BuddyPress Non Editable Profile Fields

@danbp
Hi Dan @sbrajesh also has a plugin out now that looks to me like it does the same thing as the one in your link and it is also free to download. Cheers!

BuddyPress Non Editable Profile Fields

Do you recommend I create text/content and install a form plug-in for my ‘register’ page associated with the BPress first before working on adding Member Profile Fields?

@dleit please do not install any form plugin for your “Register” page. Leave it blank as BuddyPress will dynamically add the necessary forms. What you need to do is set up the profile fields. Remember that whatever field you add in the first group of the profile field will appear on the right side of the Reigstration form.

It just doesn’t seem like it will solve the “user registration is currently not allowed” issue.

After you add the member profile fields/group(s) you want for your community, I suggest going to the admin menu Settings > General and Allow Registrations. BP Codex is your friend https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/register-and-activation-pages/

Sorry to answer you with a big laught, it’s not html but php. 😀
You should also find the time to read more attentively the forum, or search by keywords.
in this case: hide xprofile fields

https://buddypress.org/support/search/hide+xprofile+fields/

You’re welcome. Glad you got it. 😉

BP’s xProfile component is not intended to be used as text editor, like the one you use to publish posts.

So far i know, ACF plugin doesn’t handle xprofile fields. But you can use it on Group component.

More about ACF

Yes:

• Settings/BuddyPress/Compenents: Activate ‘Exteneded Profiles’

then:

• user/profile fields/add field – select the ‘field type’ you like

I think the field visibility settings are applicable to the member who is performing the setting.

The suggested way to do what you want would be to make your notes profile field hidden to all non-admin members.

The first step would be to create /wp-content/themes/your-theme/buddypress/members/single/profile/edit.php inside your theme.

You can copy the contents of edit.php from:

bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/profile/edit.php

Then you need to modify edit.php. In edit.php, find <?php while ( bp_profile_fields() ) : bp_the_profile_field(); ?> and add the following immediately after it:

if ( ! current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) && ( bp_get_the_profile_field_name() === 'notes' ) )
    continue;

Note: I’m assuming your field name is notes

Just wanted to follow up…we did come up with a solution for this in case any one else is looking for it.

Full details are now on my blog at Revelation Concept.

function rc_buddypress_profile_update( $user_id ) { 
 
     $admin_email = "YOUR-EMAIL@DOMAIN.COM";
     $message = sprintf( __( 'Member: %1$s', 'buddypress' ), bp_core_get_user_displayname( $user_id ) ) . "\r\n\r\n"; 
     $message .= sprintf( __( 'Color: %s' ), bp_get_profile_field_data('field=Color') ). "\r\n\r\n";
     wp_mail( $admin_email, sprintf( __( '[YOUR SITE] Member Profile Update' ), get_option('blogname') ), $message );
 }
 
 add_action( 'xprofile_updated_profile', 'rc_buddypress_profile_update', 10, 5 );

hi there, ive found something that appears to do the job tonight as i require this to.

You will need to use “xprofile-fields” plugin and then use the wp plugin at https://geomywp.com/ used in conjunctions with their paid add-on found here: https://geomywp.com/add-ons/xprofile-fields/

This is working fine: SOLVED: Limit Members Loop by Profile Fields

@filipmedia it’s got to do with the page template you are using. Your BuddyPress Register page should have the HTML structure of your site’s regular Pages like http://www.geek.hr/suradnja/ but it’s not so. The Register page is within the #footer div when it should be in the #content div. Are you using a Page Template instead of the default page.php for your register page?

Change to Twenty Twelve theme to see how Register page should look like per xProfile fields/groups you added for your community.

I found a way to create a group but i can see the group that i have created.

If you go to the admin page. There will be BuddyPress icon on the top of the admin login.
Hover over the icon and hover over Profile fields/group and then add new field group

Looks like it is achievable but not without its headaches and a considerable effort.

Found this article relating to what you ask, ‘I think’ …

http://alextheafrican.wordpress.com/2012/03/10/how-to-add-an-image-field-to-buddypress-extended-profile-fields/

Though I can not say how, secure/suitable it will be to current Buddypress versions, perhaps ask the guy who wrote it, if it is still a valid solution.

Hi, it’s not possibe out of the box and depending which BP version you use.

This perhaps may work on 1.5.x only:

How to Add an Image Field to Buddypress Extended Profile Fields

I wrote you a code sample: http://modemlooper.me/allow-youtube-embed-in-buddypress-profile-fields/

== why buddypress doesn’t use user_metadata and have a proprietary xprofile table. ==

I believe one reason would be that WP doesn’t have an API for BuddyPress’ more sophisticated profile fields/groups, or something of that nature. At least that’s what I recall a core dev answering the last time that question was asked
