Hello,

I'm new french user of Drupal since one month.
I've a question about profile module, and fields personalisation.

I would like to complete user profile with a field list, this field permit him to select a preference of Sport for example.
But, the list of sport is in a XML file, and I would like to import this file in the field list of profile config.

Can I add a field like list value, with value from external XML file, like CCK Field permit us (with PHP code and simplexmlload function), but I can't add CCK Field in profil module.

Thanks you for your help.

Thank you for this information.

I've just tested this module and it's true that works.

But I've a question, is it possible to delete or not appear the description field that the content type Profile created by default ?
I would like to create a Profile content type without field to begin, and add only CCK field on this content type.

I would like my profile form like :
- no title
- no description
- address
- my list of choice with XML file
- two other list
- phone number

Is it possible to do ?

Thank you for response. (and your quickly last response)

hi

you can remove body and title using form_alter hook ,

you have to create module and thne use form alter hook to alter.

Oh yes, I understand now, I was sure this field was required.
Thank you for your help.

I've begun to do my profile form with content type and CCK, it's very easy to use, but my profile CSV export module don't permit me to choice any field CCK field, is there a solution whith an other export module or I have to develop a new module to export my users ?

I'll got the same problem with birthday module !

Hello,

I'm trying node import module, but it's an import module, but not export ?
And if an export node module exist, could I use it for export Profile node type + profile Email information ?

Thanks.
