Group badges not showing

[phenomlab]

Despite badges being set to "Display Badge", these never seem to appear. Any ideas ? I've managed to get one or two to display, but none of the others I created and assigned to users appear. For example

And

Neither show.

Looks like its this one. https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-poll/blob/master/plugin.json#L42 Try disabling poll plugin and try again.

Interestingly, this "bug" seems to affect admins - normal users it seems to work ok

[PitaJ]

The badges shown on a user are selected on their profile page under "Group Title"

[phenomlab]

@pitaj Thanks, although it seems to be only possible to select one ?

For example, I want "admin" and "founder" but can only have one or the other appearing in posts.

[PitaJ]

@phenomlab you can select multiple by holding Ctrl/Cmd while clicking. It's just the built-in browser multiselect element.

[phenomlab]

@pitaj Yes, I know, but it doesn't work

Despite two being selected, only one is ever shown

[PitaJ]

@phenomlab it works here. Maybe it's a limitation of your theme. What theme are you using?

[phenomlab]

@pitaj It's the Persona theme

However, what IS odd is below

See how the first "group" is displayed with an <a href></a> but the one that should immediately follow it is empty ?

On checking after multiple group badge select using CTRL, saving, then reloading the form, only one is being displayed

Is this setting turned on in the ACP?

Also what is the value of groupTitle for the user having this problem?

Certainly is

Not sure where this is being set (database ?) but this is what I see for the ADMINISTRATORS group for example

It'll display any one of them, but only one, and not more

[baris]

The value is in the database key for that user, if the uid is 1 then it would be
db.objects.findOne({_key: "user:1"}).groupTitle if you are using mongodb

[phenomlab]

@baris

Group "Founder" is correct (it's one of the groups I am in), but I am also in the ADMINISTRATORS group, and if I select both groups, only one of them shows.

[PitaJ]

@phenomlab does it work with only admins? Does it work with Founders + a group besides admins?

[phenomlab]

@pitaj No, sadly. Seems to show one group only. Also tried with a non-admin user, and get the same issue.

[PitaJ]

So you select multiple groups, save your profile, then reload, and it only has one group selected?

[phenomlab]

@pitaj Exactly.

[phenomlab]

@PitaJ @baris any ideas ?

Thanks

[baris]

Nope, but from what you posted it seems there is an issue with saving the users selection into the database. When you select 2 groups and hit save it should show ["group1", "group2"] in the `groupTitle field.

Works fine on this forum as you can see from my group badges.

You would have to add some logging to see why admin selection is not saved maybe add some logging here to check the values https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/blob/master/src/user/profile.js#L223

@baris I found this earlier
https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/9496#issue-861621005

Is this related ? Seems like my exact issue and refined for the next release ?

Thanks

Can you try disabling various plugins?
