I have downloaded and installed the EasyBlog biography app for EasySocial. The app is enabled, but no bio field shows up in Profile Edit.

When I go to EasySocial > Profile Types > Custom fields, and insert the EasyBlog Biography field into my registration form I get this textbox saying:
"No theme file found for this event. You might be trying to display content in an event that do not need to display.: user/easyblog_biography/"

Hope you can help me get this working.

If not/Can you help me get rid of the "This author has not entered any biography yet" in EasyBlog?

I would like the choice to either have the biography field in EasySocial registration/profile edit, or (best) not have the "Authorname" has not set their biography yet in Blog Author box for each EasyBlog post.

Would be nice to have a link to profile edit, when its the blog author viewing his own blog post. Like this. "Tim Olson has not set their biography yet. Click here to set your biography". Last click here... only appearing when blog post viewed by blog author = Tim Olson.
It okay, sorry for confusing in my previous reply, I think you would like turn off all the author info from your blog entry page, because I noticed you set all "hide" from your backend > Easyblog > setting > layout > post option > Author section (check my screenshot below.)

By the way, I already help you enabled back and left "show biography" set to hide, it work fine as you expected now.
Please have a check.

Hello Torgrim,

Can you try to download the attached zip file and install it? If still doesn't work, you can provide us your backend and FTP access so we can have a better look here.

If not/Can you help me get rid of the "This author has not entered any biography yet" in EasyBlog?
- Yes, it can be removed.

Click here to set your biography". Last click here... only appearing when blog post viewed by blog author = Tim Olson.
- Good suggestion. You can write it in our Voices page here: http://www.stackideas.com/voices/easyblog and our developers will get back to you.

Thank you for your answer Nik.
Downloaded the attachment, and installed (EasySocial > Applications > Install). Same error, bibliography field does not show up when registering/editing profile with EasySocial.

I will post UserVoice about this, for now (if you can not fix it), I would just like to get rid of the "'Authorname' has not set their biography yet" on all my EasyBlog blog posts.
Please if you do any hard-coded changes give me the filenames, path and code changes, as I need to log this (in case of future update to EasyBlog/EasySocial/EasyDiscuss/Komento overwriting changes).

Please see site details below.

Hey Torgrim,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. When I try to access your site now, I am getting a redirect loop error message, http://screencast.com/t/EdPMtsij9oj

Do you think that you can get all of these issues sorted out before sending us with these data?

However, since the FTP worked, I have patched these custom fields on the site to work with EasyBlog 5.

Sorry for this. I do not know the cause for this, but seems like a Firefox problem. Please use other netbrowser, or try http://www.bryggeriet.com/no/ instead of http://www.bryggeriet.com.

And sorry, I still can not add the "EasyBlog Biography" custom field to the EasySocial profile form. I still get the "No them file found for this event. You might be trying to add content in an event that do not display: user/easyblog_biography".

Can you please help with removing the "Forename Surename has not set their biography yet " in the "About author" section of my blog posts? Is there not a setting for this? We are using EasySocial, so we do not need this (they just click the authorname/profile link to get more information about author).

I have applied this fix in your site, it should work fine now.

Yes, it seems like I am still can't access in your frontend.
To disable this, you can access backend > Easyblog > setting > layout > post layout > show biography - NO .
Hope this helps.

Thank you Arlex! The EasyBlog Biography custom field now works in EasySocial!

"

"

Frontend. Please use other browser than Firefox, or go to http://www.bryggeriet.com/no (not http://www.bryggeriet.com).
I have disabled/choses "Hide" for "Show biography", but still it shows. Guess this is because I am using menu item, ref. "These are the options that would be inherited by posts in this category if there is no menu item created.". But there is no option for this when I choose Menu > Main (Norwegian) > Blogger?

Hope you can help.

Hey Torgrim,

You're welcome.

Can you give it a check now, it seems work fine now.

I suspect that was cache issues.

Sorry Arlex, no, this is not the way I want it...

Now the test blog posts have no "About author" section. I want the "About author" section, but I do not want "... has not set their biography".

And strangely enough the blog post:
http://www.bryggeriet.com/no/blogg/entry/diverse/congratulations-you-have-successfully-installed-easyblog.html
still has the "About author" section - and the "...has not set their biography" section.

PS: Do I need to now anything about the edits you have done to my files, or will this fix be included in next update of EasyBlog?
