Yes but doesn't work.

Thank you.

Why have you choosen for free text instead of a single selection menu?

Why? If I use selection men? I don't have to insert datatype?

<datatype>free</datatype>

What datatype should I enter?

@All: Thank you for your support :up:

Don't go editing the XML, just create a new profile field and select single selection menu as type.

Nothing. If I create this field

  <setting varname="mytranslator_position2" displayorder="5">
    <optioncode>select:piped
      left|Left
      right|Right
      center|Center
    </optioncode>
    <defaultvalue>center</defaultvalue>
  </setting>

Doesn't work. Uhm....

Sorry my previous reply was about Profile Fields, not vB Options.

I just tested it with the following and had no problems:

Option code:

select:piped
left|Left
right|Right
center|Center

Default: center

All other fields left at default (exept title and description etc..).

For everything else works. Only this is just wrong.

Could be a template's cache issue?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Doubt that. If anything then i suspect a modification is causing this.

I try to use this code

  <setting varname="myt_position" displayorder="14">
    <datatype>free</datatype>
    <optioncode>select:piped
      0|Left
      1|Right
      2|Center</optioncode>
    <defaultvalue>2</defaultvalue>
  </setting>

and It works. But... why this code works and the old code doesn't work?

What are the difference between

left|Left
right|Right
center|Center

and

0|Left
1|Right
2|Center

Perhaps select: piped functions only if the first value is numeric and the second is an attribute?

Uhm.... This is a mystery ...

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Both should work.
