Hello,

How can I link fields in profile/registration?

For example:
If I chose data A in field 1 then field 2 needs to be filled.
If I chose data B in field 2 then field 3 must be filled with only limited selection of data (so the data that can be filled in field 3 is controlled by the selected data in field 2).

Thanks

This will most likely have to be done on the frontend with javascript.

Brush up on your jQuery! Look up “jquery conditional form fields” on Google.

Hmm I see, what you mean by to be done on the frontend is by editing the source code right?

I think this feature have been requested by others also and I think this is pretty basic functionality.
Hope this feature will be integrate to buddypress in the near future.

It’s not entirely clear how you would integrate this into BuddyPress itself, since every installation will have different “links” between profile fields. What kind of interface would be used to allow site admins to dictate such dependencies? If anyone is interested in providing a patch, or building a plugin, it might be worth looking at something like Drupal to see if they’ve implemented similarly dependent metadata fields, and how they’ve done it.
