Profile Extender bug

NozumiNozumi New
edited December 2014 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8

for the profile extender addon, if i enter a custom textbox field named "Location", it will show up beside the users name in the discussions page, like so: "Nozumi Canada". ticking/unticking the "Show on Profiles" didn't do anything

i just want it to show up on the Profile page. how can i fix thix?

(if i add a textbox field named something else it does not show up, so im guessing the plugin automatically flags the word "Location" to show beside the users name, but i dont want this)

    No, it is not a bug, it may not be what you want. But that is what it does.

    Don't use Location Field and your problems will be solved. Call it anything else.

    e.g.

    http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/location

    or use css to hide the class if your goal is purely visual.

    .AuthorLocation on the discussion page.

    I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.

    start learning css and web developer tools, and you won't need to ask these questions.

    add this to your custom.css

    #vanilla_discussion_index .AuthorLocation {
    display: none;
    }
