It would be awesome if there was a way to be notified, let's say, if a user changed their address (or any specific fields), in their profile.
That way we could use this system to update our regular CRM manually when there is a change.

Hi,
for now not! but it is possible that in future we will implement some trigger for this.
Now, the only trigger that you can use is 'onUserAfterSave' (it is built in Joomla).
With event 'onUserAfterSave' you can get all the field values ​​entered by the user when saving the profile (or registering).

Hi,
we have released a new version 1.1.3.

In latest release we have added various trigger when profile is updated.

You can create a joomla plugin (type system or jsn).
the new trigger are:
- triggerProfileUpdate($user,$data,$changed)
- triggerField<alias of field>Update($user,$data,$changed)
where $user is a JsnUser object, $data is array of new data, changed is array of changed field.

triggerProfileUpdate is launched when user update your profile
triggerField<alias of field>Update is launched when user update <alias of field>

examples of triggerField<alias of field>Update:

triggerFieldAvatarUpdate($user,$data,$changed){
echo $user->avatar; //Old avatar path
echo $data[avatar]; //New avatar path
}


or

triggerProfileUpdate($user,$data,$changed){
if(in_array('avatar',$changed)){
echo $user->avatar; //Old avatar path
echo $data[avatar]; //New avatar path
}
}


In coming days we will update our documentation with instruction and example plugin.

Hi,

I've read the instructions and had a look at the sample. Than I changed the value "avatar" to the field alias I've created (street), installed, enabled.
But if a user changes the a.m. field, it is saved in the database, but no mail is generated. I have to apalogize, I'm not that familiar with the joomla 3 code so I was asking for a hint for the appropriate code, which generates an email with the changed data.

Hi,

thanks for your help, I finally get it working, but the mail always contains the old data (before saving) and when changing only email-adress, the mail is not triggered.
defined('_JEXEC') or die;

class PlgJsnSkeleton extends JPlugin
{
function triggerProfileUpdate($user,$data,$changed){

JFactory::getMailer()->sendMail(
$user->email, // Sender Mail
$user->name, // Sender Name
'[email protected]', // Receiver Mail
'Nutzerdaten aktualisiert', // Subject Mail
'Mitglied '.$user->name.', Mitgliedsnummer '.$user->username.' hat seine Daten modifiziert.'."\n\n".
'E-Mail: '.$user->email."\n\n".
'Strasse: '.$user->street."\n".
'Ort: '.$user->plz.' '.$user->ort."\n\n".
'Niederlassung: '.$user->location."\n\n".
'VG: '.$user->vg.', Stufe: '.$user->stufe.', Band: '.$user->band // Body Mail
);

}
}
?>


I've tried with and without the if-function
if(in_array('value_xy',$changed)){

but no difference. Got presently no clue, where or what has to be changed.

Hi,

$user is old object user
$data is new data array
$changed is array of changed fields

with if statement you can filter to send email only when changed value_xy fields else email is send on every profile update

$data is passed by reference,
this because you can change the values.

for example:
if you want store a sum of 2 fields
$data['sum']=$data['field1']+$data['field2']

Thanks for your explanation. All modified values are sent by mail now except the email itself. If the user only changes his email-adress, the mail is not triggered.
I set up a new variable for each value (example):
function triggerProfileUpdate($user,$data,$changed){
$abc=$data['email'];

This works for all changed values, but not for the mail-adress.

Hi

thanks for the fast reply. I figured out that a routine I've inserted stopped the process. I tried to sent a mail to two different receivers by inserting:
      {
if ($user->username < 20000) {
JFactory::getMailer()->sendMail(
...
);
if ($user->username > 20000) {
JFactory::getMailer()->sendMail(
...

(username is MemberID, cannot be changed)
Looks like I have to change these (don't know how yet). If I use the plugin without this function, everything is fine.

Hi,

I've got the plugin up and running, but now encountered the issue, that a mail is as well triggered, if a new user register himself on the homepage. Is there a way to prevent this behaviour? I've attached the sekeleton.php.

Sorry, but I do not know if I understand.

if you want disable the email from skeleton plugin on registration follow these steps:
replace:
function triggerProfileUpdate($user,$data,$changed){

with:
function triggerProfileUpdate($user,$data,$changed,$isNew){
if(!$isNew){


at the end of function add another } to close the new if statement.

Now the code works only on not new users.

in our triggers we have added a possibility to check if user is new or not.

I hope I was helpful

Hi,
I've tested the plugin on my test-site and it worked fine. Now I've installed it on my live-site. Installation and setup no problem, but if a user changes data, he ends up with a blank page (plugin enabled). The difference between the two sites is, that on the live site SSL is running. If I disable the skeleton plugin, easy profile works excellent. The link to the profile page is SSL-protected (https).
Any ideas or advice?

invalid security token is correct, in every form there is a token, you can send the form 2 times.

if send me your site details we will debug the plugin. You can use the form below the reply in Site Details tab.
