Developer forum

Does it work with the normal template tag for the input? Take a look at the post using the browsers dev toolbar and compare the data when using your own approach...

I looked at the payload and it looks as it should. Image

is there a way to use the @GetString() method on custom fields ?

Like this link explains, i can use @GetString("@UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Name") and that works fine, but i am very unsure of how to get my register user form to take the information from the 2 new fields and add it to their created account

Hi Casper

I am a bit confused about the issue. Can you post a link to the page with the issue - then I'll have someone look into it.

Yeah that is the only problem, i am running on a copy of our site but on my localhost, so very sorry about that :(

This is 2 sections of the form, the first section is a standard field that works perfectly and the second section is my custom code.

I added the Salutation field in the extranet konfiguration panel. it is of type text has a name of Salutation and a system name of AccessUser_Salutation

<div class="col-md-6 col-xs-12">
                                    <div class="form-group">
                                        <label class="control-label">@Translate("Company", "Company"):</label>
                                        <div class="input-group">
                                            <span class="input-group-addon" id="basic-addon1"><i class="fa fa-building"></i></span>
                                            @GetString("UserManagement:User.Company.Input").Replace("input ", "input class=\"form-control\" style=\"width: 100%\" required=\"required\"")
                                        </div>
                                    </div>
                                </div>

What i'm trying to do

<div class="col-md-6 col-xs-12">
                                    <div class="form-group">
                                        <label class="control-label">@Translate("Salutation", "Salutation"):</label>
                                        <div class="input-group">
                                            <span class="input-group-addon" id="basic-addon1"><i class="fa fa-smile-o"></i></span>
                                            @GetString("@UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Input").Replace("input ", "input class=\"form-control\" style=\"width: 100%\" required=\"required\"")
                                            <input class="form-control" style="width: 100%" type="text" required="required" id="UserManagement_Form_AccessUser_@GetString("UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Name")" name="UserManagement_Form_AccessUser_@GetString("UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Name")" />
                                        </div>
                                    </div>
                                </div>

in the last one i try 2 different things

1. @GetString("@UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Input").Replace("input ", "input class=\"form-control\" style=\"width: 100%\" required=\"required\"")

which return nothing at all.

2. <input class="form-control" style="width: 100%" type="text" required="required" id="UserManagement_Form_AccessUser_@GetString("UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Name")" name="UserManagement_Form_AccessUser_@GetString("UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Name")" />

which creates a tag exactley like the standard fields, but the information entered into it is not added to the users created profile.

Hope this makes more sense

Well, cannot debug without a link. At least the entire template. One quote in the wrong place and it will not work...

You have many weird things going on - strip this field to bare minimum and see if it works. That is using JUST @GetString("UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Input")

You have @GetString("@UserManagement:User.AccessUser_Salutation.Input") in your first example, that contains a @ too much...?
