I really like this mod...

however, whenever I click one of the profile 'tags' it returns 1325 members - regardless of whether there is a match or not.

For example, here is the link that is produced:

http://www.domain.com/forums/memberl...&field3=travel

No matter what field 3 contains (or any other field for that matter), it results in 1325 members being returned (out of over 14,000).

It appears to have installed correctly, but doesn't appear to be working as designed - at least for me.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

Great, I've been looking for it ever since I dropped vsinteractive profiles - this one does the job for me.

Installed.

Thank you so much for this yet another leapfrog towards a community, at the cost of a single-step and painless installation.

Nominated, Voted, Installed with gratitude.

However: multi-line fields are not being analyzed for matches, and this is only a week after I converted most single-line text into text-area in order to encourage our members to be more expressive and verbose on their profile page, which is another necessity of successful social networks.

Also: In response to the German bit about different writing variations, maybe you can use the translation feature to accomplish just that, i.e. "forum", "forums", and "Foorumi" will become one, as "astrology", "astrologic", "astrological", "astro", etc.

Thank you so much again for this great implementation of a must-have functionality.

[Subah]

Great idea thanks

[VargTimmen]

Great Mod, but nearly every Profilefield is linked, but the interests not. Fix?

Same here. What it is doing is giving you the matches and all null fields.

Thanks again!
