Re: How does the Admin add New Members to BuddyPress
BuddyPress users are essentially WP users there’s no separation and in this and other respects BP is a plugin running under WP and thus using aspects of WP such as users/signups
Buddypress has extended profiles that can be set in the dashboard under the BP menu there you can add new fields to the base group (base group fields are displayed on the initial signup page) or create new filed groups for anything you like and those will be displayed on the users profile screens and accessed under ‘edit profile’ by the user to complete.
As an admin you are very limited as to what you can set on a users profile, basically being restricted to the capabilities under the WP dashboard ‘users’ and ‘add users’
