Hey there,

I want to realize a Team Roster with the help of buddypress. This Team Roster should display custom fields which are only editable by admins.

The structure seems like:

Group Name 1

• Nickname: Nickname 1

Rank: Leader (custom field which should only be editable by admins)

• Nickname: Nickname 2

Rank: Member (custom field which should only be editable by admins)

Group Name 2

• Nickname: Nickname 3

Rank: Leader (custom field which should only be editable by admins)

• Nickname: Nickname 4

Rank: Member (custom field which should only be editable by admins)

and so on.

I figured out how to display the above structure without the custom field “Rank” with the following code:

<?php if ( bp_has_groups() ) : ?>
        <?php while ( bp_groups() ) : bp_the_group(); ?>
  		<?php if ( bp_group_has_members( 'group_id='.bp_get_group_id().'&exclude_admins_mods=false' ) ) : ?>
        <div class="row ">
        	<div class="span12">
            	<div class="infobox1">
                	<h3 class="m_title">
                    <?php bp_group_name() ?>
              		</h3>
                </div> <!-- end infobox -->
             </div> <!-- end span -->
          </div> <!-- end row -->
          <div class="row ">
          	<?php while ( bp_group_members() ) : bp_group_the_member(); ?>
            <div class="span3">
            	<div class="team_member">
                <a href="#" target="_blank" class="grayHover"><?php bp_group_member_avatar( 'type=full&width=75&height=75' ) ?></a>
                <h4><?php bp_member_name(); ?></h4>
                <h6>Clanleader</h6>
                	<div class="details">
                		<div class="desc">
                        <p>Max Mustermann <br />
                        Musterstadt</p>
                        </div> <!-- end description -->
                        <ul class="social-icons colored fixclear">
                        <li class="social-twitter"><a href="" target="_blank"></a></li>
                        <li class="social-facebook"><a href="" target="_blank"></a></li>
                        <li class="social-gplus"><a href="" target="_blank"></a></li>
                        <li class="social-mail"><a href="" target="_blank"></a></li>
                        </ul>
                     </div><!-- end details -->
                  </div><!-- end team_member -->
             </div><!-- end span -->
             <?php endwhile; ?>
             
             <?php else: ?>
           
            <div id="message" class="info">
              <p>This group has no members.</p>
            </div>
           
          	<?php endif;?>
		</div><!-- end row -->
        <?php endwhile; ?>
        <?php do_action( 'bp_after_groups_loop' ) ?>
 
		<?php else: ?>
         
            <div id="message" class="info">
                <p><?php _e( 'There were no groups found.', 'buddypress' ) ?></p>
            </div>
         
        <?php endif; ?>

However I got a problem with the custom field. I can’t find a possibility to say, that only Admins can edit specific custom fields of members in the buddypress core neither with a buddypress plugin. So I thought it’s maybe possible to create a custom field for the wordpress users which can only be edited by admins and can be displayed inside the bp_group_members-loop.

I’ve created this custom user field with the Plugin “Cimy User Extra Fields”. I know it is possible to show the custom user field with this code:

$value = get_cimyFieldValue(user_id, field_name);
echo cimy_uef_sanitize_content($value);

However I can’t figure out how I can get the ID of the buddypress member into the user_id. May you can help me with that?

Thanks for your help.

Mats
