Does Profile Data Move Along With Fields?

I’m considering moving some x-profile fields into the base, but wonder if the field data will move as well. If that’s not possible, can I export that data?

Alternatively, can someone provide example code how to display profile fields beyond the simple base categories? (I’d like to offer the same functionality as the “edit profile” screen, where all members can select links in the status bar.)

I’m using the latest trunk and the default theme.

Have a look at this Codex article.

As a general piece of advice, this is not specifically for the xprofile component, make sure that you check the codebase in the version of trunk that you’re using as there have been a number of changes to functions–some have been renamed, others deprecated, and new ones created. So it is possible that some of the Codex articles on BP loops may be slightly out of date.

This loop, which is part of the profile, seems to indicate (in pseudo-code) the following is happening: if there is a group, display the group name and then the group field contents. I still don’t see why all of my groups – but just base – are displayed.
