    Hello,
    I’m not sure if this is possible but I figured this is the place to ask. I’d like my users to be able to add to their profile the colleges they attended and their dates of enrollment. I’d like there to be a dropdown list of institutions (all major colleges and universities in the U.S.) and a date range field with month and year drop down menus. I’d also like the users to be able to fill in their institution if it’s not on the list. I’ve seen this functionality on other social networking sites but don’t know how to implement in Buddypress. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi all,

    I want that user should be able to enter as many previous job titles as they want. Which means user should be able to dynamically add fields. One user may have just one previous job title to add where as other user may have 4 job titles to add.

    Any suggestions on how can i handle this?

    thanks

    == how do you get that field to upload into that users profile? ==
    Profile fields show up in member’s profile page by default. What else do you mean by upload into users profile?

    == I would like to be able to track the members and the dates that they lost the love one ==

    @enjoywellbeing You can create profile fields for a) date when their loved one was born and b) date died. Then make the fields required.

    == I am looking for an easy theme to use for this purpose ==

    I would suggest using the default bp-default theme while you’re building your site and adding plugins so you can know that if anything goes wonky, it could very well have been caused by the plugin, etc.

    When you’re close to launching the site, you can use a WordPress theme and use BP Template Pack plugin to transfer BP template files and JS goodness. If you need assistance in fixing alignment, check out the list of WP themes we’ve “Template-Packed” so far.

    So is there a way to edit all of my user profiles fields from the backend admin area? It seems that only basic WP user data is editable….or am i missing something?

    Maybe a plugin that i can’t find?

    Thanks!

    @mercime so i fixed it by decativating, deleteing, and reinstalling BP. Everythings kosher so far.

    Thanks,

    More of the outdated plugin issue and possibly a theme issue, not sure. The best thing is to set up BuddyPress and check everything out using bp-default theme without other plugins activated. When everything’s doing as expected, only then do you change to custom theme and add on plugins (only those which have been upgraded to current WP/BP versions). That way, you’ll know when anything goes wonky and can fix it asap. Only my 2 cents.

    @mercime now i understand what you meant, i did try the BP default theme, no luck. I may need to revert to my backup. I have a developer working on the fix now. Any ideas, could this be a BP & WP issue?

    @mercime yes sorry that is a typo. I did deactivate it with no luck. I also deactivated BP and reactivated it with no luck. How do I change to bp-default?

    @mercime

    @fmeroney just to clarify, you mean you updated to WP 3.3.2 and WP 3.2.2 was just a typo, right?

    Looks more like Buddypress xProfiles ACL plugin needs to be updated. If deactivating xProfiles ACL doesn’t cut it, change to bp-default to see if issue is corrected.

    So I updated WP today to 3.2.2, thank god I backed up before.

    So it seems my profile fields have disappeared. My Tabs are still there, but I cannot edit the fields because they are gone? When i look in buddypress the fields are present and my tabs are present.

    Im running:
    Wordpress 3.2.2
    BuddyPress, latest
    BuddyBoss theme
    uddypress xProfiles ACL plugin

    You mean the description field ?

    That’s tougher. How good are you at php ?

    afaik – you need to modify the
    /themes/your-theme/members/single/profile/edit.php

    You won’t see a form field for ‘description’
    BP uses bp_get_the_profile_field_type() to show fields.
    So you need to do an ‘if’ on the bp_the_profile_field_input_name()
    And then use javascript to limit the number of chars allowed – lots of examples of this online.

    Hello all

    I am trying to test the latest version of BuddyPress. Everything works perfectly.
    I bent on changing the profile with the addition of additional fields (age, city, color etc. ..)

    I would like to display this data in a new page (in more than BuddyPress profile) but I’m trying the methods I know of no avail.

    Here’s what I tried in a page:
    http://pastebin.com/rUie7QpZ

    Yet by changing the profile page of native BuddyPress information are displayed well.

    I guess it must be a wordpress loop problem but I hold.
    I looked in vain in the codex.

    Can you help me on this one, it would be really nice.

    Thank you in advance to you all

    Thanks Paul, I’ve been able to add the extra fields as suggested and displayed them on members page using echo bp_member_profile_data(‘field=the field name’); in members-loop

    Hello all. I have simple questions regarding the OOB BP installation with respect to users registering for the first time on my site. I just can’t seem to find what I’m looking for, so please don’t think I haven’t done my due diligence. I’ve finally “inferred” through no “overt” statements that BP users are indeed WP users.

    Here are my questions, with some prefacing information:

    Wordpress requires “x” parameters (or information) when a user registers for your WP site.
    BP, out of the box, only has “Name” has a required parameter under “Extended Profile Fields”.

    When a user registers for the first time on my WordPress site, what actual information will they be required to enter? For example:

    1. Will I need to create custom fields that include the required information for a regular WordPress user? Or does BP include that already, and it’s just not listed there?

    2. If it’s listed there, can anyone point me to any moderate to full documentation on front-end or back-end documentation on how users and user roles and such work? I can work with either. I’m not all that worried about database schemas, but I can infer the front end information from it. I’d just really like to find a place that can give me a full wiki of information, rather than having to jump from the codex to here, and not be able to find what I need, then go to buddydev.com and not find what I need there, then search in google.

    Much appreciated in advance.

    Thanks all!

    There’s no member/xprofile exporter compatible with BP 1.5.5 at this time. There’s the outdated https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-export-users/ but it’s good up to WP 3.1.4 and BP 1.2.8 only which a plugin developer could check out and should revise to be compatible with BP 1.5.5.

    You can probably start off by exporting the tables from your database: wp_bp_xprofile_data; wp_bp_xprofile_fields; wp_bp_xprofile_groups and wp_bp_xprofile_meta but the best bet is to have a developer set this up

    Can anyone help with this please?

    Hey all,

    I need some help tracking down a plugin or a solution.

    I have BuddyPress on my site and all is well. I have made custom Profile Fields for users to fill out, however this is where my problem lies.

    I want to be able to view all the information that users input at one place, like a spreadsheet for example. My company site could grow into the 100,000+ member range and I can’t go continually visiting every members profile to update their data into my Member Registry.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Nate

    Is there a reason why you don’t want to use BuddyPress’ Profile Fields? You wouldn’t have to write any code. (wp-admin BuddyPress > Profile)

    Hello all, I’m a newbie in the world of php. I’m want to create a profile using buddypress members. That means I have to add more fields like age, gender, country e.t.c to wp_user in the database. I’ve figured out how to add the fields to the database. Now, my question is “how do I write the php code in member-loop so as to make it display on members page. The default ones available are bp_member_name(); or bp_member_name();. How to I make age, country, phone e.t.c display.
    Thank you.
