CMSDesk -> Friends -> Nickname pulling in custom field
Hello,

I have run into a strange situation where the UserNickName field in CMSDesk->Users->MyUser->Friends is returning a custom field instead of the proper UserNickName field from UserSettings. I have checked the data and it is proper.

I tried to run down how that unigrid was being filled which led me to the file CMSModules\Friends\Controls\FriendsList.xml and the line
<objecttype name="community.friendlist" columns = "FriendID,UserName,UserNickname,FullName,FriendComment,FriendApprovedWhen" />


From the developer's guide, unigrid xml objectypes should be defined in CMS_Class. community.friendlist is not found in that table.

I'd like some pointers or insight into my particular issues and where the community.friendlist object is defined. I'm running v6.0.4377

Thank you

Hi,

Could you please try to refresh views tables? You can do so in the Site manager -> Development -> System tables -> Views -> click the Refresh all views button.

Best regards,

That did the trick. Thank you so much. I am still curious where that friendslist class is defined, but my problem is solved!

Hi,

I am glad it helped. Anyway, the community.friendlist is a special virtual object that does not have a physical SQL table.
