Some of the field tooltip descriptions are being read from the database but are not being translated according to default_language.php, but instead remain as, for example, _UE_REGWARN_FNAME. See below.



After some investigation I have found out that they are fine initially but anytime I make a change to the field via CB Field Manager then the description column still has the correct data but is then not translated. Fields that I make no config changes to are left untouched.

Still problems...

I decided to start again with a fresh jos_comprofiler_fields with only the standard fields, ran the Check (and Fix) CB Database tool and verified that the Registration field tooltips were ok. I then set a size on firstname via Field Manager and saved. The tooltip then failed to be translated, as I described in the first post.

In the database I can see no difference between fields firstname and lastname, although only the latter now works.

What HTML editor are you using ?

it could be that that editor adds a <p>...</p> around _UE_REGWARN_FNAME ...

or a <div>_UE_REGWARN_FNAME</div>

Check that HTML source in editor and in database comprofiler_fields column description...this might explain that....

That would make sense, although doesn't seem to be the case. Firstly I use a text editor for HTML (Notepad++) but this happens without going anywhere near a text editor. I just make an edit to any field in CB Field Manager (using Firefox 3) and the field tooltip then will not work. Same if I directly make a change using phpmyadmin. View source on the registration page (for the firstname table row) gives:

[code:1] <tr class="sectiontableentry1" id="cbfr_46">
<td class="titleCell"><label for="firstname">First Name:</label></td>
<td class="fieldCell" id="cbfv_46"><input type="text" name="firstname" id="firstname" value="" mosReq="1" mosLabel="First Name" size="40" class="inputbox" title="First Name:_UE_REGWARN_FNAME
" /><span class='cbFieldIcons'> <img src='http://localhost/listing/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/templates/bubolisting/images/mini-icons/icon-16-required.png' width='16' height='16' alt='* Field is required' title='Field is required' />

Aha, well spotted! I've removed them directly in the database.

The editor is JCE (sorry I misunderstood your question last time). I have confirmed that it is fine with TinyMCE. Seems a bit surprising that no-one has come across this before.

Thanks for your help.
