ggppdk its working! Im stupid and im sorry for bothering :oops: :oops:

My mistake is - i change template in Types, not in category i wish :oops:

Its working perfectly! Thanks a lot again!

EDIT: Code for link Author to his profil in Community Builder is:

Code:

<!-- BOF item fields -->
<?php foreach ($columns as $name => $label) : ?>

   <?php
   $link='';
   $link_title='';
   if ($name=='created_by') {
      $query = "SELECT id FROM #__comprofiler WHERE user_id=". $item->created_by;
      $db = & JFactory::getDBO();
      $db->setQuery($query);
      $contact_id = $db->loadResult();
      if ($contact_id) {
         $link = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user='.$contact_id);
         $link_title = JText::_('Contact Details');
      }
   }
   ?>
   
   <td>
      <?php echo ($link) ? "<a href='$link' alt=='$link_title'>" : ""; ?>
      <?php echo isset($item->positions['table']->{$name}->display) ? $item->positions['table']->{$name}->display : ''; ?>
      <?php echo ($link) ? "" : ""; ?>

Your code will work but:

You don't need to make query for contact id for the community builder because the ids are the same so the following code will first try the get link
1. The Community Builder User Profile
2. and then the Standard Joomla Contact Details
(if CB component does not exist)

So you can use this code:

Code:

<!-- BOF item fields -->
<?php foreach ($columns as $name => $label) : ?>

	<?php
	$link='';
	$link_title='';
	if ($name=='created_by') {
		// FIRST TRY community builder
		if ($mainframe->getParams('com_comprofiler')) {
			$link = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userprofile&user='.$item->created_by);
			$link_title = JText::_('Author Profile');
		}
		
		// SECOND TRY standard Joomla Contact Details
		else
		{
			$query = "SELECT id FROM #__contact_details WHERE user_id=". $item->created_by;
			$db = & JFactory::getDBO();
			$db->setQuery($query);
			$contact_id = $db->loadResult();
			if ($contact_id) {
				$link = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_contact&view=contact&id='.$contact_id);
				$link_title = JText::_('Contact Details');
			}
		}
	}
	?>
	
	<td>
		<?php echo ($link) ? "<a href='$link' alt=='$link_title'>" : ""; ?>
		<?php echo isset($item->positions['table']->{$name}->display) ? $item->positions['table']->{$name}->display : ''; ?>
		<?php echo ($link) ? "" : ""; ?>
	</td>
	
<?php endforeach; ?>
<!-- EOF item fields -->

One more question - can this be done directly in the Field, not on current template?

I mean in "Core.php"?

I ask for this, because will use 10-20 different templates in one site

Yes, it can be done by adding one more parameter to FLEXIcontent --core-- field plugin that creates the all core fields.

The other way do this, would be to create a new field, which would allows to easily add more options to it such as creating links to other stuff too ...

I will make a new enhancement issue in the BUG Tracker for v1.5.7 ...

If you want to hack the core.php file inside the flexicontent plugins folder it should be easy to but your changes will be overwritten next time you upgrade.
