Auto Action Code was created by edmundcheong
I am trying to get this to work: jsfiddle.net/ozkary/3zu008ch/light/

I have specifically put the HTML part into:

Method: HTML

check out the html.txt - security reasons the forum is not accepting the codes.

File Attachment:

File Name: html.txt
File Size:3 KB

Return: Print
+
Method: JS (Inline)
check out the css.txt - security reasons the forum is not accepting the codes.

Trigger: After User Profile Edit Display
Conditions: cb_action Equal to Print


I have tried with various combinations (especially for the HTML Return type but yet I hit an error with output of the user profile.

Am i doing something wrong here.. can you show me the right way of putting these into the auto action? Has it got to do with sequence? Tried that as well but it didn't work.

Your condition is always going to fail as it's not a valid substitution you need to change cb_action to [cb_action]. The return output for the HTML probably needs to be an echo; it varies depending on the trigger used. Start with something simple like outputting "Hello!" from an HTML method Code action.

My substitution is correct is. I have the [] on.

Hello works but some how the html codes which I uploaded didn't work. It's working on the jsfiddle site..

I can't help you with custom code. There's no guarantee it's going to work everywhere; jsfiddle is a strictly controlled environment. You'll need to inspect the page code to see if it's even outputting to the DOM as well as the browser developer console to see if the JS maybe erroring.

ok, understood. But is there a user manual or documentation somewhere I could read about utilizing the auto action code in detail?

Thanks in advance.

CB Auto Actions is just a tool so there's nothing to document beyond usecases. Parameter usage is described in each input description. The below is some up to date CB Auto Action usecase videos.

The Code action specifically for HTML method directly takes the HTML string you provide, passes it through substitutions, then outputs it based off the Return selected (probably need to use Echo). You'll need to inspect the page to see what's really going on with your code though.
