Onboarding/profile completion assistant to support all types of profile fields.

We are using "manager" and "deputy" profile fields to link to other users (field type "User select").
Furthermore we have a profile field for "birthday" and "joined" (first working day with the company) of the type "Date input".
Unfortunately both field types are currently not supported by the onboarding / profile completion assistant.

The new date field type is available in Linchpin Suite 5.0 and Linchpin Essentials 2.0 and can be included in Linchpin Onboarding and Linchpin Pings respectively. :)

A quick update: The new date field type is in the works and will be finished soon, so it will be available with the next Feature-Release of LUP / the Suite, expected for end of April/start of May. This also includes support of this field for Pings and Onboarding, as well as support within the mobile app.

There's news on this one! Fields of the type "User select" are available for Onboarding and Pings with Linchpin Suite 3.4, as are some other profile fields that haven't been supported before.
Date fields as of yet are not supported, but that's because first we need to overhaul the Date field itself. But we're in the process of doing exactly that, so I'll change the status of this to "in Progress".

We'd really appreciate that, too. Right now the assistant is of no use for us because we cannot add those fields (especially the "joined" field, as we use a customized user macro on our dashboard where we filter with the "joined" field to present all recently joined colleagues).
I really hope for this!

Yes, that's definitely something we want to do. As this app is one of the oldest parts of the Linchpin Suite, there's some refactoring work to do for many of the profile fields; that's why we didn't support all the fields right from the start. But we'll get there :)
