Reply To: After WordPress 6.7 release, buddypress fails
On second thought… this is within the Buddypress coding, so something that must have changed for WordPress 6.7 is not interacting correclty anymore with Buddypress.
The “Alphabetical” sorting of the user list is sorting on the “Name” base field of bp_xprofile_data table (field 1). This field I had renamed to “Naam” (which is Dutch for Name). This is hardcoded in the database and not avaibable as translation string. After switching back to “Name”, everything worked again. Before, I was allowed to use switch the name of the field. How do you translate this? I now have used a filter function in my functions.php, but it shouldn’t be necessary.
Furthermore I discovered the memberlist is sorting on that particular “Name” field, instead of the “display name” I want to use. Any idea’s how to get the userlist to sort on display name instead of “Name” ? Why do we have a mandatory “Name” field anyway?
