    Hi,
    I’m using WordPress 4.9.8, BuddyPress 3.0, BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types 1.0.6 and Conditional Profile Fields for BuddyPress 1.2.4.
    I created a a group of profile fields with only one field that is be a drop down list with a list of categories. A second group with fields that depend on the category selected in the first group, and a third group that the fields depend also on the category selected in the drop down list. When I go to the users profile edit and select a category from the drop down list, I can complete the info for that category. That works as a charm. But my intention is that the user could select more than one category.
    When I select the second category I can fill all the fields and save, but the first category disappears. Is there any way to display two or more tabs with custom fields?

    Thank you

    Buddypress V.4.0.0
    Wordpress V.4.9.8

    My website is an adult company that has not launched yet. So with respect to those viewing this thread I will not share a link to site. But I am using the BeSocial Theme.

    My Problem is:
    I create a dropdown profile field. Save it in admin. But when a member edits on the front end, the selection is not saved. Nothing shows in database. Doesn’t show on their profile etc. Its as if they never made a selection even though the site says the save was successful.

    I am at a lost on what is going on. It is also happening on multi-select box. Other forms are saving though.

    Only the dropdown style fields are not saving.

    Please help anyone

    Screw it. I tried to post the code in various ways, but I don’t have time to spend trying to post A SIMPLE COMMENT FFS.

    Go to this link and use the code specified in the file.

    I hope it’s still available years later when someone stumbles across this comment thread.

    BuddyPress forums need some sort of fix for this crap. What an incredible waste of time and energy, just to post a helpful comment that contained code. I’m not a freaking spammer. I mean, if your forum software is needing to be THAT sensitive to fight spam, make us do captchas or some crap to verify we’re ‘human.’

    Ya know, I get why spam filters exist, but when they make a site UNUSABLE FOR ACTUAL USERS then your technology is worthless.

    Anyhow…lol, end of rant. Here is the link:

    I hope this solution helps others as much as it’s helped me. <3

    OH guess what…? 😀 Figured it out.

    I have a solution that so, sooo…..SSOOOOOOO many other people have been looking for, and I’m elated to say I’ve found it.

    Been cruising Stack Exchange, various WordPress plugin support threads, installing plugin after plugin, reading blogposts made by developers, comments made by disillusioned masses….I mean, it’s endless.

    But THANK GOD I found a solution!

    So it turns out that the code that BuddyDev mentioned was not to blame for the 500 error I mentioned in my intro. It was actually due to one of the two plugins that is recommended in BuddyDev’s tutorial (and they are now fixing that bug). 🙂

    I figured this out as I tried to reproduce the error while activating plugins in a different sequence.

    The first time I did this, I’d had BuddyPress disabled when I’d installed both plugins. I’d also already put the code mentioned in their tutorial into my bp-custom file. I then activated BuddyPress, and the site failed.

    This time, I had BuddyPress already activated, then installed and activated one of the two plugins BuddyDev recommended to use in the tutorial…and all was well. THEN…I installed the second plugin. And upon clicking ‘Activate’ the site failed again. NOTE: on the second attempt to reproduce the 500 error, I hadn’t put the code from the tutorial into my bp-custom file….

    And according to BuddyDev, even before I tried to reproduce the error, the bp-custom code I was using was sound.

    So when the site failed upon my attempt to reproduce the error, I knew: that plugin was to blame.

    Then, I found out more about that plugin…it is designed to be used for users to have extra fields to fill out upon signup, fields that would show in their Member Profile. And I have Member Profiles disabled. Wa-la!

    I then asked BuddyDev if I needed the plugin that failed…and THANKFULLY they said, ‘no — not needed for what you want to do.’

    WHEW!! 😀

    So, a summary:
    – Use custom code in bp-custom (pasted below)
    – Use one plugin in particular from BuddyDev
    – Do not use another plugin recommended by BuddyDev

    The plugin to DEFINITELY use, that was listed in their tutorial: ‘BuddyPress Member Type Generator’…that affects the ability for Webmasters to set custom member types AND an avatar specific to every custom type created! 😀

    The other plugin that was recommended in that tutorial, that is NOT needed to change user avatars for custom member types…not ever, as it has nothing to do with avatars — it was merely recommended in their tutorial so people could manage user profiles: ‘BP XProfile Member Type Field’

    SO. If you want to have a different default avatar for different member types, then you will need to use the ‘BuddyPress Member Type Generator’ plugin. Not the other one.

