[SOLVED] Preferred address switch

I am working with an organization whose member database has both home and work address information and a field denoting which is preferred. I use an php import script to create users, and in the past used the preference field to determine which address to import. Instead I would like to use the preference field to control which address is displayed on the member profile, while keeping both addresses available for member update. Something like a logical switch that could be applied to the profile fields to determine which is displayed. Thanks in advance for your help.

This could easily be done with an IF substitution statement and delimiter fields. I recommend creating a tab and placing all your address fields plus the toggle checkbox field on it. Then set that tab to be in a not shown on profile position. Once done create a delimiter field with the below substitution (change as necessary) for each address field "City, State, etc..."; this would allow for toggled display.

[cb:if cb_showaddr="1"][cb_country1][/cb:if]
[cb:if cb_showaddr="0"][cb_country2][/cb:if]

You can find further information regarding substitution usage at the below tutorial.

This works great - the idea is to put the delimiter field on the tab you want the info displayed on, and then the source fields on a hidden tab, along with the selection checkbox. I had looked at delimiter fields but hadn't realized you could use IF statements, thanks for pointing me to your page on this.
