Ok, now the settings are showing, I can see what this module is trying to do. Problem is that I get no fields in the "Contact field" drop down when trying to create a mapping. Where an how can these fields be created? Is there supposed to be a "Contact" content type? I tried creating one manually, but that didn't give me any joy, maybe the name is wrong.

A related minor bug is that it's possible to create a mapping from the "Select One" item in the contact field drop-down, and once created, it's impossible to delete (presumably because it's not a real field). Need some checking there.

Ignore me, I RTFM. For anyone else, read the "README.txt", and import the .CCK file into a NEW content type (ie. "create"). Perhaps it would be good to install this content type on module install?

The bug still stands though..

In the next release of the code, i will be creating the CCK node automatically so that you do not have to import it via the Content Import module. This module has a lot of different updates going into it since it was originally written internally purely to function with the WebMail Plus module but then it was gradually expanded to be more.

I will fix that so you cannot create the select one mapping, the mapping is too the content profile module so that if a field does not have any information in the contact manager cck type but does in the content profile for the user then on node_view you will see the value for that field be displayed as though it were in the contact manager node.

ok for those of us messing around with this mod, how do we delete a profile field mapping to the 'select one' option? when I hit delete I get this error:
Invalid mapping received

where is that info stored so I can manually delete it?

Issue regarding being able too create the field mapping for the "Select One" is not fixed.

This value is saved in the variable named "contact_manager_field_mappings" so if you need to reset it you can do variable_del('contact_manager_field_mappings') and that will remove all traces of it from the system and you can restart again.
