Right… It looks like its working now, ive just logged out and back in again and the fields are showing correctly. The template overrides must have worked.

Thank you for your help.

Basically Ive been asked to fix this field problem on someone elses website, Ive just been given access to FTP so can now make changes to the server files.

They are using a theme called Huddle and have BuddyPress install on the latest version:
http://themeforest.net/item/huddle-wordpress-buddypress-community-theme/835549

The theme folder has a members folder in for BuddyPress, which i assumed was the standard for BuddyPress. I have overridden the templates you suggested in /themes/huddle/members/single and the issue is still present.

I switched to a default WordPress theme to test compatibility and the fields are working like normal. So the issues is with the Huddle theme, now that its using the correct profile-loop and edit templates im not sure what the problem can be?

Hey, I could be using the wrong view and edit templates as they do not look the same as the profile pages on buddypress.org.

I do not have full access to replace files on the server manually, I have updated WordPress and BuddyPress to the latest versions.

Do I need to manually replace the legacy files on the server with these files?

I thought this would correct itself when the plugin is updated.
