Looks also like you’re missing an ending div tag (from what you copied&pasted) If that end div tag for the “member_profile” class is there, then that should work… As long as the field name is ‘Category’.
It just might be because it’s a multi check box, though! If that’s the case, I don’t know if there is a way to pull that information.
Where are you putting your code? Directly in the template file or elsewhere?
And mine were Multiselect boxes, rather than checkboxes, but it should give you the same array output. For those, I had to parse the strings into something a bit more readable.
Again, I use xprofile fields, but this is what my code looks like:
I did not want to edit template files so I used a plugin called ‘Code Snippets’ which allows me to write code without editing the theme’s functions.php file or, like I said, the BP template files. However, to add them to the pages I had to use the “add_action()” hook.
Haha I have about 47 different plugins installed into my site and it runs fairly smoothly. The only thing is my geolocation plugin causes my page to refresh the first time you view it.
In step 2 it shows PHP code to grab profile field data. You’ll have to either edit the template you want or create your own tab if you want it on a new page besides one of the pages you already have up on your site.
Does the area you want your users to write need to be like many different blog posts? Or just like a single biography section?
I can help you with code for a biography section. For that you need Xprofile Fields installed.
For blog posts, the answer I’ve gotten for that is to activate a Multisite network and then get the plugin for front-end blog posting (look for one that is compatible with BuddyPress).
I did something similar to you, I made a whole new profile page though, for my users.
First off, do you have xProfile Fields installed and active? You’ll need that.
