[SOLVED] FEU Edit properties on website

Post by stefantriep »

I'm figuring out if the FEU module user properties can be used on the whole website in an form to edit and to submit.

I want the user to have a profile that can be filled with information on the whole website using textarea's of the properties. Like the change settings template but then only one field at a time.

Already got the option to show the fields using the variables that are available using FEU silent mode. But can't find if the option I want is available.

Anybody got any experience with this one? Or is this one a custom one and not possible with FEU?

Thanks for your help!

You should elaborate further on what you want you want to do as it doesn't seem to be clear enough...
The change settings FEU action seems to be exactly what you need and, given the fact that it currently only supports one template, you can move it to a GCB, make different GCB's with what it is that you need customized and use some Smarty logic on the change settings template to select the CGB according to a flag, be it the page alias or other.
And this is just one of a few methods you can use...
But honestly, I'm having some difficulty understanding what it is that you want to accomplish...

Sorry I'll try to make my question clear.

I want to edit FEU properties of a user, but only single properties on one page. Using the silent mode properties are available in a variable for reading only. I want users to sumbit changes also to several selected properties on a page.

How can I accomplish that I can also edit single properties on a webpage when the user is logged in?

Cut the Smarty code on the template, paste it on a GCB, and call the GCB from the change settings template.
As I said: you can have different GCBs which can be called through Smarty logic... something like:

Code: Select all

{if $page_alias == 'change_a_bunch_o_feu_settings'}
{global_content name='a_bunch_o_feu_settings'}
{/if}

Thanks Jo, you got me thinking about the template options of the change settings template and I've got it fixed
