Ewwww! Point well taken! Thanks, @boonebgorges I guess a good solution would be to find a plug-in that lets you “replicate/migrate” an existing user’s xprofile contents to a a new user then you can delete the original user. Fortunately, I’ve only had to deal with this situation one time and, although i thought it might be […]

Hey, that works! Thanks a bunch!! I understand why that hook is a better selection and why the conditional is necessary but, I must admit, I don’t fully understand the concept of templates. I keep learning new stuff as i come across it so, I guess, this becomes yet another new topic to start digging […]

Thanks, I’ll use that as my default strategy but i was trying to be creative so that future upgrades wouldn’t require me to have to refresh the file. I tried doing the following: function postSignup_msg() { echo “blah, blah, blah”; echo “more blah, blah, blah”; } add_action( ‘bp_complete_signup’, ‘postSignup_msg’, 2 ); To my surprise, a […]

Well, it wasn’t obvious but i did resolve my own question. The “Publish” vs. “Submit-for-Review” button option is determined by the users role definition. an AUTHOR will have the PUBLISH button available on a Post page; whereas, a CONTRIBUTOR will have the Submit-for-Review button.

I think the following properly displays the output from bp_get_the_profile_field_options() as an example of when radio-buttons intermittently display incorrectly. Below that I also show a potential fix – although @jeffsayre or another BP-expert may have a better solution. (Thanks @hnla for explanation) <div id="field_125"><label><input…[Read more]

uuuughhh… I converted all of the “<" to be "["

oops… I forgot that the html string wouldn’t display properly and I don’t know how to include it in this Post. Embarrassingly, I know coding well enough to debug but don’t know a simple strategy like how to display html soooo, i’ve converted all of the ” [label> [input checked=”checked” type=”radio” name=”field_125″ id=”option_126″…[Read more]

I’m refreshing this thread because I’m experiencing this same problem in my blog but I’ve not found a solution anywhere else in the forum. I believe I’ve tracked the problem to its source in bp-xprofile-templatetags.php but need a little help to resolve it. To recreate this issue, I have a 5-value radio-button sequence with the […]

I tried the loop… this is AWESOME!! @boonebgorges: I agree with @r-a-y ’s advice — of course, without knowing the software structure of BP, it’s harder to find specific functions. Still… understanding the underlying concept of the “global” loop has freed my thought-processes. I had read the documentation on the Loop but didn’t grasp that t…[Read more]

Just to clarify… here’s what I’m doing. I’ve defined two xProfile groups: “Admin-only” and “Professional”. Next, I defined a membership-type field in that “Admin-only” group with values Pro, Standard and Volunteer. Finally, within the “Professional” group, I’ve provided several fields available only to that membership-type. Within my theme, I’ve…[Read more]

@DJPaul: I was looking for functions that might manipulate various xProfile fields (in particular) i was trying to extract info about checkbox type field. (I see that you may have provided me some insight on that topic in a separate thread). @boonebgorges: thanks for the clarification re: files used for themes – i was wondering why it […]
