Hello, I’m having hard times with the content profile filters, it’s very annoying, perhaps it can be helpful if we can choose what fields exactly to enable this for, It can be enabled for simple: (male/female) field to find all females or males on network, but in a profile field like: (about me) it’s a nightmare.
can someone help me disabling this option at all as proper configurations are not available?I need to show certain profile fields outside of a members profile page. I have created a page to show the members of a specific group. The members of the group would like certain profile fields visible for each member.
Any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks
I’m setting up a BP installation and using the AD Integration plugin in order to auto-create WordPress accounts when people log in with existing Active Directory credentials. While the AD Integratration plug-in autofills in the new user’s login name, First Name and Last Name, these fields don’t carry into the user’s Buddypress profile.
Is there any way to do this? Even better, is there any way to automatically import other info that can be retrieved via AD authentication (title, phone number, etc.)?
Hello,
I’ve run into something strange.
I’ve created custom profile fields and noticed that “select-box” field types aren’t being found by the search.
Yet if I create “text” fields then the content is being searched and found when performing a search in the members-loop.Does this mean BuddyPress can’t read content in the profile fields if they aren’t a plain text value? The content in my select box is made up of very simple texte (lawyer, doctor, politician, revolutionary, dictator, geek…).
Has anyone encountered this? Do you know of a solution?
Thanks a bunch,
C.Topic: edits not showing up?
Super easy one folks.
for some reason, my edits are not showing up.example:
BuddyPress Default: Single Post (single.php) – editing through WP editor. so I know it’s the right page.
deleting huge chunks, adding test text. Nothing.profile-loop.php
see other post -> http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/restructuring-profile-fields-from-table-to-divs/am I not editing the right pages?
am I not viewing the right pages?
kind of baffled and quite ready to pull out my hair.what am I missing here?
Thank you!
Topic: Tag cloud from profile data
Hi everyone-
I’m trying to create a tag cloud from items listed in the profile fields (for example, “Personal Interests,” which would have stuff like “tennis, traveling, running,” etc.). Right now the code I have goes through the xprofile fields data table and pulls out everything with the specific field id relevant to the group and puts it in an array, using spaces and commas as delimiters. (Don’t get me started on the dolts that write “I like to take long walks along the bike path with my 19 kids” as their tags. Or separate them with period, or semi colons, or write them on separate lines…)It then counts the number of users that have that specific tag, but ONLY if it’s an exact match… e.g., “running” and “runner” aren’t going to match and will show up as separate tags. (At that point, it does a title on the href search link to list how many users have that tag.) We then list every tag that’s been used on “list all tags” page, but I forsee it becoming a total behemoth and it’ll need to be trimmed somehow.
The xprofile field data is kind of clunky, and I haven’t figured out a way to put up a tag cloud. The Groups tags plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-tags/) seems to work OK, but I can’t translate it to the profile field tags.
One thought from our production team was to use facebook-like functionality that “suggests” tags when you start typing them in, which would lead to a cleaner tag cloud.
Anyone have any ideas on how to better the profile tagging process? It’s driving me nuts, and I’m seriously thinking of deactivating the next dumb user that writes out a run on sentence in their Personal Interests text area.
Thanks in advance-
KCTopic: Extended profile query
Hi,
I’ve been looking for a way to do this and haven’t been able to find one. I want to place certain extended profile fields in different places on the user profile/display differently depending on their value.
More specifically:
How can I query to find the value of a specific extended profile field?
Thanks!Topic: profile field value!
Hi
I want to make some system to post a specific field of a user profile to another website (as action) and show up their schedule!
so the question is how can i get access to for example a select box value?
for example if user selected 1 in that select box how can i get that?
just like $_POST[“fname”];
what should i specify this “fname” to? i mean what will it be in profile fields?Oops… my comment about “Required” fields is a bit (a lot?) misleading
Users will not be able to save their profile settings until all required fields are filled out… that’s what I meant by “trapped”
