    Hello! So I’m almost done setting up buddypress for my new website! I do have a few questions and it’d be great if someone could help me find the answers.

    I created a few custom fields (using Extended Profiles) for a user’s website and one for a short bio. Right now the entries for these fields are processed like tags, it seems. They are searchable in the the members directory. This great for hobbies and occupation, but not for the bio and website field.

    I’d like the website field to link to the actual website (instead of to the buddypress directory) and I’d like the bio to be “linkless” (right now it’s linking to the buddypress directory). I need it to be plain text. Can this be done?

    Then I’ve also got an issue with the fact that, on the members page, you can’t search using more than one field (name in combination with hobby, for example). There’s a topic about that issue here: http://buddypress.org/support/topic/cant-search-for-multiple-words-in-memory-directory/

    Any help at all would be appreciated! Thanks 🙂

    Hello,

    I’ve been struggling to figure this out for a week now and am finally at the end of my rope.

    Is there a way to create a simple conditional based on user role? I’m going to use it to create custom profile fields and to add custom static content to member_header.php.

    I think I just need to get the conditional to figure this out, but if there’s something I don’t know about custom profile fields outside of the profile field generator in BP, then I’d love to hear your thoughts on that too. lol

    Thanks so much!!

    I realized the secondary fields do show up on the profile page, but under a separate tab within the profile field. It’d be nice if the entire thing showed up, but that sounds like a fair bit of custom coding.

    Okay so this topic was started an year ago. I am hoping there is some update being made on this.

    I need to be able to do this. Even without the jQuerry just show specific fields for specific user types.

    Anyone has any idea on how to do this ?

    I need to get this working too. I want the secondary fields to be only visible on the profile page.

    Let me know if there’s a solution to this issue.

    I installed the plug-in for BP Registration Options and although the list appears in the members for approval as expected, I an not able to view the profile fields that have been completed. Members are required to fill out base fields but unless they are correct, but have no way to see them. If someone could shed some light on what I might be doing wrong that would be appreciated.
    Thanks. Purnima

    I am trying to display the actual field name alongside the field in the member profile loop.

    I’ve used the following code to display the field:

    <?php bp_member_profile_data( ‘field=cancer type’ ); ?>

    Now I need to display the actual field name.  Can someone provide help with that?  One of our profile fields is Type of Cancer, but now all you see is “Breast” rather than Type of Cancer: Breast.

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks for the reply. I understand I could do that but its not quite what I’m after.

    I want to be able to filter a custom post type with the details provided in the xprofile. The problem i have is that the data field i want to search by has many items in them (tick box list of attributes). I dont know how to explode them all (if explode is the correct php term??)

    What im making is a custom post type of jobs advertised on the site and when they get to that index of posts i nead to search the posts custom fields or tags with their xprofile data field.

    I hope that makes sense

    Hey there folks, I’m using extended profiles and have a custom profile field for “Last Name”.

    If I perform a search in my member directory for “John” then I get results for John Doe.

    However if I do a search for “John Doe” I get zero results.

    Is there any way to search for multiple search terms that might include lines from different fields at the same time?

    I appreciate any help that you can provide. Thank you all.

    Hello,

    That worked great. I will read up further on how to set up the forum functionality.

    An eventual goal is to work on adding some custom functionality to the user profile page, is there a recommended documentation section that reviews this? I was wading into the documentation area, but not sure what codes / fields I should be looking for at this point.

    Hey Guys!

    I need some help with it.

    I purchased the BuddyPress user account type PRO plugin, so I can create different user types.

    So, I created a Multi-select box in the xprofile fields base called User Type and set 2 User Types, and associated the User Type Field to the Plugin, so in the User type field I created: User Type 1 and User Type 2.

    Type 1 can’t create new blogs
    Type 2 Can create new blogs

    Everything is working fine when the user does not select to create a new blog on the registration page, but the problem is, that when the user is registering, the blog creation fields still appears.

    What I need is this part to be shown just if the user chooses to be Type 2 in the registration page, if user chooses to be Type 1 the blog creation fields can’t beshown in registration page at all!

    I just want to condition the Blog Creation fields, if is type 1 not shows, if is type 2 shows, nothing else.

    How can I do that?

    Thanks

    Derek

    PS: I’m not a PHP developer.

    The present profile field visibility settings are not at all good and not working also.

