Hello

the changes were made to "Joomla profile" field
which is renamed to "User profile" field

but they were not included in this 3.3.1.
they work but need they need cleanup

we have links to Community builder and Jomsocial profiles
for current user (item's author) or of a specific user selected in item form (configuration in the plugin)

> - regarding Author's Items (more by this author) language association not working (redirected to 404 error page)

Yes, but this was never working, i mean it was not working in previous version either, we need to fix it, just it was considered not so important and was neglected


> - in frontend the edit button doesn’t display anymore once a item was edited

i see the issue, i have made a fix for next release


> and i lose I lose the alphabetical order in each drop-down menu in my submission form

do you mean select fields ?

- the select fields display options in the order that you entered them in configuration,
it is not a bug

Hello

1. about "User profile" field will include the updated field in 3.3.2

Any release of 3.3.1.x will have only bug fixes
But since we have a branch with this, you can have it earlier, but you will have to install a version that will be a little less tested

2. about ordering in flexicontent custom fields: (unless you meant something else)
select
selectmultiple
checkbox
checkboximage
radio
radioimage

the ordering was always the order that you have added them in field configuration
this has not changed, if you need them alphabetically you can reorder them yourself in field's configuration via drag and drop
if the values come from an SQL query, then use an ORDER-BY clause

Hello,

this new (beta) field seems to work fine in my testing website, thank you!

after upgrading to FLEXIcontent 3.3.1.5 doesn't contain "User (Contact, Community Builder, JomSocial)" field.

when do you release the stable release of this?

Hello

3.3.1.N will only contain bug-fixes

so this new feature will be in
3.3.2.0
and then any 3.3.2.N will also only contain bug-fixes
