[SOLVED] CBSubs Substitutions inside Profile Custom HTML Field

[SOLVED] CBSubs Substitutions inside Profile Custom HTML Field was created by marriage_minded_man
I'm trying to display a bunch of data on a user's profile, that would include CBSubs expiry data. So I am creating a Custom HTML Field on a Profile tab and formatting it the way I need it.

I can't figure out how to display signup_date and expiry_date for CBSubs plans.

I've looked here:
www.joomlapolis.com/news/18550-cbsubs-gpl-4-1-with-timed-content-taxes-inclusive-price-display-and-plan-substitutions-usable-anywhere

and here: www.joomlapolis.com/forum/255-developer-members-support/242915-how-to-use-substitutions-for-cb-subs-fields-in-joomla-article

Where this is mentioned:

Start Date: [cbsubs:subscriptions plan="PLAN_ID" output="signup_date" /]
Expiration Date: [cbsubs:subscriptions plan="PLAN_ID" output="expiry_date" /]

That seems to work on articles, but not inside a CB Profile Custom HTML field. What's the equivalent code for displaying on a profile (either inside a Custom HTML Field or as a standalone field if I need to create one)?

Thanks.

Have you set "Prepare content using CMS Content plugins" to yes in the "Parameters" tab of the Custom HTML field?

CBSubs substitutions are Joomla content plugin substitutions. So for them to work in wherever you choose to use them that location needs to support Joomla content plugins.

In the case of Custom HTML fields above you need to enable "Prepare content using CMS Content plugins" under the "Parameters" tab of the field as said above.

"Prepare content using CMS Content plugins" set to yes in the "Parameters" tab of the Custom HTML field, but refuses to display unless user is logged in.

<p>[cbsubs:if plan="20" status="A"]</p>
<p>Subscription plan: [cbsubs:plans plan="20" output="name" /]</p>
<p>Signup: [cbsubs:subscriptions plan="20" output="signup_date" /]</p>
<p>Valid through: [cbsubs:subscriptions plan="20" output="expiry_date" /]</p>
<p>[/cbsubs:if]</p>



EDIT: Also tried user="[action_user]" described in www.joomlapolis.com/forum/255-developer-members-support/243809-solved-print-contents-of-single-cb-profile-tab?start=0 but didn't work either.

"Prepare content using CMS Content plugins" set to yes in the "Parameters" tab of the Custom HTML field, but refuses to display unless user is logged in.

That's working as intended. The default user for CBSubs substitutions is the viewing user not the displayed user. If you need the substitutions to check against the displayed user then you need to add user="#displayed" to your substitutions, which should work fine in your usage since you're displaying this through a profile field. Note "user" should always be first. Example as follows.

[cbsubs:if user="#displayed" plan="20" status="A"]
<p>Subscription plan: [cbsubs:plans user="#displayed" plan="20" output="name" /]</p>
<p>Signup: [cbsubs:subscriptions user="#displayed" plan="20" output="signup_date" /]</p>
<p>Valid through: [cbsubs:subscriptions user="#displayed" plan="20" output="expiry_date" /]</p>
[/cbsubs:if]

EDIT: Also tried user="[action_user]" described in www.joomlapolis.com/forum/255-developer-members-support/243809-solved-print-contents-of-single-cb-profile-tab?start=0 but didn't work either.

That topic is discussing using CB Auto Actions where [action_user] exists. That does not exist in Custom HTML fields.

I had tried user="#displayed" too and I didn't check the user profile but the list only.
So yes, you are correct it does appear on the user profile now.
How do I make it visible on the list too?
