Need a field author which display....

A field? Could you give more details, please. How does the user register on your site?

Some rough ideas and thoughts...

with Joomla core: - activate the new J25 User-Profile plugin, which offers some extra fields - There is also an interesting Author-Info-Box Plugin, which utilizes User-Profile fields - Maybe AIB can be modified to work on Cobalt pages OR called directly in Cobalt custom template?!

**Load and sync user-data into Cobalt fields:

**- you could load user-data with the powerful custom SQL parameter in some Cobalt fields!

**Load user data in custom template:

**- Maybe it makes sense to load the data in a Cobalt custom template http://docs.joomla.org/JUserHelper ::getProfile/1.6

$profile = JUserHelper::getProfile($userid);

echo $profile->profile['website'];

BTW, you might also use Cobalt itself as an extended profile storage ;-) Create a section "profiles" and a type "profile". Limit submission to 1 entry. Then you might relate other content to this profile.

yes but we could not show user's blog link, send a mail, ect

Sometimes Maik, I think you know Cobalt better than me :)

yes but we could not show user's blog link, send a mail, ect

i want options to dispay one or several author's section in this field as my blog, my home page, my shop, ect . i saw views homepage but it is not very easy for a list of blogs

I am completely lost here what you need Emilie :D

sorry it is not really clear, i have a section "blogs" in this section there is every post from every blog from each user. When i read a post at the bottom of article i have an are where there is : name of author, medals if it is a good contributor (i know i 'am dreaming ;) ), picture, and "go to his blog", go to his shop (there is a small list of every personal catagory from him) and others articles from this author

THis is not dream. It is all possible. You just described your way how it looks. So you need to make custom template. Because you want it at the bottom of the article. And you need some extra links there.

The only thing we miss now is autor karma or user rating. But that will be in Cobalt 8.

Ok thank you, before i used seblod 2 but i prefer test cobalt

lastest question how to build forum ? because with fields i think we can build good forum

You can build excellent forum! The key for forum building is templates that looks more intuitive as usually forums looks. Category index template, record list and record with comments.

ok and has cobalt forums template ?

That we do not have. But we plan to create special Cobalt Forum pack with will create section, categories, demo topics and install required templates.

But we will do it later next month.

ok great because i liked mighty resource forum features, my lastest question is now what is your road map for cobalt 7, not 8 because i know cobalt 8 will be a killer app :)

No rode map for 7. Just like it is now. We start integrations and section packs but without chnaging anything in Cobalt 7. New features inside Cobalt only in version 8 now.

Because if we continue to add features, we never stable. We always test new features. We want to cut and release stable version which will accept only new builds with bug fixes.

great if i start complex project now, i hope to move to cobalt 8 easily

and i hope to see cobalt 8 quickly ._. because some exciting feature will be in cobalt 8 and transition with seblod is not easy :D

Yes, update to Cobalt 8 will be easy and free.

just keep one eye on our news log

free is not a problem, i think you shoud sale this component (look jreview : expensive and basic)

We are selling it. We sell additional fields. And by the way we plan that forum pack will cost around $15

15 $ is good
