Hello lbeetles,
Do you have a members widget in the same Members page? And do the search results appear in that widget? If so, remove that widget from the page. If that doesn’t solve the problem, I might need to debug the issue on your test site.

You have to rename the plugin folder, see the note in the readme file. I think I have found a workaround to this problem, and I’ll release it in the next plugin version.

Hi Marcy,

Unfortunately that’s the “rename directory” bug again! Please rename the plugin folder as suggested in the readme file.
I hope you’ll like this plugin version, when you’ll be able to see the admin page!

Good suggestion, thank you!

Hi Edmin,

thank you for your suggestion, I’ll try to add that feature in the next plugin version. If you succeed before I do, please send me your patch!

Hi Rossagrant,

I’ve recently received a patch that hides/shows the search form with jQuery, so I’m about to release it. I just need a few days to integrate and test it. Thank you for your feedback!

That’s a good idea, I’ll think about it. Thank you for your feedback!

Please see the last note in the installation instructions, I am afraid that’s a WP or BP bug.

Hi Jonathan,

thank you for your kind words. Here are my answers to your questions.

1) That’s feasible but not simple, the next point is much simpler.

2) If you know how to show/hide a div with JavaScript, you can just code such a div in your page, and put the search form call inside it.

Since many readers don’t like to code themselves, I plan…[Read more]

Hello Svante,

currently the plugin works by filtering the member list function and, to avoid filtering every member list on the page, it operates only once per page.

So I think you could edit your theme and move the sidebar div *after* the content div, so the members directory will be filtered and the widget will be left alone. Alternately you…[Read more]

If you can’t access the plugin admin page, try renaming your plugin folder name from bp-profile-search to profile-search and reactivating the plugin.
It works, but I don’t know why…

Hi John,

there is another potential customer asking for the same feature, please email me for details (andrea@blogsweek(dot)com).

Not really soon, I’m now busy with other projects and I’ll need to find some free time to go on with the updates. Thank you for your patience!

Currently BP Profile Search works by filtering the member directory entries, and it has to stay on the members page in order to be effective. Alternately you could display the member directory on the home page, and it will be filtered by the plugin search form results.

Hi Marcy,

apparently you forgot to add the search form call in your theme file ‘members/index.php’ (see the installation instructions).

I just added it, and the search form looks fine now.

Congratulations on your new site!

Hi Marcy,

The best I can do is to try and debug the issue on your site, if you send me the admin and FTP access credentials to andrea@dontdream(dot)it.

Hi Marcy,

sure I will, thank you for sharing!
