Radio field with multi selection for search

Hello,
I’m with BP 2.2.3.1 and WP 4.2.2
I have a xprofile radio field that is used to define the gender of the member (male, female or couple). So, only possibility for this is to use a radio field as only one option is permitted per member.
Now, I need to make search and here, this field should be searchable on several options if needed (ie : male + female).
Is there a way to have this functionnality (radio for member profile and multicheckboxes for search ?)
Thanks
Pat

See if this can help you:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/men-woman-couple/

Also some topics about multi search criteria, like this one
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/multiple-search_terms-displays-nothing/

Note also that xprofile fields values are clickable by default. This let users get a list of members who entered same value.

Field name > Gender, when male is clicked you get all males list.

For more detailed result, you have to buid your own solution or to use a dedicated plugin. See

Hi Dan,
Thanks for your quick return.
I have checked the different links you indicated, but not found any answer to my specific question.
The issue there is I need a radio field from the beggining in order the new members to have a unique possible choice on this field. That’s why I choose the radio field. Now, I need to make search on all potential options (I’m using the BP profile search plugin until now).
Thanks again
Pat
