you can create a new group, put the required ‘not deletable’ topics into that new group (by drag and drop) and then delete this new group

hi
thank you very much for this code!

Just one thing I don’t get to work. The Display Name. So I have first- and last name for ‘Name’, but how will it show this as display name over the whole site?
You wrote a line to modify it, but it will always show the username, not the ‘Name’ which is consist of first and last name.

That’s what I tried (I’m a real newbie):
$wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( "UPDATE {$wpdb->users} SET display_name = %s WHERE ID = %d", $firstname, $lastname, $user_id ) );
Is there something I do wrong?

And is the third field ‘Nickname’ necessary? Isn’t that the same as ‘Username’?

Thank you!!

yes, they’re not the problem… I want them there so they can already fill that out. The only thing is the required username.

No, there is no other plugin which could cause it

I think the left side is the WordPress registration and right the one for buddypress.. there are my custom profile fields too.

thanks… thats not really compareable, the double password entering is just for precaution.
I’ve never seen anywhere to enter my username twice.. And what if they enter two different ones, they don’t know for sure with which one they could login. That’s just odd for everyone who don’t know it’s about WordPress and Buddypress.

Your link couldn’t help me, the topics are about not using usernames at general, I need it, but not twice. I dont’t trust the Plugin Simplr Registration Form Plus+, sounds good but there are many who had problems with their databases after using it..
