    Does that mean that I can integrate users data with their blog. Right now the two are separated. I want to show blocks of information from a users profile in their blog. For instance:
    Show profile fields, avatar upload and other info on a users blog page.
    Is that possible?

    thanks

    Oh, I figured this out. Oddly, if you deactivate “Private Messaging” in BuddyPress it seems (at least for me) that the notifications information and content up until “Send a notification by email when:” stays. I was able to just comment out the Settings tab using CSS and move the update Password & Email fields to my Edit Profile section.

    Thanks!

    Any field you add on the first group (as seen above) will show up in registration page. If you “Add a New Profile Field Group”, any field you add in this new group will not be shown in registration but in member’s profile page after logging in.

    Hi. I’m a newbie to Buddypress. I’m trying to create a page where users create a profile. I can’t seem to find any information about it. Registration page works. I’m not sure where to go? Is there a plugin that that allows you to create more fields? Checkboxes? Thanks

    Hello Everyone,

    I plan to launch few websites using buddypress.

    All sites will be ‘almost’ same type, the only difference will be the topic of the site.

    What I mean is that all sites will be “consumer complaint and discussion sites” focused on various different complaints or topics.

    The complaint form will have same number of fields but the field descriptions/titles will be changed to better fit the topic of the complaint site.

    Each site will have it’s own unique domain name, even though they will all be sharing same/single buddypress install.

    So I have the following questions:

    1. Can buddypress provide full complaint/discussion site functionality for people to complain about various issues or discuss any topic? Do I need a plugin for submitting complaints or topics?
    2. Is it possible to setup a social network of many sites (each with different domain name) using same buddypress install?
    3. Is it possible to share users among all sites so that they can login to any site in the network withOUT registering again? In other words: same user profile for all sites in the network.
    4. If #3 above is possible, then is it possible to keep the user blogs, forums, groups, activity, etc all separate from site to site?
    5. Is there a plugin available to have multi-network buddypress sites setup properly?
    6. Will all the networks ‘have to’ use the same exact theme?
    7. How many maximum number of network sites can be installed on a single buddypress install without breaking it?

    Note: The reason I want to have a multi network on single buddypress install is so that it is easy to manage using single admin panel.

    Please advise if this is even possible or do I just need to use separate buddypress for each site?

    Thank you very much for your help.

    I’m trying to allow extra profile groups on my profile edit page specifically. I’m looking at the template and the way it seems to let do this is by showing all groups which I’ve done. The problem here is I now have a form for each group all with their own save buttons. So my question is how do I need to alter the profile edit template so that I can show all groups with one universal save button for all fields?

    Thanks for the answers,

    It would be better with profile fields (users are used to this kind of display for multiple games), but i’ll take a look into other solutions as you told Shane, and i’ll first look at files you mentionned.
    I think that later i’ll look after plugin development (skeleton plugin is a very good way to understand basics), because highscores friends notifications + profile tab with games scores is an elegant and efficient way to socialise games activities (facebook proove it well…).

    Indeed social + games website can suit well with bp and even better with plugins, Because plugins are often simpler than the bp core functions (like profiles are), it’s quite easy to plug them with other things.
    As an example the drawing game connection with bp_album was very easy to develop, cause it was just some very basic php/mysql queries, i use just 2 or 3 queries to achieve this…
    I also connect Cubepoints to one my game, the points can be converted in gold coins, by this way i can get more gamers social investisment in community.

    Ok i’ll give news if i meet problems.

    I am just learning MultiSite WordPress myself. So far I’ve learned that if I want to edit Templates or Plugins pages for another site, I first have to activate the Theme I want to make changes to as my first level site, the Admin Site, or Edit the Plugin via the Admin site. Then, I go under the Main/Admin Site and edit the Templates or Plugin. After I have everything looking good, then I activate the Theme or Plugin for the actual site where I want to use the Template or Plugin. One must use this method (based on my learning) if one wants to use an external Editor, such as Dreamweaver.

