loadpostion into cb list html field was created by huntrdog
Hello,

I'm able to use loadposition to load a module into cb profile page using custom html as found here:  www.joomlapolis.com/forum/professional-members-support/247845-integrate-the-module-into-cb#342908

If possible, can you walk me through loading a module (joomla menu, specifically) into the html field that is published above lists?

Thank you!

into the html field that is published above lists?

You mean in the list description? It's a bit wonky, but you'd have to do that with a Custom HTML field substituted into the list description. The list description supports substitutions, but doesn't support content plugins directly.

Thank you for the speedy reply! Can you provide the field substitution syntax for rendering a Custom HTML field inside a List Description? For example, if my field name is cb_fooddrinklpmenu, what exactly should be placed in the List Description?

Recommend reading through the below tutorial on how to use substitutions.

www.joomlapolis.com/documentation/127-community-builder/279-tutorials/18353-using-substitutions-throughout-cb

The entire tutorial is relevant anywhere substitutions are supported.

I've been testing the List Description field of a Community Builder List hoping to publish a joomla module inside. Plain HTML entered directly into the Description field renders correctly. However, none of the following are processed:

{loadposition cb-food-drink-lp-menu}
{loadmoduleid 153}
[cb:usertab tab="30" /]
[cb:userposition position="not_on_profile_1" /]

These same module tags and CB substitutions work correctly on profile pages. My question is:Is the CB List Description field able to process CB substitutions and/or Joomla content plugins? If so, is there a setting that enables this? (I have "Prepare content using CMS Content plugins" enabled on the field).

If not, what is the supported method for displaying reusable content (such as a Joomla menu module or CB tab content) inside a CB List Description?

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

{loadposition cb-food-drink-lp-menu}
{loadmoduleid 153}

Those will not work. List descriptions do not process content plugins.

[cb:usertab tab="30" /]
[cb:userposition position="not_on_profile_1" /]

Those should work, but they're going to substitute in from the viewing user. So if you're not logged in it'll be from guest profile. So depending on your settings it may not substitute in anything at all. Try just substituting in your Custom HTML field. Example as follows.

[FIELD_NAME]
[cb:userfield field="FIELD_NAME" /]
