Can people “opt out” of displaying their flag?

Can people “opt out” of displaying their flag?

They can if you allow it. Allowing members to opt out is an option in the add-on.



If it's allowed, the option appears in their privacy options...

Did you set the add-on options?

Can you see your own flag?

 

[Nirjonadda]

Did you set the add-on options?

Yes.

Can you see your own flag?

No.

 

[Snog]

OK, do you have any errors in the admin area?

Can you see your flag using the default XF style?

Do you have BC Math for PHP installed and configured for PHP to run it?

No error log.

Can you see your flag using the default XF style?

No

Do you have BC Math for PHP installed and configured for PHP to run it?

Yes, This setting worked in xf1

 

[Snog]

If you can't see it in the default style, then there may be another add-on or template change interfering with it.

If you want me to look at it, give me temporary admin access. Send the info by PC.

For everyone's benefit, the main problem above was the XF 1 data/countryflags files were deleted and an UPGRADE was run.

If you are upgrading, the XF 1 data/countryflags files must be present on your server. The XF 2 version uses those files and does not re-install them during an upgrade.

If you do NOT have the XF 1 data/countryflags files on your server and the XF 1 version shows as being a Legacy add-on in XF 2, uninstall it BEFORE uploading the XF 2 version files to your server. That will force a re-install of the data files. You will not lose any data from the database if you do this. The database will still have all of the data from the XF 1 version and it will be used by the XF 2 version.

You star. I’ve wanted this for v2 after members moaning about it after the upgrade

Instead of flags, I am just seeing a box with question mark. If I hover over that, I see "unknown"

I did have the version 1 working fine on the same forum, but uninstalled version 1 prior to installing xf2

If it's a white box with a ?, that means that either the country is unknown for that user or the mmdb database file doesn't exist in data/countryflags. If your flag or some flags are showing properly, then it just means the user with the ? hasn't logged in since the add-on was installed so their country is unknown.

If the file doesn't exist, try running the database update cron task. If it doesn't get downloaded then there is either a problem with Curl or the permissions for the data/countryflags folder.

How do you update it so it updates the current registered users before the install? Is it the cron entry called 'Update MaxMind'? Because I did run it and majority still have '?' on there name. It does work for me though and someone who just registered after the install so I know the add-on works fine. am i missing something here? Thank you for the add-on BTW.

seem her just a flag with ?

If it's a white box with a ?, that means that either the country is unknown for that user or the mmdb database file doesn't exist in data/countryflags.

When unzipped, the addon /upload/folder does not conatain anything for /data/, only an src folder.

Did you follow the rest of the post?

It isn't in the upload folder, it gets created after the install. But run a cron entry like the guy said above and check in data of your root directory.

Ah, I didn't know that. Yes, the folder is there in /data/ but I didn't know it would just show question marks until people log in. Is there any way to force the flags even for members who are not logged in? (but do have IP addresses logged)
