Hello,

when I post a new AD, I want that some Adsmanager fields are prefilled with CB fields. It works fine when Type is Text Field, Text Area, Number Text, Drop Down (Single Select), Email Address.
On the other hand, I get problems with Date, Check Box (Multiple), Drop Down (Multi-select).

Date: The ad_test_date receives and displays the date from cb_test_date in the format 2016-03-14, so Adsmanager does not recognize it as a date. If I try to use the calendar button, it start from a random date; if I choose a new date, the field display correctly it (e.g. 19-09-2019) .
Both Adsmanager and CB are displaying and editing their own date fields (not prefilled) in the format %d-%m-%Y. For ADSManager I overrided ADSMANAGER_DATE_FORMAT_LC but the problems remain even if I delete the override.

Check Box (Multiple), Drop Down (Multi-select): The ADSmanager field ad_language does not recognize the choices done in CB (cb_language), so it remains blank. I can choose the values from ADSmanager, and in this case they are correctly stored. Obviously I choose the same type (CheckBox or DropDown) both in ADSM and in CB.
The same behaviour happens if I "Use CB FieldValues" and if I choose "Data stored in Adsmanager". For internationalization purpouses, I store both in the "Name" and in the "Value" a string like _MY_OWN_STRING and I override it in the languages section.
Just for a test, I changed the type of ad_language to Text Field. It received the right CB choices in this format: _MY_ENGLISH|*|_MY_FRENCH|*|_MY_ROMANIAN|*|_MY_DEUTSCH.

Change in CB: When I change a field in ADSM, for example a Text Field, the new data are not copied in CB connected field. I guess that this is the normal behaviour and there is no way to update CB fields from ADSM fields. Is it right?

Versions: Adsmanager 3.1.4; Community Builder 2.0.12; Joomla 3.4.8.

Could you please help me? :(

Thanks in advance!

Hello, regarding your original post, I am afraid you mention some limitation of our integration with CB.
You cannot use it with date, language, etc..
Also you are using the prefill featured which means that the adsmanager fields are initialized by cb field. But after that they have separately value.

What is the best solution in your case.

- Remove all the fields you want to "import from CB'
- Override details view (and list view if you want some CB field)
- Use CB API to display user information directly in the PHP code of the details view
(you should get all information for that on CB documentation or in CB forum)

Like this you can get all CB values like avatar, name, last connexion, "is online" etc...

Ah... :(
It's a pity but ok, I will try to implement a workaround.
In any case thank you for your support! :)
