@ Manoj

thanks for answering me on your site… I\’ll move my issues to this thread

while the \”Full Name\” field cannot be changed, I was able to change it by duplicating the url to change a different field…

example:

when you edit any of the xprofile fields, the url shows somwthing like this:

http://mysite.com/wp-admin/?edit=profile_pageID=2

i just changed the \”2\” to a \”1\” and hit refresh…that allowed me to change the \”Full Name\” field to \”first name\”

my install is very customized, so I simpley can\’t \”roll back\” to a fresh install…

I will try changing the profile name back to \”Full Name\” and see if that works….

(more to follow)

@ theBigK

it doesnt look like you can add any additional information currently, however this plugin isn\’t super-complex, so you could probably add the functionality to add more user data by adjusting the PHP code (not sure how though)

you may also be able to export your SQL file in a | \”pipe\” delimited fashion

something like this:

\’

SELECT * FROM TABLE

ORDER BY ID INTO OUTFILE \’out.file\’

FIELDS TERMINATED BY \’|\’;

\’

I dont know much about this, but google it and Im sure you\’ll find something

1. congrats on the members

2. I don’t believe it has been done yet.

Depending on your mysql abilities, you may find it easier to just write a quick and dirty php file with a mysql connect to show members. The overhead that wordpress and buddypress would add to this process wouldn’t be worth the minimal gains of the buddypress functions.

But if you don’t know much mysql, then you may be forced to do it inside of an admin plugin.

Here are a few quick and dirty sql lines to get you started:

find all users:

find all users, and show full name (from profile fields)

Thanks for the effort…please create a plugin for it. Also is it a ebay widget,so if can one get lastFM widget?

thank you

I’ll try to set a little plugin or something later, but for the moment you can follow this method, it’s the Fishbowl81’s code adapted for ebay editor kit:

Edit your bp-xprofile-filters.php by placing the following code after the custom buddypress filters:

function bp_profile_ebay_display( $field_value "", $field_type = "", $field_id = "" ) {

{ // clean up input

return "<script language='JavaScript' src='http://lapi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?EKServer&ai=lwa%7Bfwvw%7Esa%7Cwsyw%60&bdrcolor=CCCCCC&cid=0&eksize=1&encode=UTF-8&endcolor=FF0000&endtime=n&fbgcolor=FFFFFF&fntcolor=000000&fs=0&hdrcolor=FFFFFF&hdrimage=1&hdrsrch=n&img=y&lnkcolor=75179C&logo=3&num=5&numbid=n&paypal=n&popup=n&prvd=9&r0=4&shipcost=n&si=".addslashes($field_value)."&sid=BP&siteid=0&sort=MetaEndSort&sortby=endtime&sortdir=asc&srchdesc=n&tbgcolor=FFFFFF&tlecolor=FFFFFF&tlefs=0&tlfcolor=000000&toolid=10004&track=5336248810&watchcat=63850&width=350'></script>";

}

}

function bp_profile_ebay_groups( $group_name "") {

if($group_name == "My Ebay listings"){

remove_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 2);

add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'bp_profile_ebay_display', 2, 3);

}else{

add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 2, 3);

remove_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'bp_profile_ebay_display', 2);

}

return $group_name;

}

add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_group_name', 'bp_profile_ebay_groups', 10, 1 );

Also it depend of your css code but it can be useful to put this in your member theme’s stylesheet (base or your custom stylesheet).

Then create a profile field group named “My Ebay listings” and a profile field like ebay username and you’re done!

@keston, I like your ebay plugin. Can you share it?

@keston, I like your ebay plugin. Can you share it?

It did the same thing to me.I fixed that by deleting bp-music.php and puting the code directly in bp-xprofile-filters.php.I don’t know if it’s a good issue but it’s currently working, thanks Fishbowl81.

I’ve also adapted the code to display user’s ebay listings: http://lesitedelasneaker.com/bp/users/members/admin/profile

(Sorry for my english)

quick question:

I uploaded the BP-music.php file to the mu-plugins folder

and the styles/css for the entire site went crazy

…almost like the “remove filter” removed everything from everything…

I had not yet created a group called “Audio Details” when i uploaded the file…

is that why it didn’t work?

it pulls from your text a keyword and gets the player from amazon

one more hint plz…. can you give an example of what would be entered into the profile field…. does it have to be a music file?

so, http://mywebsite.com/mysong.mp3 ?

I’m confused as to where the audio file is located/uploaded/pulled from….

does the user upload a file? or simpley enter a link to an audio file? or enter artist names/song name and it’s pulled from amazon?

(thanks)

Actually it’s pretty easy to see what profile fields are called in the DB – Check the wp_bp_xprofile_fields table and you’ll have an ID associated with each field which you should be able to use to call them.

You’ll have to modify the member theme functions that display the fields in the profile. That gets generated in: /buddypress-member/profile/profile-loop.php

by the function: bp_the_profile_field_value() in /mu-plugins/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-templatetags.php

There’s a filter in there that you can hook: echo apply_filters( ‘bp_the_profile_field_value’, $field->data->value, $field->type, $field->id );

So that you can detect these specific fields and change what gets generated by bp.

“you can do that making a plugin sure”

i said

For plugins i mean doing the thing you’ve thought

It can’t be done right now, but you can do that making a plugin sure

You can currently use the bbGroups plugin by BurtAdsit to do this with group forums. He’s paused integration for other Extended Profile fields and non-group forums for now, but that is the closest integration available currently.

Take a look over at http://code.ourcommoninterest.org/

Science Content!

The problem with doing it any other way right now, is that without grabbing and caching forum specific BuddyPress profile info and putting it into a convenient user_meta array, it would require an additional query into the database for each user that you want each piece of info for. So lets say you not only want the avatar, but their fullname, and another piece of profile info that you’ve made up. That’s three queries a person, per post, per page. A page with 10 posts just gave you 30 extra queries. The bbGroups plugin works great to counter act this, but I’ve been the primary beta tester experiencing hiccups and Burt has patiently been trouble shooting with me to figure out why. The past week life has sort-of halted my ability to test, but it is a priority for me to address.

Unfortunately not yet, but I suspect this will be something that someone will come around and make, if not to be introduced into the core later on.

Currently the search is global, searching all fields for one particular phrase. This could probably pretty easily be filtered and narrowed down via a plugin, but currently none exists.

To do this you’ll have to replace the current bp function xprofile_add_signup_fields() with your own. In bp-custom.php create a new function that renames the current function like so. Just copy the whole thing over and rename it.

function my_xprofile_add_signup_fields(){

<body of existing bp function>

<your mods to the avatar area>

}

remove_action( ‘signup_extra_fields’, ‘xprofile_add_signup_fields’ );

add_action( ‘signup_extra_fields’, ‘my_xprofile_add_signup_fields’ );

We need to get Andy to changed the member theme not to show private profile fields, and then use those private profile fields in custom boxes to diaplay stuff. This would be a great way to ask for zipcode, and build a custom module to show a Google Map, or ask for birthday and just show a count down timer until their birthday.

Where I don’t expect this to be in the 1st version, but would be nice to get the details hammered out in early post release versions.
