I am wondering if there is a way to comment/review and rate the user profile ? I was looking for the same solution for Drupal7 before, now, am wondering if there is anything new in backdrop here to do this. Thanks
@dd123 - As far as I know, you cannot add comments to user profiles. However, would it work to create a person content type and is linked via entity reference to the user account?
You could add whatever fields, rating and comments to the node and then use views to link them and display wherever you want.
I'm not doing exactly that, but I am doing similar as I need to have some people nodes that are not linked to users and there may also be some users that don't have a people node as they're not public facing.
Possibly with Fivestar for the rating portion (though I haven't tried it). You could try adding a "Fivestar rating" field on user accounts.
EDIT: @yorkshirepudding's idea of adding a node that is linked via entity reference so that you can include comments is a good one. Maybe you could configure Rules to create that node and link it automatically when a user is created (also not certain of that).
Hey there, and thank you for the response. As for sending the email, yes, I am using the email functionality of webform. I was wondering where I could find the component ID of the field? Or...
Implemented this and it's working in the one place I know I needed it (will keep an eye out to see if it's working everywhere). HOWEVER, as you suspected, it does NOT show the template...
Wow, this is amazing...I didn't expect such an indepth answer, but I really appreciate it. I'll give this a try today and let you know what turns out...
