Thanks for testing. Mmh, what should I say, its a simple select field. Really simple one-word test entries. As you mentioned, the "userdata" variant does show-up. The "userfield" test is just a copied version, where I replaced the "data" against "field"...

I am clueless.

If you say its working on your side, i am fine. Maybe its "one-of-these-days" things
Will check it again, but I don´t see anything else to try.

However, its not sooo important. I can live with it. As far as alternative syntax works.

Just one question from my first post:
Since the userdata syntax works for the simple output, how would I use this syntax in an IF STATEMENT ?!?
I wanted something like:

IF the displayed user has a special simpleselect value THEN display a special image (badge)

Is this simple version correct?
[cb:if cb_selecttyp="MyTestValue"]Show me this sample text.[/cb:if]

Is it possible to write the same example with "userdata" ? Just want to have a comparison.

Tested again with new SINGLE SELECT field.
Values are really simple:

Avalue
Bvalue
Cvalue

I tried again these two tests in a delimiter:

[cb:userfield field="cb_selecttyp" /]
[cb:userdata field="cb_selecttyp" /]

Result in frontend:

[cb:userfield field="cb_selecttyp" /]
Bvalue

Still problems with substitutions in Delimiter field. Testing with CB 1.7.1 and J! 1.5.25. I have 2 different local installations, to make sure its not related to one particular setup.

I also wanted to make sure that i don´t have a general Syntax problem, so I tested with your simple IF examples from your tutorial page. Simple IFs and userdata seems to work fine.

[cb:if user="#displayed" usertype="Registered"] The displayed user is of type: [cb:userdata field="usertype" /] (without OR operator)[/cb:if]


As soon as I try to do an IF OR combi... it does not output anything.

[cb:if user="#displayed" usertype="Registered" OR usertype="Editor"] The displayed User is of type: [cb:userdata field="usertype" /][/cb:if]


My current goal: I wanted to have a field value displayed to the PROFILE OWNER and ADMIN only. Nobody else. The original field lives on another Tab... I display it in a DELIMITER in another profile area, and wanted to restrict the visibility. The actual info is just for the owner or administration.