    I did notice that the access to the Activity, Sites, Forums, et al only show up in WordPress’s Tool Bar (the dark gray bar at the top of the page) under my Profile Link on the far right, when I am Logged In. I think this part is not clear in the directions, imo. After the initial install of BuddyPress MultiSite, I was able to see a couple of the BuddyPress pages links in the Main Menu of my top Site only after I am logged in.

    Since I know I want to edit my Theme for one of the Sites, I have not enabled the separate tables for the additional site. I am going to edit the Theme first and then enable the other sites using the method described at this page: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/using-multisite-with-buddypress/segregated-x-profile-fields-for-multisite/ .

    How can I make a custom advanced field within WordPress communicate with BuddyPress profile pages?

    Is the server running on object or page caching? If you aren’t sure, are you running W3 Total Cache or any other caching plugins and what the settings are?

    I am assuming that error in your post is recent. It’s saying that a database table mydb_ivdb4wp.pd doesn’t exist. “mydb_ivdb4wp” is your database name. Where you have the part “LEFT JOIN pd”, it should look like this:

    “LEFT JOIN {$bp->profile->table_name_data} pd” (the middle part is replace by the name of an xprofile database table).

    Now to figure out why. If you look in your database, do you have these tables? wp_bp_xprofile_data, wp_bp_xprofile_fields, wp_bp_xprofile_groups, wp_bp_xprofile_meta ?

    You’re very welcome!

    Your problem sounds interesting. You could either build your own query / cache / template functions and display it in the bottom of the profile table, or sync that external content into BP’s profile fields database tables.

    Topic: Is this a bug?

    in forum Miscellaneous

    I’m using separate first name and last name xprofile fields (wish I hadn’t as BP doesn’t deal with this well at all, but it’s too late). However, in order to get full names showing up I’ve been trying to use ‘bp_get_member_profile_data’. It wasn’t working, so I did some digging and in ‘bp-members-template.php’ there is the following code (line 604):
    `if ( !empty( $members_template->member->id ) )
    $user_id = $members_template->member->id;`
    But when I print the $members_template global, there is no key ‘id’, it’s called ‘user_id’. If I change that core file to use ‘user_id’, my full name solution works as expected.

    Is that a bug, or am I missing something?

    Hi there,

    First if the authors read and participate in this forums i would like to thanks them for the work on buddypress, bbpress too. I setted up a whole wp/bp/bbp community and everythings work like a charm, and after some little hacks in my theme files i’ve been abble to highly increase performances and having a real professionnal community website(i think i’ll post some of these hacks in here one of these days).

    So as the subject of my post tell its good, where could find ressources (tutorials or examples) on how to display custom datas (like games scores) stored in a db, into the users profile fields.

    – I already know and use alternate php login with wp functions in wp dbs with my external games, as an example i already did a system to send pictures made in one drawing game into bp_album db, then display them in bp album section of a user profile.

    – I know and and use the custom fields in profiles setup in wp admin, but i don’t know how and what specify to display alternate informations like game scores.

    Could someone just help me to find somethings related to this.

    Solution found here:

    https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/problem-with-profile-information-please-help/?topic_page=1&num=15

    If any of your profile fields are asking for links, however, and your users input http://, you’re still going to get the same nofollow craziness!

    Thanks @shanebp!

    Looks like we are still waiting on this issue, there is another post here that I started:

    https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/emoticons-not-displaying-correctly-buddypress-1-6-1/

    Obviously this is a repeatable bug in buddypress..

    I have been waiting over a month on this as well as my other post.. I am using wordpress 1.6.1, I was fine with version 1.5.7.. I checked all plugins and it is not my theme.. it has to be a buddypress issue. When using the extended profile with emoticons on not only do emoticon’s like this :) don’t work but other extended profile fields turn regular text into HTML links for no apparent reason at all.. this is very frustrating as I am about to launch a website and can not have this happening.. someone please help..

