[SOLVED] Trying to Verify Current Password CB field against Joomla user password

How can I add a tag to the custom cb text field input? I see where I can add code in a trigger, but that code has to be able to load within the input. In the fiddle for example I need to add:

Just use jQuery and add or change the attributes. You don't need any sort of onclick behavior. Code action with Method set to jQuery example as follows.


You'll need to right click and click Inspect Element in Chrome or Firefox to inspect the DOM of the input. This way you can get its ID to use in the above jQuery example.

I am not the best with jQuery, but when I inspected the element with Firebug I get the cb field name back as the id. In this case it is cb_currentpass. I then set up the trigger as I understood it to be:



After refreshing the user I tested it and the field type did not change. Can you please have a look at my trigger config here and let me know where I am off?

Hey Kyle,

Did you have a chance to review my last post?

Seams to work fine in all my tests using the below for example.

Type: Code
Triggers: onBeforeUserProfileEditDisplay
Access: Everybody
Method: jQuery
Code:
The above example makes my cb_emailaddress behave like a password HTML type. to test begin typing and see if all that is visible is stars. This will not change the storage or validation behavior at all though. It's just going to change its display behavior.

Thanks for the clarification. I have attempted the exact setup as you noted and am not able to replicate it. I have a few more tests to run on this and I will let you know if I am able to uncover any results.