    Steps to take:
    1.] Download the ‘BuddyPress Member Type Generator’ plugin from BudyDev

    2.] Read their tutorial (I’ll paste a link below in follow-up comments to this comment)…do everything EXCEPT install the ‘BP XProfile Member Type Field’ plugin — it’s not needed for assigning an avatar via custom member type; it just is recommended in their tutorial to use so you can manage user fields 🙂

    3.] Use the code I’ll also paste below (in the follow-up comments) — modify it to your site’s name but insert your site name where I typed ‘sitenameprivate’…etc.

    4.] For creating more avatars with custom member types in the future, you’ll always have to update that same code in the bp-custom file…via FTP/SFTP; tbh that process is easy as pie once you realize how to do it

    5.] For making your life easier with switching out avatar images for member types without having to re-do the bp-custom file: just save over the image in your media library that is used for that particular member type…so the path is the same and your code won’t need to be changed

    Simple, yet difficult to find.

    Thank GOD FOR BUDDYDEV!!! <3

    Hi,

    i am creating a website with BP and WPML. On the member-loop, i need to add some extend profile fields.

    I created a custom member-loop and add a field like this :

    bp_member_profile_data(‘field=Zones de travail’);

    This field “zone de travail” is correctly translated everywhere except here, no way to get the value in the second language.

    Is there a tip to get it?

    Thanks for your help !

    Hello, Buddies.
    I’ve got a weird issue here: I’m running a WP4.9.8 site running with BuddyPress 3.2.0. I’ve also setup a custom registration panel using “Membership Pro Ultimate WP”. This is correctly transferring the First and Last name from the registration screen into the WordPress default First Name and Last Name field.
    As I am primarilly using custom extended profile fields, I have written this script to fill in the extended fields as well:

    function update_extended_fields( $user_id ) {

    $user_info = get_userdata($user_id);
    $first_name = $user_info->first_name;
    $last_name = $user_info->last_name;
    $current_first = bp_get_profile_field_data( array( ‘field’ => ‘First Name’, ‘user_id’ => $user_id ) );
    $current_last = bp_get_profile_field_data( array( ‘field’ => ‘Last Name’, ‘user_id’ => $user_id ) );
    if ($current_first==””) {
    xprofile_set_field_data( “First Name”, $user_id, $first_name, $is_required = true );
    }
    if ($current_last==””) {
    xprofile_set_field_data( “Last Name”, $user_id, $last_name, $is_required = true );
    }
    wp_update_user( array( ‘ID’ => $user_id, ‘last_name’ => $last_name ) );
    //xprofile_set_field_data( “field_42”, $user_id, $company, $is_required = false );
    }
    add_action( ‘user_register’, ‘update_extended_fields’, 10, 1 );

    This is all working perfectly fine … until I edit the profile using buddypress on the frontend. After editing and saving it, the user’s WordPress Last Name gets lost. The extended field is still being displayed correctly.
    Any idea why this is happening?
    Thanks a lot!

    Create with “Gravity form user registration” a form that fills the fields fields of buddypress.

    Hello,
    I am experiencing Gravity form a pretty powerful plugin at first glance. But a tool can be powerful, if you do not know how to use it, it does not really help. I am in charge of a website that already had buddypress but did not have gravity form. Visitors could already register and complete their profiles. But the registration form was too limited I think. While searching I discovered “Gravity form user registration” which allows to register too.
    I would like to know how to fill the buddypress fields through a form gravity forms? Thank you in advance for your assistance

    Hi Everyone, Two Parts to this question.
    1) The “About Me” that is showing up is a random statement with “View” that goes to a 404. This is the current placeholder text, “He is one of those people who would be enormously improved by death. (H. H. Munro (Saki)) View”

    How do I either remove it, or have it as an editable field that the user can change?

    2) The Social Icons don’t link to anything.

    Image Shot

    Backstory.
    The About Me text and the social icons didn’t appear until I began editing the Profile Fields.
    I have 3 groups: Primary, Artist Info, Business Info.
    Each Group has an About section: About Me, Artist Bio, Company Bio
    The Artist and Company Bio groups each have Facebook, Twitter, Insta, etc…

    I originally had the Social names the same for each group then renamed Twitter to something else in the Business section – could it be that since I had Twitter Twice, it messed up the links?

    I also updated the info in the User Profile and Extended and it didn’t change, and the temporary About Me text is still there. I don’t see anywhere the About Me text is in the back end, only on the profile page.

    Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    – Peter

    Hi,

    That is a default profile field and you can not change the visibility of that. But if you will create other profile fields then you will be able to change their visibility easily.

    Thanks

    Thanks, with your advice I was able to add the fields to the users edit profile page, but I dont see a way of getting the information to appear on their profile page when others view it.

