Easy Profile - Joomla Extension

Hi,
in multivalue fields like checkbox the values are stored into Database in JSON format, you can work with arrays by using our APIs

you can use this code:

/* Load API */

require_once(JPATH_SITE.'/components/com_jsn/helpers/helper.php');

/* Sub ID */

$sub_id=3;

/* Alias of checkbox field */

$checkboxFieldAlias='checkbox_field_alias';

/* Get User Object */

$jsnUser=JsnHelper::getUser();

/* Get Current Value of Checkbox */

$userValue=( $jsnUser->getValue( $checkboxFieldAlias ) ? $jsnUser->getValue( $checkboxFieldAlias ) : array( ) );

/* If not already added then add new value and store it */

if( !in_array( $sub_id , $userValue ) ){

	array_push( $userValue , $sub_id );

	$user->setValue( $checkboxFieldAlias , $userValue );

	$user->save( );

}

There is a problem: this function store ID of Subscription, but this ID is not valid because is not a part of Checkbox Options.

I want to create checkbox field for user profile that is not visible to user

to create a field visible only in the backend, you need to set 'Visible in edit profile' parameter to 'No' (screenshot)

There is a problem: this function store ID of Subscription, but this ID is not valid because is not a part of Checkbox Options.

Then condition will be to list all IDs of the plans created in checkbox field.

Some more questions.

1. Is there `JFiled` class for me to use as type of XML field element?
2. If not What is $checkboxFieldAlias? alias field from jsn_fields DB table?

Hi,

Is there `JFiled` class for me to use as type of XML field element?

Yes, you will find all classes into /administrator/components/com_jsn/models/fields/
in this folder there is a special type called parent, you can use it to get data from DB, for example also a list of all checkbox fields with this code:

<field

    name="name_of_parameter"

    label="label_of_parameter"

    description="desc_of_parameter"

    type="parent"

    level="2"

    table="jsn_fields"

    where="a.type LIKE 'checkboxlist'"

    field="alias"

    multiple="false"

    >

</field>

Then condition will be to list all IDs of the plans created in checkbox field.

I think this is not a optimal approach, Easy Profile extends Joomla user management with user plugins (not replace), so registration and edit profile pages are the same of Joomla (tabs are added with Javascript).
The best way to do this is to make a user plugin that creates and controls this field. For example, your plugin called "User - Emerald Subscriptions" already works with Easy profile, because works with Joomla Plugin system.

I think that some useful integration between Emerald and Easy Profile should be:
- Subscription Tab in Profile page - we already plan to make this
- Get data from Easy Profile to autofill invoice information - this is simple, we have a triggers and need to make a plugin for this(http://docs.easy-profile.com/index.php/article/triggers), when user register/update his profile then this plugin update Emerald invoice info (VAT,address,CAP,etc). User need only to set Easy Profile source field for each Emerald invoice field.
- Emerald Action: update Easy Profile field when subscription become active/expired

Other integrations can be between com_users & Emerald, these will works with Easy Profile

This is good idea. Thank you.
