How to find user email

Tuesday 18 February 2003 6:15:32 am

Next problem:

I show userdata. Added some extra fields to the userclass. No problem there. But now I want to show the user's email. This is part of the user_account field.

{attribute_view_gui attribute=$content_version.data_map.user_account}

Show's me a complete block for username/email. What should I add the to the user_account to get ONLY the email address? The obviouse sollutions
($content_version.data_map.user_account.email in a number of spellings) doesn't work.

As a sidenote: I would give a lot for a template function like:

{debug print_r $node}

to help in the endless search for spellings and names. If you though old adventuregames were bad...

Thanks.

{$content_version.data_map.user_account.content.email}

I was sure I tried thatone too since I got it working with $node.data_map.etc. But appearantly not..

Ah, bravo. But on an other sidenote, what's the logic with the | ? I have an other problem now: there is the eq() operator but not an unequal operator. No problem, not() is to the resque. But where does it go?? Or how?

Example:

{section show=$node.node_id|eq(21)}

Where does the not() go so the section is shown when the node_id!=21 ? (and more important: WHY?)

Well, I have.. and while there's still a lot of improvents possible there (especialy in the examples and the logical connections between pieces part!) I usualy find what I'm searching for.

But.. check for yourself.
The ne() operator is NOT mentioned on that page.

That's why I ended with the not(eq( )). And while you solved my problem, you didn't realy answer my question on how to combine logical operators since I did try the not(eq($node.node_id,21)) and got no usable results.

Anyhow, as said, my direct problem is solved so onwards we go!

Thanks,
Gerhard

Have to say I agree with you completely. The ez crew have said that with version 3 there will be a new community site that much better than the current one. I don't know how far this is off, but I'd think it should be online with the final at the latest.

Meanwhile, take a look at http://ezwiki.blanko.info and if you find things out, please contribute so that others benefit from it, too. The Wiki works around some of the shortcomings of this forum. Collected documentation will be moved to the user area of the new community site, once it's up in some form, so your efforts will not be lost. Thanks a lot.

Like so many others I'm better in getting in to trouble than in writing down a decent way to solve things. But I might give writing a try one of these days. For now I'm still to much into the sorting out fase myself..

Thanks,
