Re: Profile groups make public
Hi,
yes everything is public in the current version of BuddyPress. In order to view these new fields all that you have to do is to fill them.
I not sure if I misunderstand what your problem is, so I apologize if this is something you already know.
So, after you finished adding new fields in admin section, go to your Buddypress profile page, hit Edit profile. On the first page you will see fields from the Base group. If you are using Buddypress default theme, look at the gray bar just under SocialNetwork title. On this bar you will see something like:
[ME] [MY PROFILE] [Base] [and here should be your new groups]
Just click on your group, enter some text in those fields and they will be shown on your profile page.
