Topic was moved from Bug reports and troubleshooting.

I’m having I think the same issue. It works on desktop version in the “Newsfeed” but in the ‘Newsfeed mobile version  its showing the script code {$userName}…see my attached pic. Any help on this would be very thankful.

First of all you should not redefine the $field variable. The code should look the following way:

        $field = new Textarea('status');
        $field->setHasInvitation(true);
        $displayName = BOL_UserService::getInstance()->getDisplayName(OW::getUser()->getId());
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation', array('userName' => $displayName)));
        $this->addElement($field);
 

The string you are talking about is hardcoded in the mobile newsfeed template, therefore you need to pass the $displayName variable to it:

/newsfeed/mobile/views/components/update_status.html

To make this work for the mobile you should perform the following steps:

1. Go to /newsfeed/mobile/components/update_status.php and add the following strings onto the 44, 45 lines:

        $displayName = BOL_UserService::getInstance()->getDisplayName(OW::getUser()->getId());
        $this->assign('displayName', $displayName);

2. Go to /newsfeed/mobile/components/update_status.php and add the following strings onto the 102, 103 lines:

        $displayName = BOL_UserService::getInstance()->getDisplayName(OW::getUser()->getId());
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation', array('userName' => $displayName)));

3. Go to /newsfeed/mobile/views/components/update_status.html file and add the userName=$displayName variable to the text string. It should look the following way:

 <textarea class="owm_invitation">{text key="newsfeed+status_field_invintation" userName=$displayName}</textarea>

Yesss you make my day :)))

I disable mobile version for now…gonna wait for more improvements before enable it again…but thanks for the input and code information Daisy!

I tried this on 1.72 and no matter what i do ( uppercase, lowercase, mixed, etc ) all I get is the variable name and no actual display name.  The same is true with the desktop version ( using the other code, of course ).

To make this work for 1.7.2 version, you should perform the following steps:

1. Go to /newsfeed/mobile/components/update_status.php file, search for the following strings:

$field = new Textarea('status');
        $field->setHasInvitation(true);
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation') );
        $this->addElement($field);

 and add the following strings onto the 110, 111 lines:

        $displayName = BOL_UserService::getInstance()->getDisplayName(OW::getUser()->getId());
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation', array('userName' => $displayName)));

2. Go to /ow_plugins/newsfeed/components/update_status.php file, search for the following strings:

$field = new Textarea('status');
        $field->setHasInvitation(true);
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation') );
        $this->addElement($field);

 and add the following strings onto the 204, 205 lines:

        $displayName = BOL_UserService::getInstance()->getDisplayName(OW::getUser()->getId());
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation', array('userName' => $displayName)));


3. Go to /newsfeed/mobile/views/components/update_status.html file and add the userName=$displayName variable to the text string. It should look the following way:

 <textarea class="owm_invitation">{text key="newsfeed+status_field_invintation" userName=$displayName}</textarea>

Its not work in the 1.8 moblile?

i have:

/ow_plugins/newsfeed/components

$field = new Textarea('status');
        $field->setHasInvitation(true);
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation') );
        $this->addElement($field);
        $displayName =     BOL_UserService::getInstance()->getDisplayName(OW::getUser()->getId());
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation', array('userName' => $displayName)));

ow_plugins/newsfeed/mobile/components

        $field = new Textarea('status');
        $field->setHasInvitation(true);
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation') );
        $this->addElement($field);
        $displayName = BOL_UserService::getInstance()->getDisplayName(OW::getUser()->getId());
        $field->setInvitation( OW::getLanguage()->text('newsfeed', 'status_field_invintation', array('userName' => $displayName)));


ow_plugins/newsfeed/mobile/views/components

<div class="owm_newsfeed_status_update owm_bg_color_2 clearfix" id="newsfeed-status-form-inv">
    <span class="owm_newsfeed_status_update_add_icon"></span>
     <textarea class="owm_invitation">{text key="newsfeed+status_field_invintation" userName=$displayName}</textarea>

Works fine on the website but not on the moblie version
