BuddyPress.org

Ironically enough, if you save your profile without all of the required fields filled in on the page, it still saves the data. Not sure if this is a bug or not, but I kind of like it like this actually

John,

I just tried editing a test user profile field in which a newly-created required field had not yet been modified by that user. I changed some data in a different field and when I clicked on “Save Changes”, I got a message stating that:

There were problems saving your information. Please fix the following:

"Allow this profile group to be seen by" cannot be left blank.

In other words, since I had not entered data in this new required field, it would not let me save my changes.
