BuddyPress.org

1. I renamed the second field from ‘Teamgründung bzw. Geburtsjahr’ into ‘year’ – and it works.

2. With the field ‘Bezirk oder Statutarstadt; CH: Bezirk o.ä.; D: LANDKREIS oder KREISFREIE STADT; Li: Gemeinde’, again, it does not work. – Therefore I guess, the problem are blank, points etc. – Is true? Is there a any way to resolve the problem?

3. Is there any way to get displayed the age at any current moment (instead of the year of brith or team fundation, which is inserted into profile fields)?

@ https://buddypress.org/support/topic/modifying-the-member-list/#post-187019:

wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/members-loop.php

To modify this file, you make a copy of it and put it into your child-theme
/your-child-theme/buddypress/members/members-loop.php

I did it, and inserted behind:

<?php

/***
* If you want to show specific profile fields here you can,
* but it'll add an extra query for each member in the loop
* (only one regardless of the number of fields you show):
*
* bp_member_profile_data( 'field=the field name' );
*/

?>

the following code:

				<?php bp_member_profile_data( 'field=Geschlecht' ); ?>
				<br>
				<?php bp_member_profile_data( 'field=Teamgründung bzw. Geburtsjahr' ); ?>
				<br>
				<?php bp_member_profile_data( 'field=Bundesland, Kanton oder Wahlkreis' ); ?>

The first and the third fields are displayed; the second not. – Why and how can I change it?

I decided to test theses instructions – and in general they work.

My registration page has now a new design:

http://1a-spielwiese.de/registrieren/

This result I got using two means:

1st:

I tested with ‘Simple Custom CSS’-Plugin that code:

#buddypress .standard-form #basic-details-section, #buddypress .standard-form #blog-details-section, #buddypress .standard-form #profile-details-section {
    border: 2px solid #8b008b;
	float: none;
  	clear: left;
  	width: 100%;
  	padding: 10px;
  	margin-bottom: 1em;
}

#user-role-section {
  	border: 2px solid #8b008b;
    float: none;
    width: 100%;
  	padding: 10px;
}

#wp_rar_user_role {
      width: 100%;
    }

h4-a {
	color: #8b008b;
	font-size: 11px;
	font-size: 1.1rem;
  	font-weight: bold;
	letter-spacing: 0.05em;
	line-height: 1.9091;
	text-transform: uppercase;
}

.wp-editor-container {
    border: 1px solid #DCDCDC;
}

Finally I will insert it into my child-theme.

2nd:

The relecant section of the register.php with in my reddle-child/buddypress/members-folder is now:

3nd:

Nevertheless I have two questions regarding the design:

a) Why the 100%-width for #wp_rar_user_role is ignored?

b) How can I place the third section (‘Mitglieder-Kategorie’) above the other two sections (or between the other two sections)?

4th:

I recognised as well: Deleting there:

<?php if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) : if ( bp_has_profile( array( 'profile_group_id' => 1, 'fetch_field_data' => false ) ) ) : while ( bp_profile_groups() ) : bp_the_profile_group(); ?>

'profile_group_id' => 1, results in getting not only displaying the ‘base group’ of the xProfile fields, rather all fields of all field groups. 🙂

Questions:

a) How can I get the names (titels) of the different xProfile field groups displayed as well?

b) How can I ensure, that only new members, which choose the user role ‘team’, get displayed the profile fields for teams and new members, which choose the user role ‘fan’, get displayed the profile fields for fans?

I’ve played with various membership plugins and user role assignments, but the more I play, the more combinations I stumble upon and the more customization is required (or additional plugins for mapping and linking fields).

I’m currently exploring Users Ultra out of the box, which seems to do everything I want (minus geolocation), however their documentation isn’t very helpful so I’m waiting to hear from their support staff.

Regarding Geo Mashup, does it have the ability to map a custom profile field (address) to display a map on the user’s profile via shortcode?

The User Pro plugin is also starting to look like a viable option.

So, the following questions remain:

A. How can I make profile fields, which are asigned only to one member category / user role, ‘required’? Cfr. above.

B. Anyone knows, whether there is a function already written, which allows to change or delete the standard user role in WP MultiSite?

C. What is the purpose of the penultimate step of the instructions of @noizeburger? – What have I to check for seeing, whether it works or not?

D. Why does the last step of the instructions of @noizeburger do not work for me? How can I make the member category / user role unchangeable for my members?

@amalsh / @jonaro / @lebearuk / @kamillamonkey and @jeffacubed:

Do you have any idea regarding this issues?

Follow-up:

7th:

Capability Manager Enhanced to define custom user roles, if you’re not satisfied with the default wordpress roles (subscriber, contributor,…).
The first step is to create your user roles

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/resolved-different-profile-types-and-different-user-roles/

As ready implied there: I did this – and it works so far.

8th:

Create a xprofile field (selectbox) with the title “User Role” and name the options “Band Role” and “Fan Role” – in my case. You can call them whatever you want. Place this field in the “base” profile group, otherwise it won’t be shown during registration. Also make the field “required”. In my case the user can’t decide, if the visibility of the field can be changed.

I did it already, when I installed and activated ‘BP Profile Search’-plugin – and it works.

However, to choosed a dropdown menu and the categories ‘team’ and ‘fan’.

