this is my bp-custom file:

<?php
function remove_xprofile_links() {
remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_profile_field_value’, ‘xprofile_filter_link_profile_data’, 9, 2 );
}
add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘remove_xprofile_links’ );
define(“BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT”,”profile”)
?>

That didn’t seem to do it. I can just dump that code into the theme’s functions.php file?

I’m not great with php. Or is it this:

//disable WordPress sanitization to allow more than just $allowedtags from /wp-includes/kses.php
remove_filter( ‘xprofile_data_value_before_save’,
//add sanitization for WordPress posts
‘xprofile_sanitize_data_value_before_save’, 1, 2 );

I don’t know. I just added the most recent version after 1.6.

I found this but it’s not working:

Enable or Disable All HTML Tags in WordPress Author Biography Profiles

//disable WordPress sanitization to allow more than just $allowedtags from /wp-includes/kses.php
remove_filter(‘pre_user_description’, ‘wp_filter_kses’);
//add sanitization for WordPress posts
add_filter( ‘pre_user_description’, ‘wp_filter_post_kses’);

I was using a bad theme so the above link might not have worked. I’ve changed themes and I’m having the same problems.
