Not a bug Inconsistent markup on account details fields

[RobinHood]

Affected version

2.2

Not really bug, but just a little inconsistency making it harder to layout the settings page at data-template="account_details"

We've got really detailed markup for targeting custom user fields on the account details page, which is great, like so:



But the core fields on the same page, aren't marked up, so it's not easy to target them without adding additional markup,

Are you referring to the data-field values?

It kind of goes with the suggestion I made regarding data-content-key values.

Lack of interest - Add data-content-key values to all content types

Currently only threads have a value passed into them for the data-content-key as can be seen here: That allows you to do stuff like this: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/display-a-notice-in-a-specific-thread.8197/ Other content types such as specific resouces, media gallery items...

Yep. Sort of ties into this suggestion aswell.

Found myself trying to target all the things the last few weeks, and on things like custom user fields and menu's, where things can swap around it's so useful to have the data-fields.

The bit you point to is specific to custom fields. Nothing else will automatically have it. That isn't really a bug, as we simply don't do that in generally (and we wouldn't really intend to). We do occasionally apply some extra identifiers to components that are dynamically generated (like custom fields and navigation items) as they are harder to more individually target. If you want to target a specific field on a specific page, we'd have to recommend making direct changes to expose the selector you want for that field.

Quite some time has passed...

Have you found a solution?
I'm struggling with this right now- trying to hide a few formRows from the account_details template...

Ok, that was quick
I just found this hack:

XF 2.2 - How is the z-index of editorrow in overlay mode set?

I have a custom addon where a user can click an edit link and it opens an overlay to edit that item like so: {{ phrase('edit') }} In the template that is opened as an overlay, I use...

@cmpe suggested adding a row-type to the xf element like this: rowtype="nameOfClass", which basically adds another class to the formRow which looks like:
formRow--nameOfClass

Mission accomplished