    Can you advise?

    Hello, what I’m looking to do is add info about a member from their profile fields just as job title or location, on their “member card” when viewing the page of all members.
    Instead of job title, we have a field for “Talents” and would like members to be able to list that and their location.
    Curious also, if that could be a toggle option, to display or not, or if it will have to be all or nothing.

    Hopefully, this shareable link to view a screenshot of the page will work. The members ‘last active’ info is no longer listed, as I recently wrote in to get help to hide that.
    Thank you in advance!

    One option would be to take a look at BP Profile Search with this you should be able to specify which fields get searched.

    I am worried about the strange problem I am facing when user registers. My registration page contains three profile fields from “Base” called Base name, gender, DOB and name.

    I noticed frequently users get successfully registered with no update to any of the above mentioned fields. These fields are defined “Required”. I am worried how these fields are not getting updated in database because the registration will not be allowed unless user enters these fields. Is this a bug in buddypress? Or what else otherwise?

    If that plugin creates WP users, then BuddyPress will find all 200 members.
    And:

    • You will need to create BP profile fields and data for all those members
    • You could write a custom script to do that
    • You do not need to export / import a .csv

    Yes, it is valid for legacy template.

    Also in place of #input you have to use (.profile-edit #field_number).

    ‘field_number’ represents fields like field_1, field_2 so you have to just replace field_number with real field id. You can find it in inspection like this: https://prnt.sc/l61ajf

    Is it possible to block certain words / characters in the Profile edit boxes of text fields or multiline text fields?

    Also is it possible that if someone enter such values then the administrator should be notified?

    The word / characters that I do not want people to insert are : @, dot , any numerals,

    You can add profile fields for them and name them on social media accounts like Facebook Twitter and all then members will see them on their profile.

    Thanks

    In that case, you can put it in your bp-custom.php or your theme/child theme’s functions.php

    
    /**
     * Start buffering the visibility template.
     */
    function bitboy_start_buffering_visibility_template() {
    	ob_start();
    }
    add_action( 'bp_custom_profile_edit_fields_pre_visibility', 'bitboy_start_buffering_visibility_template', -1 );
    
    /**
     * End buffer and discard.
     */
    function bitboy_end_buffering_visibility_template() {
    	ob_end_clean();
    }
    add_action( 'bp_custom_profile_edit_fields', 'bitboy_end_buffering_visibility_template', 1000 );
    
    

    It will remove the visibility options completely.

    Best Regards

    Hi,

    I found that those links are generated from the plugin Custom Profile Filters For BuddyPress and it only works on profile. So to get the same data with the link on members-loop.php we need to print fields like this:

    $data = bp_get_member_profile_data( 'field=Expertise' ); 
    echo '<a href="' . bp_get_members_directory_permalink() . '?s='.$data.'">'.$data.'</a>';

    Hopefully, this will help you.

    Thanks

    Hi Prashant, I should have maybe started with listing following information:

    1. Which version of WordPress are you running?
    WordPress 4.9.8

    2. Did you install WordPress as a directory or subdomain install?
    Subdomain

    4. Did you upgrade from a previous version of WordPress? If so, from which version?
    I installed the latest.

    5. Was WordPress functioning properly before installing/upgrading BuddyPress (BP)? e.g. permalinks, creating a new post, commenting.
    Yes

    6. Which version of BP are you running?
    Latest Version 3.2.0

    7. Did you upgraded from a previous version of BP? If so, from which version?
    No

    8. Do you have any plugins other than BuddyPress installed and activated? If so, which ones?
    BuddyDrive, Custom Profile Filters for BuddyPress, Gravity Forms, K Elements, Really Simple SSL, rtMedia for WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress, Slider Revolution, What The File,
    WPBakery Page Builder

    9. Are you using the standard WordPress theme or customized theme?
    Customized.

    10. Which theme do you use ?
    Kleo Theme from seventhqueen

    11. Have you modified the core files in any way?
    Yes I have, but always in the child-theme.

    12. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php?
    Yes
    <?php
    // hacks and mods will go here
    define( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );

    ?>

    15. Which company provides your hosting?
    Compbell

    So to answer your other questions, I added a new Profile Field with checkboxes. Indeed you have to select it and that’s why I can’t just wrap it in an anchor tag because I need the fields to be clickable separately.

    In Profile fields the Expertises are individually links. In my Members page all the Expertises ar put in a Paragraph. But I’d like them to be individual links such as in Profile page.

    See Screencast here: https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cF6QiCYqw6

    Thx!
