Changes to Resume Address field

Currently Address field in Resume is just a textbox.

Europass on the other hand has an Address field which is actually a composite field. It would be beneficial to try and implement this in Mahara as it would allow better import/export of Europass (and maybe other easier interoperability with other systems). It would be beneficial for users also as this would suggest them how to enter address data - in a way this would guide them.

The Address (composite) field in Europass consists of the folowing fields:

  • s: Street name and number
  • p: Country postal code prefix
  • z: Postal code
  • m: Municipality
  • c: Country

Of thoose fields only Country is mandatory. IMPORTANT: \n denotes a new line.

The Address ic composed from those basic fields, mentioned above and can be displayed in different formats:

  • s\nz m (c) - Default Address Format
  • s, z m (c) - Default Address Format for Organisations
  • s z m (c) - Address Format Variation
  • s z m c - Address Format Variation
  • s p-z m (c) - Address Format Variation
  • s p-z m c - Address Format Variation
  • s, p-z m (c) - Address Format for various countries, such as Sweden
  • s,m z c - Address Format for various countries, such as United Kingdom
  • s, z m c - Address Format for various countries, such as Ireland
  • s, p-z m (c) - Address Format for various countries, such as Slovenia
  • s, m, p-z (c) - Address Format for various countries, such as Latvia
  • s, p-z m (c) - Address Format for various countries, such as Lithuania
  • s, z m (c) - Address Format for various countries, such as Malta