    When we allow users to change the visibility it is changing the default visibility to ANYONE which is not at all useful.

    We cannot expect a user to change each and every fields visibility while he is filling up the registration form.. I hope the owners of buddypress look into this BUG which is seriously a issue for privacy of users,, and if there is some other plugging which can add some privacy strictly please do mention them here.

    And I am expecting @boonebgorges reply for this Bug as I guess he is one of the most best plugin developer in buddypress

    I look at the code and I see the following:

    div class=”editfield”>
    label for=”field_41″>Introduction</label
    textarea rows="5" cols="40" name="field_41" id="field_41" class="uniform"/

    I assumed field_41 is the name of the profile field so I used

    bp_member_profile_data( 'field=field_41' );

    to call the field in the members directory but it didn't work. I tried it with "Introduction" but it didn't work either.

    I would like to create a specific section like groups which I name to Company. So that user can create and register company here.

    I have copy the code of groups section (code mention in previous link)- modify it and create a directory which I name company

    Hello All,

    I am new to buddy press. Currently I am working in a site which consists of Directory Press + S2Member + BuddyPress. My aim is to retrieve the value from buddypress profile fields on profile activation. Everything went fine till try to get the data from the profile field in buddy press

    When I searched the documentation says us to use the function `bp_profile_field_data`

    The following code works fine in the file profile-loop.php

    `bp_member_profile_data( ‘field=Company Name’ )`

    But when I use the same code in functions.php it shows blank

    Thanks

    https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.6.4/bp-themes/bp-default/members/single/profile/edit.php would normally correspond to huddle/members/single/profile/edit.php file. Since you’re using a premium theme, we have no way to know if the theme author changed the HTML structure of that page. Back up your theme’s edit.php file and watch out that when you change the PHP tags, you won’t mess up the HTML tags in return.

    You are right but the author is not available for six months so I must find another way. Do you now which page is responsible in the standard BuddyPress theme? Is it easy to copy the responsible section of the plugin into the section of the Huddle theme?

    I appreciate any support that help 🙂

    Regards

    Thorsten

    #152280

    As you indicated, this looks to be a theme issue. Your best bet is to contact the author of the huddle theme.

    Hi,
    I use BuddyPress 1.6.4 with WP 3.5.1 and Huddle theme. I use the plugin ‘Buddypress Xprofile Custom Fields Type’ as well.

    For each field I can determine if a user is able to change the visibility for everyone, registered user and my friends. The status of field viewing is set to user changing. Some of the fields are set to everyone, registered user and my friends. After a user registered, all fields he set up in registration process are still viewable by visitors though some are set to registered user or my friends. In the user profile section there is no modus to change the visibility.

    But if I change the status of field viewing to no changing by the user, all non public fields cannot be view by visitors. But the the user has no chance to change this by himself.

    Does anybody knows why this happen?

    PS: If I use the standard BuddyPress theme it works, but not with Huddle theme.

    Please see my screenshots 1 and 2:

    1. http://www.socialmedialernen.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/screenshot2_standard-theme.jpg

    2. http://www.socialmedialernen.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/screenshot2_huddle-theme.jpg

    Where can I change this, any ideas?

    Thanks for help!

    Regards,
    Thorsten

    Benzine,

    I am searching another issue and see your issue and thought I may provide a solution because I ran into the same issue.  I couldn’t see any way to change or alter user profiles after entered.  I couldn’t see the fields which you think would be an easy thing, but highly annoying to learn that I couldn’t.  A solution…

    I am using the Gravity Forms plugin.  The problem is, the plugin is $50, but the only way to get their user registration add-on is to purchase the developer edition which is $200.  It works with Buddypress and User Registration very nicely.  You can go through your Gravity Form entries and make all of the edits to user profiles that you need.  I wish I knew of a less expensive solution, but Gravity Forms is a nice plugin and I’m sure you will find other uses for it on your site!

    I finally figured this out.  I am using Gravity Forms user registration plugin to work with my Buddypress theme.  My field names varied slightly between the custom profile field name and what I put on the user registration form.  I realized that I must use field name as it is entered in the WordPress Custom Profile Field.

    I do have one question…I would like to display the field name as well as what was entered in that field.  For example, this site is a cancer site and users will enter their type of cancer.  I would like it to read “Type of Cancer: Breast” rather than “Breast”

    Any suggestions?