    I wouldn’t mess with a plugins code but work around it. You could write a function to redirect user to profile edit page if certain fields are not entered in the profile edit form.

    Hi All,

    I used WP-FB-Autoconnect plugin. It works well if any existing user logs in using FB credentials. But, it is not stopping unregistered users from logging in. Ideally, it should direct the unregistered users to the registration page for them to fill some profile fields. Is there any way I could stop unregistered users from logging in using WP-FB-Autoconnect plugin? and also to redirect the unregistered users to the registration page.? Please help.

    Also, is there any better free plugin that handles registration and login effectively? I am looking for FB login/register functionality something similar to the one in Pinterest..

    @ashraf something’s getting lost in translation. Are you asking how to add profile fields (https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/#users-profile-fields) and/or asking for a demo site which allows you to add profile fields (none public that I know of) ?

    Easy solution I didn’t really understand at first.. but not it’s quite obvious.

    I created a profile field check-box (“Publish”) to let users control their visibility within the directory.
    After the while loop I inserted the code:

    `
    `

    Then, following
    `<a href="”>`
    I added my profile fields, one by one:
    `Experience Type: `

    Refinements I’d like.
    Access to Group Fields in bulk, or at least being able to distinguish between group A, field 1 and group B, field 1 if field 1 is named the same within each group. i.e. Family Group, Name, Friend Group, Name.. etc.

    In the mean time, with some appropriate styling, this should give me a good looking member profile page, allowing members to elect to participate in the directory.

    I have installed a plugin called WP-Geolocation (http://www.wp-geolocation.com/) which allows me display the following shortcode (see list at end) on any post and page. I was trying to add these shortcodes or javascript variables (handles both) INTO a 3 form fields called County, City and region.
    using the php echo do shortcode commands… well i can echo anywhere in the code, but do you think I can “echo” INSIDE a form text field??

    In normal HTML or ASP this is a breeze, why is it so difficult in WP to do this? I mean the variable is there and available on every page and post (runs in header), why can i not have form value php echo do_shortcode (had to tweak that to display here) and have the field filled in on the registration form.

    For us it is essential to have the users’ location at sign up, preferably I would like to use buddypress Xprofile fields to display the field at signup and the allowing the variables or shortcode to auto poulate the field… I have tried so many things, bought gravity forms, tried Formidable… no luck, something so simple…

    The best plugin that anyone could develop for BuddyPress would be a better X Profile Fields Editor, allowing you to specify a SHORTCODE or variable right there and then…

    Anybody want to make a quick buck and sort this for me, as i have spent 2 days JUST trying to get this done, crazy… my skype is greg.mcewan.marriott and my email greg@imediate.co.za

    The variables are there, just “put them” INSIDE the form field…

    VARIABLES
    ===========

    Within any blog post or page, you can use the following shortcodes:

    [mmjs-countrycode] – the ISO 3166-2 country code
    [mmjs-countryname] – the country name
    [mmjs-city] – the city name
    [mmjs-region] – the ISO 3166-2 country code (state or province abreviation)
    [mmjs-regionname] – the region name
    [mmjs-lat] – latitude
    [mmjs-long] – longitude
    [mmjs-postalcode] – post/zip code
    [mmjs-ip] – ip address

    The plugin also generates corresponding JavaScript variables in your theme for use with JQuery, dynamic forms, etc:

    mmjsCountryCode
    mmjsCountryName
    mmjsCity
    mmjsRegion
    mmjsRegionName
    mmjsLat
    mmjsLong
    mmjsPostalCode
    mmjsIPAddress

    Yes, you can do this, but you need to write PHP code.

    Have a look at some of the actions that are invoked when profile fields are saved, and hook on to those. It’s a little complicated because you aren’t told which fields have changed (just field groups), so you’ll probably also have to maintain previous value and compare to latest.
