Hi

I'm looking to substitute the default linking text from social network user id field with graphics. For example, I've called up a Facebook icon from the media library by using an image tag in the Profile Value layout box of the fb_userid field. The button shows up fine but I'm not sure how to link it back to the user so that clicking on it connects to their Facebook account, if indeed this is possible?

Thanks.

Hi
My apologies, I didn't make myself clear in the first post, and references to linking were the problem.

What I would like to do is to substitute a button image for the default text "View Facebook Profile" which appears on user profiles if the Facebook ID field is set up to show this. I put a link to a button image in the Profile Value Layout box, but this obviously just overrides any link to the user Facebook profile, and just shows a static button image. I think basically I'm not expert enough with CB substitutions to do this, if it is possible. I have attached some relevant screen grabs.

As well as being able to do this on a field by field basis, I'm wondering whether it would be possible to add a button function like this to CB Connect anyway? You mentioned the fact that it is possible to show a link button in profile edit, and it seems that CB Connect has the ability to currently generate different types of buttons in different locations, both for Sign In and also to Link profiles to accounts like Twitter and Facebook etc. Would it be possible to add a button option to show on user profiles instead of the "View Facebook (or other social network) Profile" ? Just a thought.

Thanks

Hi

So I got this to work perfectly for the field label "Facebook ID" just to check I was doing the substitution correctly, in the CB language plugin override, but no luck with the language key VIEW_FACEBOOK_PROFILE.

The problem is I ran a search on this key, and a general search on the word "Facebook" in the CB language plugin, and it couldn't find this key at all, just some other Facebook related stuff. I've used this override a lot since you introduced it and I've found it very reliable at searches for language keys, so I'm a bit stuck now.

Thanks
