Hi there ppl! I tried, but came with two simple questions... Any help would be great ;D

First things first:
I'm trying to display the age of a person in DB, but there's no column (so the result is only in the View) and got no clue how to do it.. I can show data from the pre-defined columns, but not caulculating queries. Please someone tells me?

Second:
A minor one... I check the "try to republish" values after an error (it's for the CF), but it only republished the *required fields*, not the non-required... This is more rememberance for the user who is registering in the BD in that section...



Thanks for even reading this! Hope it serves for ppl in the same situation.

Hi Aluizojr,

What information do you have to calculate the age from?

I've never seen that problem with Republish before :-( Please post a link to the form so we can take a quick look.

Oh hi there Bob! 🙂

I have a birthday field which is Date type (Y/M/D).
Ok, in my database there's no specific column to record a user's age (because it updates every year for each user), I just have the birthday column.
So, what I need is to display that person's age along with other data, using a PHP function or something like that... so what would be in the "body" text area of CC:

<div>
Name: {name}
Age: {age} <!-- could be like that or pure PHP expression -->
Phone Number: {phone_number}
.
.
.
</div>

- please note that I'm using divs to display boxes with each user's data, also there's more variables and in portuguese. But as we know, they just need the "{}" to display... 🙄

////////////////
About the other problem (republish) it seems that's a bug with my Joomla! instalation, so I'll solve this later Sir. I'd checked the source but similar required field types have different behaviors once republished...😑

But thanks again Bob!