9th:

I modified:

?php
function custom_bp_core_signup_user($user_id) {
    $user_role = strtolower(xprofile_get_field_data('User Role', $user_id));
    switch($user_role) {
        case "Band Role":
            $new_role = 'band';
            break;
        case "Fan Role":
            $new_role = 'fan';
            break;
    }
    wp_update_user(array(
        'ID' => $user_id,
        'role' => $new_role
    ));
}
add_action( 'bp_core_signup_user', 'custom_bp_core_signup_user', 10, 1);

into:

function custom_bp_core_signup_user($user_id) {
    $user_role = strtolower(xprofile_get_field_data('Mitglieder-Kategorie (Team oder Fan?)', $user_id));
    switch($user_role) {
        case "Team":
            $new_role = team';
            break;
        case "Fan":
            $new_role = 'fan';
            break;
    }
    wp_update_user(array(
        'ID' => $user_id,
        'role' => $new_role
    ));
}
add_action( 'bp_core_signup_user', 'custom_bp_core_signup_user', 10, 1);

(I omitted <?php, because I created not a new bp-costum.php, rather inserted the code into my yet existing bp-costum.php. I inserted the modified code above the line ?>.)

I did not understand, which effect this insertion should have – but, however, – as far as I see – it causes no harm.

Did anyone understood, for which purpose the above mentioned code is?

10th:

I inserted as well:

//hide the user role select field in edit-screen to prevent changes after registration
add_filter("xprofile_group_fields","bpdev_filter_profile_fields_by_usertype",10,2);
function bpdev_filter_profile_fields_by_usertype($fields,$group_id){

//only disable these fields on edit page
if(!bp_is_profile_edit())
return $fields;
//please change it with the name of fields you don't want to allow editing
$field_to_remove=array("User Role");
$count=count($fields);
$flds=array();
for($i=0;$i<$count;$i++){
if(in_array($fields[$i]->name,$field_to_remove))
unset($fields[$i]);
else
$flds[]=$fields[$i];//doh, I did not remember a way to reset the index, so creating a new array
}
return $flds;
}

into my bp-costum.php – again above the line ?>.

It does not work:

— threre the user role is still changeable:

http://kampfsportlerinnenneuwied.1a-spielwiese.de/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/09/user_role_still_changeble.jpg

— http://1a-spielwiese.de/members/kampfsportlerinnenneuwied/profile/edit/group/1 causes an redirection error. – The redirection error disappears, when I’m not logged in as kampfsportlerinnenneuwied, rather as superadmin.

@ section 5th, part c):

'I guess it’s, because the “fan-question” requires as well an answer; but it is not answered, because that member is a team (not a fan).'

It’s in deed that: When I change the (first) “fan-question” from ‘required’ into ‘not required’ it’s possible to save the answer of kampfsportlerinnenneuwied regarding the team question, and it is displayed correctly in the frontend:

http://1a-spielwiese.de/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/kampfsportlerinnen_answer.jpg

But I don’t want to change the “fan-question” from ‘required’ into ‘not required’.

—-

PS.:

The text of the second “fan-question” was still not displayed; and the text of the 5th question (‘Ergänzende Hinweise zu Deinem Geschlecht’) of the ‘base group’ wasn’t displayed as well:

http://1a-spielwiese.de/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/text_missing.jpg

It was because I deactivated (by chance) ‘Buddypress xProfile Rich Text Field’-Plugin. Reactivating it, both profile fields get displayed again.

My theme is Klein (http://klein.dunhakdis.me/)

BP ver 2.0.2
Theme name OneCommunity
I’m able to create a new field in another group
I saved changes
I installed Buddypress Xprofile Custom Fields Type and if I select for the field type something that offered by this plugin it works fine.

Thank you all,
As ACF doesn’t do the job,
is there any other way to add an edit box to the fields profile as my client wants?
Thanks in advance
I. Lesher

Ya I’m using sweetdate. Definitely a child-theme issue. I restored to base SD and it went away. I’ve disabled all plugins (other than BP) and am deleting functions.php code like 100 lines at a time.

interestingly, I added a 4th profile group, and now this problem only occurs on the FIRST profile group. The second profile group (About) no longer repeats fields.

I know it’s not your job to support this! 🙂 just wondering if anything popped into mind. I have the production site in maintenance mode because if people edit + save their profiles with the repeated fields populated, it’s saving the information doubly as well, which will persist even after I fix this bug. D: eek.

PS.:

I have no problem to access the BuddyPress Settings within the Dashboard (components, pages, settings).

I can as well access to “Benutzer/Profilfelder” (users/profile fields), “activity” and “groups” within the Dashboard.

Yes, I’ve seen the calculator, but that’s not exactly what I am looking for. I want a feature in Buddypress profile fields, that when a woman puts her child’s age or pregnancy week, she could see week by week development information on her profile page. Many baby web-sites have this feature, I was just wondering if BP has something similar.

hmmmm!! Ive deleted the additional fields I added and change first name to full name, I then ran a bogus registration, and its given them a username as it should and then gave them a full name as inserted during the registration process, so fingers crossed it appears to have worked!

Now my next big dilemma is can I change those have already registered, so that their profiles read correctly ?? is there a way that you know of??

Thanks

Hi
“The NAME field in BuddyPress is intended to receive first and last name and replace the two original fields (first name, last name) coming with WordPress.”

Does this mean that If I remove the first name and last name fields from ‘profile fields’ then that should fix the issue?

Thanks
