Check this thread on githbub: https://github.com/bludit/bludit/issues/963

tldr; use firstName field for a short description, and then just show field's content in theme using below snippet:

Code: Select all

<?php echo $page->user('firstName'); ?>

I don't remember if you can format text in this field using html tags, but I'd give a shot.

Nice workaround, I like it! I will try to find a nice design with it.

To add a bio for the users:

bl-kernel -> user.class.php

public function profilePicture() { ... }

Code: Select all

public function bio()
	{
		return $this->getValue('bio');
	}

Code: Select all

$tmp['bio'] = $this->bio();

public function json($returnsArray = false) { ... }


bl-kernel -> users.class.php

Code: Select all

protected $dbFields = array(
	'firstName'=>'',
	'lastName'=>'',
	...
	...
	...
	'bio' =>''
);

bl-kernel -> admin -> views -> edit-user.php

Code: Select all

<!-- TABS -->
<nav class="mb-3">
<div class="nav nav-tabs" id="nav-tab" role="tablist">
	<a class="nav-item nav-link active" id="nav-profile-tab" data-toggle="tab" href="#profile" role="tab" aria-controls="nav-profile" aria-selected="false"><?php $L->p('Profile') ?></a>
	<a class="nav-item nav-link" id="nav-picture-tab" data-toggle="tab" href="#picture" role="tab" aria-controls="nav-picture" aria-selected="false"><?php $L->p('Profile picture') ?></a>
	...
	...
	...
	<a class="nav-item nav-link" id="nav-social-tab" data-toggle="tab" href="#bio" role="tab" aria-controls="nav-bio" aria-selected="false"><?php echo "Bio" ?></a>
</div>
</nav>

bl-kernel -> admin -> views -> edit-user.php

after the <!-- Social Networks tab --> ...

Code: Select all

<!-- Social Bio tab -->
<div class="tab-pane fade" id="bio" role="tabpanel" aria-labelledby="nav-bio-tab">
<?php
echo Bootstrap::formTextarea(array(
'name' => 'bio',
'label' => 'Bio',
'value' => $user->bio(),
'class' => '',
'placeholder' => 'Fill in some information about you',
'tip' => '',
'rows' => 10
));
?>
</div>

Echo the user bio:

Code: Select all

$allUsers = $users->keys();
foreach ($allUsers as $username) {
$user = new User($username);
if ($user->enabled()) {
echo '<p>'. $user->bio() . '</p>';
}
}
echo '</div>';

In the (bl-kernel -> admin -> views -> edit-user.php) bio-tab it just echo 'Bio'. :

Code: Select all

<?php $L->p('bio') ?>

The languages must first be updated.
