarily.

You probably need to do some pdb love where it's getting set.
