Hi,

I'm trying to use the user field type as an extra field.

From the backend everything works fine, when I click to select the user I get a list of users.

From the frontend however instead of a list of users I get the current user's profile edit form :/

This happens even if I am logged in as the admin in the frontend.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks,
J.

Hi Jalal,

There are a lot of steps and customization when adding extra fields, so it's hard for us to figure out which step the issue happens. Could you please pm me your site url, admin account and fpt info. I will check in your site.

Gardner.

I resolved by using an sql field and looking up the users I wanted to show up in the db.
Thanks.
:).

For anyone else this is what it looks like. 

         <field 

            name="name" 

            type="sql" 

            default="" 

            label="TPL_EXTRAFIELDS_BILLING_INVOICEE"

            description="TPL_EXTRAFIELDS_BILLING_INVOICEE_DESC"

            query="SELECT id AS value, name FROM #__users WHERE id IN (SELECT user_id FROM #__user_usergroup_map WHERE group_id = 10)" 

         />
