We have to workaround this issue.

function my_fix_linking(){

remove_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value',

'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 2 );

add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value',

'my_filter_link_profile_data', 2, 3 );

}

add_action('bp_member_theme_functions', 'my_fix_linking');



function my_filter_link_profile_data($field_value,

$field_type = 'textbox', $field_id){

if ( 'textbox' == $field_type)

return $field_value;

else xprofile_filter_link_profile_data($field_value, $field_type);

}

That will stop linking any field that is a text box.

function my_filter_link_profile_data($field_value,

$field_type = 'textbox', $field_id){

if ( 999 == $field_id)

return $field_value;

else xprofile_filter_link_profile_data($field_value, $field_type);

}

That will stop linking for the field whose field_id is 999.

Your choice. I haven’t tested the above code but it should work. Add the code above to your bp-custom.php file. If you don’t have one create one in /mu-plugins.
