I would add new input on the "my accout" page, in K2 ofc. I added new column in mysql named "fb" with settings like in "url".

Next I added code in the profile.php like this:
And it works, I checkec and link which I pasted in this field shows in datebase.

Now, how can I show that link in another places? I tried on the user's page. But this is not working.

For now I want in order to make it works, but later I'll have to add something like:but I have to define somewhere value 'userFB' right?

In general, like you for sure noticed, I want to give authors possibility to paste their facebook page, which will appear under his name on the article page, or in other places.

I hope you can help me, I'm stuck :D
Best.

Hi,

Why didn't you use the User Extended Fields plugin? www.joomlaworks.net/extensions/free/item/26-user-extended-fields-for-k2

Hi,

I didn't know that extension. I'll try it in a moment. This looks like something what I need. Thanks a lot :))

Looks fine on the users page, but what should I do if I want to show this on the item's page too?? This plugin have these dark icons, not these in color on the right corner.

authors page -> ideafortoday.com/all/workout/author/330-mikolajbaczynski
items page -> ideafortoday.com/all/date/visit-the-amusement-park

The funniest thing is, yesterday I did it and everything worked fine. I just copied code below from user.php and paste to item.php
But now I checked and icons shows only when I'm loged in. Any ideas? :))

Did you use overrides, or did you edit directly K2's templates?

I edited K2 directly, I know I should use overrides but I didn't know that earlier. Is it very important to use overrides? I can fix this.
You mean if I override this file, not edit it directly, social icons will show on the item's page?

it is easier to determine if it is a bug and not an error in the overrides.
Finally if you do not override you will lose your changes when you override.

ANyway, maybe someone has an idea how to fix this? :)

Did you move your edits to the overrides?

Furtermore the item.php already contains the code show data from user plugins.

As for the styling the changes can be applied to your template's stylesheet.

Thanks Krikor. I deleted code which I added before and replaced it by

and later remove this code from default location in the file, to not double this.
