Not sure if this is a location or bio bug, but i'll start it here. ;)

I'm building a site with bio and location. I want the location info to be visible via the views I'm constructing of my bio nodes, so I'm just location-enabling the bio node type, not using the location-provided "user locations" stuff. That much seems to work fine.

However, bio has a feature to move fields from the bio node edit form and stick them on the user registration form. Sadly, because location fields aren't CCK, bio doesn't know to copy these fields into the user registration form.

I could just hack this via form_alter and get it working, but I wanted to submit an issue about it first and see what the maintainers of both modules have to say about this, before I spend any more time on it (other than searching both queues for dups -- I didn't see anything related, but please let me know if I missed something).

Thanks!

I'm trying to do the same thing did you figure out a workaround?

No, I'm waiting to spend time on it until I hear from someone from the new location.module management on the best approach to investigate. ;) It's not really that important to my site, so it's not a high priority for me.

Well, I built a myspace app, and it launched... I've got users coming out my rear trying to set up profiles, but the location fields are only available if they go back to edit the node... I need to get it working pronto and I'm not really sure how to do that...

Thanks

Have you all looked at nodeprofile and how it handles things? Because it's showing up on registration using nodeprofile + location for me, so that might be a good starting point.

Nodeprofile puts the entire form there rather than letting you select individual fields, which is probably why it worked for you. Unfortunately, I can't get it to work for me using nodeprofile. The fact that you managed it makes me think I have something set wrong somewhere. Any tips?

Thanks,

Nevermind my question. I figured it out. You have to give anonymous users access to submit lat/long in order for the map to show up.

Am stuck with this as well

Does the Location have to be CCK or I have to assigned Location to uprofile nodetype?
