Email listed as homepage in PP: malformed url

Alfa1 · December 21st, 2010, 07:53 PM

on the Photopost profile of one of my members, the homepage field shows the member his email address. I have no clue how this has happened. In vbulletin the homepage field is empty.

It gets weirder as the email address is malformed:
http://www.my-forum.com/photopost/name@comcast.net

So google webmaster tools has this listed as a crawl error.
I can not find how or where to correct / remove this.

The member can edit his profile using the edit profile link on the photopost profile when he views his profile. Thats how the editing is done. The user would have had to enter this information.

The autoparsing of links on your site, rewrote my example. Im not sure if you caught that.
I have fixed it now.

How can I edit this?

The member would have to edit his photopost profile. He would have had to put an email address there

The ability to edit photopost user info is very limited when integrating with a forum. If this was a standalone I would tell you to use the edit users link in admin to edit the user but your not using a standalone. So other than him changing his incorrect info you need to remove it from the database pp_users table.

From what I see in our code we are not auto parsing anything. The homepage should simply be displayed based on what is entered in the actual website field in the pp_users table so that result has to be in there.
