Hi,

I would like to display two fields next to each other in one column of a CB user list. More specifically, I would like to show the user's adress on one line in column 2, and the zip code and city on the second row of column 2.

What I have right now is that the adress, zip code, and city are being displayed on one row each of column 2, but that tends to give me a very long user list. The list also doesn't look that well, since in column 1 I only have the user's full name being displayed on one row.

When I look in jos_comprofiler_lists I can see that the field col2fields contains the following: 40|*|35|*|36, where the numbers correspond to the IDs of the fields I have selected to be displayed.

I assume that |*| is the code for vertical concatenation. Is it possible to change this so that fields 35 and 36 are horisontally concatenated?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi again,

after typing my post I searched for "concatenate" and found that I could achieve what I wanted with the use of a delimiter field.

My apologies for not reading carefully enough. English is not my maiden language and I didn't think of the word "concatenate" before typing my own post.

Now that I think that my issue is solved, I can't really see how I delete my own post.

No worries - glad you found what you needed.

OK,

so I was able to concatenate "zipcode" and "city" so it displays on one row in a CB user list, by using a delimiter field, where I put "[zipcode] [city]" in the description. I call this new field "postal_address" and can display it on one row in a user list. So far, so good.

I am using CB Privacy, since I want to let the user decide whether the contact info ("address" and "postal_adress") should be visible or invisible to other users.

I managed (with some help from Nick) to achieve what I want when it comes to the user's address. I just applied the relevant privacy settings to the textfield "address". But I am not able to apply privacy settings to the delimiter field "postal_address".

Is it possible to apply privacy settings to a field that is of the type Fields Delimiter? When I try, the info in "postal_address" is still being displayed in the user list. When I look in the database, there is no real field titled "postal_address", so maybe that is why I cannot apply privacy settings to it?

If it is not possible to apply privacy settings to a delimiter field, is there any other way for me to display "city" and "zipcode" on one row in a user list, while still being able to have the user decide if the contents of "city" and "zipcode" are publicly visible?
