Thanks i will look in to it more next day, the reason why i won’t use the plugin.

I want to give users the possibility to link themselves to a category.

Lets say i am building a marketplace.

I want the people that sell cosmetic products to be link to the category: cosmetics.

I thought to do it one step at the time and first to figure out how to save and display data from a input field.

Hi Boone,

Thanks for the reply, i got a bit further by changing

add_action( ’show_user_profile’, ‘user_show_define_category’ );
add_action( ‘edit_user_profile’, ‘user_show_define_category’ );

into

add_action( ‘bp_after_profile_loop_content’, ‘user_show_define_category’ );
add_action( ‘bp_after_profile_field_content’, ‘user_show_define_category’ );

Now it shows up well on the user frontend profile.

I can’t seem to find the correct way for updating

Do you have a clue what hook to use for personal_options_update and edit_user_profile_update?

add_action( ‘personal_options_update’, ‘user_save_define_category’ );
add_action( ‘edit_user_profile_update’, ‘user_save_define_category’ );

Would be great if someone can give me a head up!
