Can't edit select property on user profile, is this a bug?
Permalink
Hi!
I have a bunch of attributes for every user and I've set it up so users can edit their profiles and the attributes. Every attribute works, except for one instance of a select attribute. I have another select attribute that works, but one doesn't work. The difference is that the one that doesn't work is set to allow users to add to the list. I suspect this somehow causes the function to break.
When registering, everything works as expected. But when editing the profile, users can only remove previously selected tags, but can't add new tags to the attribute. Can anyone please confirm this?
To reproduce: Add a select attribute to all users and set it so that users can add their own tags. Enable user profiles. Go to a user profile and click the Edit link in the sidebar. On the select attribute, you won't be able to type in the name of tags you want to select.

There is an option when setting up a select attribute about allowing users to add tags.
I know there is. That option is set on one of my select attributes, but disabled on the other. Now, when editing a user profile, there is no possible way to add new tags to the select attributes on which I enabled the option for users to add their own tags. The only thing users can do is delete already entered tags, but they can't add more tags, be it existing or new ones.
On the select attribute where I've disabled the options so users can't add their own tags, everything becomes checkboxes that user can check or uncheck. That part works as expected.
Please see my updated question on how to reproduce this error.

I just tested and I can't reproduce your problem. On a profile I can add to a select/tags attribute.
Thanks for trying to reproduce it JohntheFish. Strange enough, it seems to work now, although I've made no changes. Wierd..
