I just tried BP Profile Privacy. It’s not working with the latest BP release, isn’t it!?
So maybe another idear?I’m webmaster for Working Writers of Wisconsin (http://www.workingwriters.org/), a small non-profit group of freelance writers. Right now, we have 18 specialty pages on our WordPress-based site (right-hand column) that are currently hand-coded HTML. I’d like to make them dynamically generated so I don’t have to hand edit them all. I’ve done some research and it seems like BuddyPress would be the most useful tool for me to allow our members to edit their own information and for me to craft specialty pages that are dynamically generated from the member profile information.
However, I have some basic questions that I haven’t been able to get answers to yet but that a BuddyPress developer might be able to help me with.
I’ve tinkered with BuddyPress on my sandbox site, creating profile fields (including all checkboxes in the categories section of our membership form (http://www.workingwriters.org/join-us/ [Note that the membership application form is currently a disaster but I’m holding off fixing or replacing it until I get these BuddyPress questions answered. It used to work fine before I converted the site to WordPress]) . Each member should be able to revise his/her profile information. However, I have some concerns:
1. Given that this site is for members to allow themselves to be contacted, much of the information added to their profile should be visible to site visitors. However, for safety concerns, members do not want their home address visible (yellow on http://www.workingwriters.org/BuddyPressProfileFieldSetup.png).
2. Other information gathered on the membership application does not need to be visible to visitors but needs to be visible to members and saved to the database. (green on http://www.workingwriters.org/BuddyPressProfileFieldSetup.png).
3. I’d like to make sure there’s coordination of data entered (blue on http://www.workingwriters.org/BuddyPressProfileFieldSetup.png and http://www.workingwriters.org/WordPressAddNewUser.png) so that the membership application form creates both the WordPress user and BuddyPress profile without requiring duplicate entry of information. It seems like in order to register a user must enter the same data in two different places and I’d rather avoid that. Note: I’d like to have them add their password on the registration form.
4. Can there be a separate registration for members versus those just registering to comment?
5. What are the things about BuddyPress-enabled themes that are different from other themes? I created a custom theme with Artisteer and have been quite happy with it but Artisteer does not at the moment support BuddyPress. I read at some point that BuddyPress will work to a certain extent with themes that are not BuddyPress-enabled but wonder what I’d be losing with that approach. I’m hoping Artisteer will release a new version soon that supports BuddyPress because the workarounds I’ve seen require significant modifications of PHP files and I’d rather avoid that if at all possible.
Hi @ all!
There is this one question I’m searching for a long time: How to hide some profile fields?!
I can’t find a solution. E.g. there ist the profile field “country” and I just want logged in users to see them.
I would love to hardcore it until “buddypress” is going to publish a version with privacy settings.I hope that someone is able to help me…
Thanks and all the best

Hello,
I would like to call a specific profile field into a link title; thus, my html would look like this:``
My failed php attempt #1 (if the variable is called “Company”):
“My failed php attempt #2 (if the variable is called “Company”):
“I’m using this post as my guide: (http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/calling-specific-profile-fields-individually/?topic_page=1&num=15#post-27943).
Where have I gone wrong?
Environment: Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP
WordPress 3.0.4.
BuddyPress Version 1.2.7
====================
I have an extended profile with 5 groups of information fields. If a user is created in the admin or in the signup page, they are able to go to their profile, and click the “edit profile” link which points to http://www.domain.com/members/username/profile/edit and it WILL redirect automatically to http://www.domain.com/members/username/profile/edit/group/1 and allow for normal editing.The problem is this: I have imported 3800 users into the database directly with what I believe is all the proper fields filled in, but when those users try to click on “EDIT PROFILE” the redirect to http://www.domain.com/members/username/profile/edit/group/1 doesn’t work and it sends them to the home page.
I’ve been asked to add custom fields to BP Register (that also show up in Profile)
The client is using PlatformPro with the PlatformBase themeThe new fields need to ‘cascade’ based on first selection.
So I can use ‘Profile Field Setup’ to create fields, but not to populate them.
Using ajax/php/mysql, I built a standalone version outside of WP:I’m looking for any hints/tips on possible ways to proceed.
I’ve seen the posts re Child themes.
Can I use a Child theme of PlatformBase to accomplish the task?
Or… ?Topic: Custom Fields in Profile
Hi,
I am trying to check if a custom field I’ve added to the BuddyPress “Edit Profile” page will come up with custom data.
This is the PHP Code I am currently using – but at the moment it is just printing out the field name, rather than showing the echo “test” bit.
<?php if ( bp_the_profile_field_input_name() == 'field_17') { echo "test"; } ?>hello, I run wp3.03+bp1.26 in localhost, Why my profile -> edit profile just can edit Name (required)? I see buddypress.org can edit Name (required), About Me, Current Location. How to do that? and if I want add more info inqeury fields, I shall edit witch page file? or add a plungin? Thanks.
Hi all,
can somebody give me a hint if there is an easy way to remove validation of user joining groups (so admin does not have to accept but they will be instantly joined)? Even better would be a function that I can use to automatically join users in certain groups depending on what they select in their profile custom fields, e.g. a user choosing that he is a student will be automatically joining a certain group.
Thanks,
Miri
It would be great if there was a way to easily add country names separated by commas which produced a dropdown box for users to select their country in the profile section. As it stands right now it would take about 3 hours of typing in every country name separately using the dropdown selection option to create this function in the profile fields setup.
@stefrusso The heck with it — I just went into the database and hand-edited the description field in table wp_bp_xprofile_fields.
I need to display a list of the profile fields i have defined in my sidebar so that a user can click on one and be shown all the users that have selected that field for their profile. Is this possible?
It basically so that all users have selected skills, such as photographer, bricklayer, sound engineer etc. Then when somebody comes to look for a specific skill from a worker they would click say, photographer, and then all the photographers will be listed.
I have tried to mod Buddypress Profile Widget for Blogs but this doesnt seem to work for the latest wordpress and the profile fields are listed in a broken format and cant be linked
thanks

Been wanting to exclude users with the role ‘subscriber’ from the member directory.
I’ve been looking around for this for a while. I think I may have found it!
Editing the members-loop.php like so:`
-
<?php while ( bp_members() ) : bp_the_member();
$user = new WP_User( bp_get_member_user_id() );
if ( $user->roles[0] != ‘subscriber’ ) :
?>
`
Correct me if I’m wrong… !?
Topic: WordPress 3.0.3 error
Hello Everyone and Happy New Year!
I really need some help here.
I am using WP3.0.3 and Buddypress 1.2.7, but there seems to be a bug because when I change my profile in WP I get the following errors which completely destroy the functions of the theme I am using:
Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ‘save_extra_profile_fields’ was given in /home/suneva/public_html/anewvideo/tester/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 395
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/suneva/public_html/anewvideo/tester/wp-includes/plugin.php:395) in /home/suneva/public_html/anewvideo/tester/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 890
Does anyone have a solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Topic: If Profile field has data?
I have this code and the fields are NOT required:
`<?php bp_member_profile_data( 'field=City' );
bp_member_profile_data( ‘field=State or Province’ );
bp_member_profile_data( ‘field=Country’ ); ?>`I’m wondering how to create the code for adding a comma(,) before the field IF the field has data
So my out put would be: City, State, Country or City, Country
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
