Hi,
i posted a similar question in the “How to” Forum a few weeks ago, but unfortunately did not receive any answers. Maybe it is more a issue of “Creating & Extending” and so i hope, that you guys could help me out. It would also be very helpful, if someone told me, that my problem is not solvable at all.
So the question is: is it possible to show updates on custom profile fields like relationship status in the activity stream, something like “User X changed his relationship status to Y”? I hope I didn’t fail to see any obvious possibility and would be really grateful for every hint.
Greetings,

One more question — how do I add profile fields that can only be seen by the user that is setting it up? For example, I want the Name field hidden and the user known on the site by their username only. Right now it is showing as seen by Anyone. I can’t have that on the type of site I am building.
And can fields be searched on?
Fields profile settings by how!!
Please help I want tuned like the case here

I’m looking at something under the
“
like
`<?php
$var=bp_member_profile_data(‘field=Field’);
if $var==”string” { ?>`
followed by the member loop code with added fields.
– Put into Practice –
When I put this into practice using a radio field called Publish with Yes & No options
`<?php
$publish_var = bp_member_profile_data( ‘field=Publish’ );
if ($publish_var == “Yes”) { ?>`
my directory displays a two yes’ (the correct number of yes’ in the DB) and ends.
When I edit the code for the opposite
`<?php
$publish_var = bp_member_profile_data( ‘field=Publish’ );
if ($publish_var != “Yes”) { ?>`
The output is the normal member directory with the field “Publish” displayed atop each member.
I am answering what you’ve stated in “I would like for a login to not use the admin bar and it all be a front end deal.”
As for registration, Paul asked you what you needed that was not already in BuddyPress, where by default, you can create xprofile fields in base (primary group) which users can fill up during registration. Then you could create a new profile group and fill it up with fields which users can fill up after they have registered.
== I get the normal wordpress user profile editable fields? ==
If you mean the first and last names in wp-admin user settings, then you have to create a script to call those as BP xprofile fields has its own settings. Otherwise, you can create First Name field and Last Name field in User > Profiles panel https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/#users-profile-fields
I am customising the buddypress member profile page. I need the user to be able to edit his first name and last name, yet these fields aren’t in the edit.php profile page. How do I get the field and make in in an input and save to the database? Hope that makes sense, I just want the user to be able to edit his first and last name.
Missing in buddypress profile fields (name, etc…) visibility only for me.
There is only: anyone, logged users and friends, but only for me missing.
BTW is there any mod, plugin to solve this issue?
Hi everyone!
I’ve been looking for an easy way to get an overview of all of my users and to sort them depending on different categories, i.e. last active, time of registration, number of posts and similar parameters. Today I discovered the excellent plugin “amr users” which lets me do all that and is jam-packed with settings and features. If you’re looking for a similar plugin, do check it out here:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/amr-users/
There is also an add-on for BuddyPress which reportedly will add the ability to sort users based on profile fields, which in my case would be extremely useful in sorting different types of users. Haven’t tried it yet since it’s $15, but will do that shortly. Check that out here:
http://wpusersplugin.com/related-plugins/amr-user-plugin-add-ons/amr-users-plus-buddypress/
Have anyone else tried this plugin or do you have another way of viewing and sorting all users?
Yes, you could create this but it would require custom coding. Great idea for using BP. The profile fields can be set up for the required info. The emailing members part is where the custom coding would come into play. You can use WP-Cron to find members with a profile field set to stolen and then execute a notification which will result in an email.
You can create a select menu but you have to enter options on field creation. No way to pull info from db
brilliant, next Q, is there a plugin that can “populate” a text field with data from the wp DB? example say i wanted to show the users country field from wp_users field or say his membership level from membership pro table?
If you look at the xprofile creation page in dashboard you’ll see it says “Fields in the “Base” group will appear on the signup page.” thus if you create a new group and fields those will only appear on the users profile edit screens.
If you want to auto populate fields from other WP tables then you’ll need to write a script to do this.
Is there anyway, to make X-profiles fields NOT appear in the sign up / register page? I would like users to be able to fill in fields later as they please, and also populate some fields with data from other wp tables.
We need to have a way to charge for profile fields Like I have a profile group field called advertisers and I would like to charge for advertisers to fill that out We need this feature because we need to be able to charge people advertise sites on their profiles and I think it would be cool and my site members would love it

@mercime this is what i wanted to do here’s and example http://josephscott.org/code/javascript/jeip-demo/ with the custom fields a quick edit solution on the fly but i dont seem to find an answer how i can edit it like this and saving it without the user going the the custom fields group and doing it manually, i want a quick/fast solution for the users to edit fields on the fly. i hope you can help me out thank you.
I understand , he wants to add this data also below every member in every group’s directory , it means if Group A has 20 members he wants to show their profile fields in that Group A member’s directory, at this moment code shows members profile fields data only in members directory (general)
Nice snippet @ericreynolds007 , it works very well ! Did you managed to get to find a code for Group members directory ? Would be nice to show fields IF are present , otherwise hide
Yeah, a developer could create a plugin that had different info fields for different users. It’s just not a core feature to have profile fields for different users. The main reason for this is BuddyPress doesn’t have different types of users. Everyone is a subscriber. The admins and mods just pertain to groups.
I should elaborate, you could do conditional profile page design but you can not have conditional profile fields
Hi all,
I’ve been looking through the forums for an answer to this question but I haven’t found a specific answer. I set-up two different user types at registration for instance teacher and student. Then for each type of user I would like to create a different profile page with different fields. So that if you are a teacher user you must fill in profile fields that would be different for a student user.
Does anybody know if there is a plug-in available or a way of changing the settings to do this?
