[SOLVED] Customizing Profile Layout - delimiter fields not working for images?

11 years 11 months ago - 11 years 11 months ago #243049 by Michael2014
Hello community,

I came to love working with delimiter fields in connection with HTML as an easy means to format database content.
But now I am a bit stumped. I can´t get a simple image to show up in the profile. Here I thought that delimiter fields worked for images in the same way that they do for other data. But if displayed it only shows the path to the image. I can´t get it to work with "img src" or other html tags. I did quite some searching for the last hour, but came up with nothing?! My search fu may not be up to par, but I think I did quite some searching. So at this point I have to quit and ask for help :blush:

Thanks in advance!

My guess is you're using [FIELD_NAME] substitutions. Such substitutions are raw data. They are formatted. If you want to match a fields actual profile display value you should use the below usage.

[cb:userfield field="FIELD_NAME" /]

Please see the below tutorial for further substitution usage information.

SOLVED!!!

I do wonder why I can´t use the raw output of the field and put it into a container, i.e. code 1:
[ img ] [cb:userdata field="avatar" /] [ /img]
:code 1

to get a little more control over the data?

Thanks again !!!

Yes, you can use the raw output like that too. Example as follows.

Code:
<img src="[avatar]" />
