Hi since upgrading community builder to 2.4.6 and J!3.9.21 it seems all my users profile Email fields are blank / empty in the backend profile.
The frontend profile shows the email data fine.
All the CB tools check come back as green / passed.
I have cleared caches.
Its not a css issue in the backend as saving validates as empty.
I ran a check to ensure the email is being pulled correctly as I assume CB uses the email address mapped to the J! users table as I cant find email core field stored in the comprofiler table.


I created a simple lookup in php

$db = JFactory::getDbo();
$tr_table_u = $db->quoteName('#__users');
$email = $db->quoteName('email');
$c_id = $db->quoteName('id');
$query = "SELECT $email FROM $tr_table_u WHERE $c_id =". {#__comprofiler___user_id};
$db->setQuery($query);
$uemail = $db->loadResult();
return $uemail;

This does return the email as one would assume however the mapping or visibility of the email address seems to be compromised in the backend profile area. Its a strange issue that i cant work out!!

Hi. I am having the same problem.

When I go to Community Builder: User Management, the list of users has the email field populated. I can see all of their email addresses. However, when I click on an individual user to edit, the email field goes blank. And then I cannot save without manually re-entering the email.

Interestingly, this is only happening with new users who have signed up during this past year. Older users from years ago maintain the email field when I click on a user.

I checked the database tables for CB and the email field is blank for recent registrants. So where is CB pulling the email from (I assume the Joomla users table) and why won't it save properly into CB?

Thanks!
