[#4822] Forums plugin and Kunena fields mapping

Hello, I'm running CB 2.0.2 - J 2.5.27 - Kunena 3.0.6 - Php 5.4.16

I've successfully mapped a new text field to Kunena for the forum signature of my users and it is displaying properly on the forum, but if I try to map other fields like skype, gender, custom text I don't see them on the forum underneath the avatar.

Before the upgrade I was using the old forum integration that now has been discontinued, and it was working fine.

Any idea?

The mapping just pushes the values to Kunenas user database table for that user. Check _kunena_users to confirm the values have been pushed. Whether Kunena displays them or not is entirely up to Kunena, but believe some of them you need to enable the display for. However, if you are overriding the sidebar then they likely won't display as that's normally where Kunena would display them.

Thank you Kyle, no I'm not overriding the sidebar and by checking the database I see that some values have been pushed and others haven't.
For sure I can't map the PersonalText field (and that's the only one that I really need, I tried with a text field, drop down field, radio button, but no success) as it doesn't appear on the sidebar, but if I manually type some text in the database personaltext rows it does work properly by displaying on the sidebar, underneath the avatar.

I wonder if that's due to a misconfiguration on my website or it's a CB Forums issue.

Can you map a personaltext field on your testing environment?

Was able to confirm your issue. Please see the below quickfix.

FORM: TO:
It's due to personaltext not properly mapping to Kunenas personalText. Once the quickfix is applied you'll need to re-save your profile for it to map the field value over.
