Hi,

If you want to go with the contact form plugin then there is no need to select a registration page in BuddyPress amd have to use shortcode on the page and then create a button on header(as you like) and link it to the register page.

Now, if you want to save data in xprofile fields then have to do custom coding for sure.

Thanks

Yes, this is how it works.

It will need customization to map WordPress fields to BuddyPress xProfile fields.

You can check this plugin https://profilepress.net/downloads/wordpress-buddypress-extended-profile-sync/ as well.

Thanks

It will be custom work. You can add this code snippet in your child theme’s functions.php to achieve this:

add_filter('bp_core_signup_send_validation_email_message','ps_user_data_to_email',10,2);
function ps_user_data_to_email( $msg, $user_id )
{
  $user = get_user_by( 'id', $user_id );
  if(!empty($user))
    $data1 =  xprofile_get_field_data('your_first_field_name',$user->ID);
    echo 'Your Profile Field Name'. ' : '.$data1;
    $data2 =  xprofile_get_field_data('your_second_field_name',$user->ID);
    echo 'Your Profile Field Name'. ' : '.$data2;
}

You can do this for all the profile fields by just repeating the code to get data3 data4 like I did for data1 data2 and obviously you have to use your profile fields name in place of ‘your_first_field_name’, ‘your_second_field_name’ and ‘Your Profile Field Name’.

Thanks

Please check this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-xprofile-custom-field-types/.

They are already adding profile fields with select2 js support, mentioned in the features as well.

Thanks

Hi,

It’s just a style issue. Please paste the following CSS:

.profile .profile-fields td.label {
background: #f5f5f5;
color: #707070;
}

Hopefully, it will fix your problem.

Thanks

Hello,

Please check with this plugin https://github.com/wbcomdesigns/bp-modify-member-directory-header once if it is working fine for you or not.

You can follow this thread https://buddypress.org/support/topic/adding-profile-fields-to-members-directory/ as well.

Thanks

I’m having perhaps a related issue with messages. When I switch to the old theme the messages work fine. Here is my original post:

Greetings!

I just installed BP version 3.1.0 with WooCommerce StoreFront theme on WP 4.9.8 hosted on WPEngine.

When I go to a users profile and click private message, it takes me to the messages tab, but the compose fields do not show. The URL appears to have the proper query string with the users name. Example: compose?r=julesyoga

Could caching be preventing the page from loading perhaps?

Do you know any reason why the page isn’t loading in compose mode and the name isn’t being populated.

wp version: 4.9.8

Thanks so much!

In Users>>Profile Fields there is the default profile group – Base, any profile field in this group will be on the registration form. If you create another profile group, the fields in their will not be shown on the registration form.

Displaying Extended Profile Fields on Member Profiles

Ya, It will need to create the script to export data from OSSN and after you will also need to create import script for BuddyPress. For User profile and extended fields, there are some plugins which can populate BuddyPress using CSV.

Why not write a plugin? Here’s one, for example, that provides third-party xProfile Fields:

BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types

You can add fields via Users/Profile Fields, captcha would normally be added via a plugin. To change the text what I normally do is create a custom language translation file using Poedit.

It’s just a blank page, the content is populated by the BP Template file – plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-nouveau ( or bp-legacy) /members/register.php and this creates the structure depending on what additional profile fields you have added in Users/Profile Fields.

@dggerhart I was able to register for your site without a confirmation email and post “test” comment to your general group. Enabling email confirmation to register will help. Using a checkbox for your Privacy Policy GDPR compliance, is needed and will help too. I would give the Honeypot plugin a try on your staging site (disclaimer, I don’t use, and it’s old) but what it does is pretty simple so it could be ok. Admin notification of new users will help. Manually checking email addresses and questionable profiles (if you have more profile fields) will eliminate the obvious spammers and most are obvious. You can manually approve new users if that won’t be overwhelming. On a different note, you might want to block your dashboard access and you have some html tags displaying. Also a registration menu item (it was hard to figure out how to register) are some things I noticed too. I hope you find this helpful

Perhaps the tag is created by ‘Autolink’ ?

You can disable Autolink by going to wp-admin > Users > Profile Fields > your field and look for ‘Autolink’ in the right-side column.

Then you could write a filter function to create a custom tag.

Or you could not disable autolink and write a filter function to change the text in the tag.
