BuddyPress.org

I have installed both BuddyPress and SimplePress to my WordPress site: http://www.iqmindware.com

I have not enabled a ‘Forum’ page for SimplePress nor have I set up any groups or forums in SimplePress. I am trying to simply use BuddyPress, where I have created different user groups, and a profile field setup.

However, when people register (and about 40 have registered), using the Profile form I set up in BuddyPress (I have screenshots), I can only locate them in SimplePress under ‘Users – Member Information’. The fields that I set up in BuddyPress do not appear here, but their e-mails and names do.

Also, the registration profile form tells you after filling in the details that a confirmation e-mail will be sent to your e-mail, but no e-mail arrives.

Any idea what is going on?

Hi,
I installed buddypress 1.5.1 on wordpress 3.2.1
when I click edit on user profile, it redirect me to “profile/edit/group/1”
and the page say it’s not available.
if i change the the URL manually to “profile/edit/group/2”
I can see the edit page with the fields I created.
is any one know why is that and how to fix it?
thanks

I’ve got the request to be able to slice and dice xprofile data…. Basically they want a form that has all the profile fields as multi selects (they are all closed ended questions) and as the select the info it returns back people with those selections…
Any ideas? anyone got something like this (even the basics) done?

Thanks

Greetings,

I’m having trouble adding more profile fields to the register page. I’m adding the new fields in the admin section, but they are not showing up on the register page itself. I had trouble finding a solution so I decided to make a post here.

I hope someone can help me with this.

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, I apologize in advance if this is a repost but I was unable to find the answer in the forums. I am running BP 1.51 and I have a question about the information displayed in groups/members. By default, the information displayed is the member’s user name and the ‘joined’ data.

Is there a way I can display a user’s data from custom user fields rather than their user name. I was unable to call upon my custom profile fields.

I’ve been poking around in theme/groups/single/members.php

I tried using the following line of code with no success:

bp_member_profile_data( ‘field=First Name’ );

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone. I’ve looked through the forums to find an answer but haven’t found it. Currently in my members directory, for each member, it displays the profile picture, primary field (which i set as first name) and their active time. Does anyone know how to change this so it displays other fields in the member directory?

I’m running on WP 3.2.1, installed as a directory in root, fresh install, BP version 1.5.1, using a customized theme, have not modified the core files, a few custom functions, and no bbPress installed.

Thanks in advance everyone.

I have been trying to figure out how one go about displaying member’s profile fields on the members loop. I want to display a city and province profile field that members fill in on the member’s directory page. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all!

This didn’t used to happen in BP 1.2.x. but when you have required profile fields in BP 1.5, the fields get prefilled with the first option in the list when you visit the registration page. They are already filled in with those first options as opposed to how it used to be with a

This isn’t a big problem in itself, but I use a ‘search profile fields’ plugin which needs to be able to search by say just one profile field.

The way the profile fields now behave (prefilled) means that ALL of the available fields are always filled with the first option. I need there to be the line above the options which was displayed as

Therefore people can just select one option from one prodile fields to search, leaving the rest displaying

I hope this is clear, it’s quite hard to explain.

I’m sure this will cause others problems though. Users will no longer miss required fields but it would be very easy for them to overlook the prefilled option and end up with wrong info on their profiles.
