BuddyPress.org

I’ve deactivated plugins just in case there was a conflict in the admin side .js but still no luck in trying to move existing profile fields to another group. Any ideas to reset or export/import Extended Profile Fields so we don’t lose anything.

I also tried unsaving and saving the Component setting for extend profile fields to see if that would jar anything. no luck.

I want to take this RSS feed http://www.rssweather.com/zipcode/30096/rss.php , or something like it,
and recreate it using the zipcode from the user profile field %field_9 field_zip-code alt”%

But, I can’t get it to work. I want the weather to show up in a bottom widget area unique to the users zipcode field from their profile in Buddypress.

Anyone know how I can do this?

I think it is failing to pull the user’s zipcode field setting because the RSS feed is from weather.com and not my domain.

Any ideas?

Hello! Working on some new theming strategies for BP 1.5 and I was wondering what the correct way of referencing specific meta_data for use in a custom template:

xprofile_get_field_data();

seems to be the right way to go, but I can’t seem to get it to work.

`
$user_id = bp_loggedin_user_id(); //current logged in user
$field = ’19’; // the ID of the field referenced in table wp_bp_xprofile_fields
$major = xprofile_get_field_data( $field, $user_id );
`
This doesn’t quite seem to be working any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I created three field groups, each with a couple of fields added in Network Admin. At my site, I selected Profile>Edit and completed one of the three added field groups. Then selected Public where only that field with the completed information showed up. Fantastic! Then Profile>Edit and changed one of the other field group’s field values. Then back to Public. Both field groups displayed. Great. Then Profile>Edit and “cleared” one of those two recently completed fields, and saved. Then back to Public. That “cleared” field group’s name still displayed even though, it actually had no value to display (no field or field value was displayed).

The behavior should be that if the field group has no “completed” fields; that is, no text in the text area, no checkbox selected, no radio button selected, etc, then the field group name shouldn’t show up in the Member’s Public tab. Is the previous statement correct?

I added some custom registration fields to my user profiles (so, during registration, the users have to enter some extra info). How do I HIDE some of these fields in a user’s profile?

For example, I may ask for a user’s phone number during registration …. but I don’t want ANYONE except our forum admins to be able to see the phone number. So, I need to hide the phone number everywhere (except the WordPress admin).

Can anyone help me do this?

NOTE: I don’t think this is relevant … but here is some info on my site and BuddyPress: I was told that BuddyPress uses BBPress 1.5 for it’s forums. So, I was told I should run BBPress 2.0 separate from BuddyPress (and disable the forum component).

Hello,

I’d like to display some personal fields on registration page (like real name, adress, etc…): these informations shouldn’t display on public profile page, but should be accessible for the admins. Is it possible to do that ?

I thought about integrate some traditionnal WordPress fields on Buddypress registration, or make some fields hidden on profile page, but I don’t know how to make and I’m not sure about these solutions…
