Typically, I have used ftp to update child theme files an continue to do so.
Today, I haven’t had done much on the site. A quick rundowN where it all started.
1. In (BP XPROFILE custom) profile fields menu item, I tried to edit one of my custom fields from some months ago. I can get in there and edit, but there’s no save?
2. So, I still have a BP update from 1.7 to do; maybe that’s it? No save button in profile fields.
3. Go to do some light edits to footer.php core, but have started using child theme and functions.php, style.css so as to not mess with core files. I do have backups and only wanted to make a small edit for the header in functions as my test in the child theme functions.php gave me no results. I can share how I did that later, but the big issue has been:
4. No save button on anything. I tried in Chrome, then in IE9, same deal. This was both before and after chmod’ing from 644, to 666, then also the full 777. I tried on both the file and the folder level; still no save buttins i the theme editor or the custom profile fields.
It’s been a a while since I edited. I recall having a save in the theme editor and the profile field edit screen. Any ideas? I’m kind of perplexed at this juncture;-)
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
jzI have several fields that ask for a URL (to a YouTube Channel or Tumblr blog) and instead of the link going to
http://www.youtube.com/user/myChannel
this link is generated

Hi
I am using the following to get a members xprofile data displayed
<?php echo xprofile_get_field_data( 'Specialist Sectors', get_the_author_id()) ?>It works fine for xprofile fields that are free text, but the fields that are checkboxes, it simply returns ‘array’ to the front end.
Is there a way to include this so it works?
Thanks,
Ian
The ‘Delete’ button is very close to the ‘Edit’ button in Profile fields. Can you imagine the tragedy if one accidentally clicked on ‘Delete’ instead of ‘Edit’ for one of the field names? Well, I learned that the hard way 🙁 It’s critical to have a ‘Are you sure?’ prompt when clicking on ‘Delete’ rather than having an entire part of your database and years of data collection vanish forever just like that.
My bio in my profile used to render html, and now it doesn’t. Am I missing something, or is that universal now?
Hello,
Im using BuddyPress in my site, it’s intergrated in my theme, so i have a problem, i want to change font color in profile information fields. Well the image is below.
The problem is that it’s hard to see the text, and i want to change color to dark, or something to solve the problem, thanks. 🙂Buddypress version: 1.7.2
WordPress version: 3.5.1
Theme Framework: Genesis v1.9.2 custom theme
Development URL: http://creativeconundrum.com/kristen2During the past 2 days, I’ve uninstalled BP Compatibility Pack and re-worked my site to use the built-in compatibility for my Genesis Custom Theme. Aside from having to re-write a lot of CSS to make thinks look as good as they used to, everything is working great, Wishlist Member and all … although I don’t have that many plugins installed. (smile)
Aside from CSS re-work (ugh!), the only core customization that I have in place is what I posted to this thread:
http://buddypress.org/support/topic/wp-search-results-page-kills-bp-member-widgets/The template modifications were done by moving the template files from bp-legacy to my child theme folder, as was recommended to do by this site.
I noticed that the page titles changed in this process and this seems to be a core buddypress title that is displayed. For example, when the BP Compatibility Plugin was enabled, the Members page had a title of “Members Directory. Now it just says “Members” and I liked the idea of it being a Directory. Yes, I could rename the page title for the menu but when folks get to the page itself, it will still say just “Members.” Genesis has many filters for modifying these sorts of things so you won’t have to change the code. Does Buddypress?
Is there a hook/filter that I can use to change these default titles?
Another thing that I noticed is that there is a new button to the left of the title for creating a group. What is the intention of this button? It seems redundant, since a user is already being walked through the group creation process. Is it safe to remove that button?
Lastly, while the extended profile feature gives user control to what is visible, the default is “anyboday” and I don’t know where that is set or how to change it. I’d like it to be set to private and allow the member to choose what is public and to whom because, on this site, we are capturing a lot of extra information after their registration is approved and people are sensitive.
Additionally, this form itself is not very pretty when you have a lot of fields on it. Have you ever heard of anyone using Gravity forms to improve the styling & layout? Is it possible to “hook” into the profile update features via Gravity Forms with the User Registration addon and keep the visibility options available to the user? I have asked this of Gravity Forms through a priority support ticket and they came back with a “we need to escalate this” sort of answer so I thought I would look here for tips and advice.
Whew! Sorry for the tome…
Hi, I have set up some custom fields in the profile fields section. However, one I can’t get rid of or change its title is “nickname”. It says it’s primary and doesn’t offer any delete option. It does offer a n edit option and I do edit the title however it doesn’t change it. It still displays “nickname”. How can I go about changing this? Or at least change what is the primary field?
thanks for your help.
