    Open member-loop.php and you will see instructions on how to add custom profile fields such as Location. It is quite straightforward to do.

    ! UPDATE !

    I just found a great plugin for for doing custom menus in BP even there is a never version coming shortly.

    However, I still need to figure out how to disable Settings->General while still being able to keep Settings->Notifications.

    Any help would be great appreciated!

    Thanks…

    Hey,
    try this one:
    Buddypress Xprofile Custom Fields Type v 1.5.5.5 https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-xprofile-custom-fields-type/

    You can rename the field you need but even much more. You can add your custom fields and descriptions of these new fields. You could organize new fields in new groups – just like the “Base” is a group of fields. Install the plugin and you will get some option called “Profile Fields” in (Admin Panel -> Users).

    Luck! 🙂

    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

    The reason why i need to customize the membership directory template is

    a, You have to click on All members when you get to the memership directory page instead of automatically showing all the members

    b, Since i have some extra profile fields showing in the membership directory it becomes distorted and fields are all over the place

    Thanks for taking the time to read this!

    Hi Hugo thanks for the reply! I had a specific buddy-press child theme previously. You are right after more research the sidebar issue seems to only happen on the membership directory page which is customized by including some key profile fields.

    Do you have any advice on how would I customize the membership directory page with 2012 and bp 1.7? I had previously just edited the members-loop.php but now it seems not to be working anymore?

    This is mainly happening when I put a URL in the text boxes. It will remove the field from the user and it is getting quite annoying. Could someone please help?
    EDIT: I just left a whole group blank and clicked save, now the entire group of fields are missing.

    Option 2 sounds viable, depending on your audience I hear there are “points” type plug ins where members gain points if they do things like upload an avatar, follow you on twitter etc…there is also a plug in I saw that gives a profile completed status type bar, as you complete the different profile fields, the bar fills up…does that make sense?

    To use it elsewhere you would need to get the value of the field and pass it to wp_oembed_get. This is not tested:

    $val = bp_member_profile_data('field=youtube'); // in members loop
    $val = xprofile_get_field_data( 'youtube' , $user_id ); // outside members loop
    
    $embed = wp_oembed_get( $val, array( 'width' => 400 ) );
    
    echo $embed

    In my previous example I have a provider array. These are the names of your profile fields not the actual service.

    Sorry, I’m going to need a little more guidance. I have more than two fields that need to use the oEmbed. I assumed that the filter you created were for specific field IDs but that doesn’t seem to be the case at all. At this point only one of the fields is embedded the rest are just links.

    Also, is this suppose to work with the bp_profile_field_data()? My main purpose on this support thread is to get the profile field to embed outside of the profile page. It’s awesome that it’s embedded in it now but it seems I’m missing something.

    Thanks for your help! Looking forward to getting this figured out.

    @jancbeck Maybe with a few coding that would be possible…

    Still looking for some guidance.

    I’m not sure why an x_profile field is not treated exactly like meta data. It seems to me, this maybe specific to my project, that this would be very valuable. The Xprofile Custom Fields Type Plugin is very useful and is helping extend the functionality.

    Alas, videos are still not embedding via bp_profile_field_data()

    Any suggestions are welcome.

    @maddogmcewan great tip – thanks! Unfortunately though, it allows neither file uploads nor are these fields searchable. I’m investigating using ACFs repeater field in combination with a front end form but this is also far from being perfect.

    Bingo re elephant.

    While it’s easy to change by editing the register template, the why-is-it-there question seems worthy of a trac ticket.

    But I think we are missing the elephant in the room (except for @shanebp). Why would non-logged in visitors want to see the “This field can be seen by” text on the registration page?

    I think this whole area needs some further thought.

    @henrywright-1 As you can probably see, my ‘huge mis-understanding’ was quite easily done :} yep and I meant no offence in the phrase ‘huge mis-understanding’ 🙂

    How this is interpreted depends very much on what you want to achieve. If you are a developer in the process of designing the public member profile page (displaying their profile field values) then you would think of visibility to mean the field values. However if you are in the process of designing the edit profile page (displaying the input form fields) then you would think of visibility to mean the input fields.

    As you can probably see, my ‘huge mis-understanding’ was quite easily done :}

    @henrywright-1 ah you were labouring under a huge mis-understanding of what this meant, as Boone says it’s pseudo privacy for display of users details on their profile – if admin allows users to configure that given field – it’s NOT anything to do with whether the field is hidden on registration view.

    However there are still issue with how this works with reg form or it needs a good review.

    This has definitely come up, the text label jogs my memory.

    It may make sense that one had change link on pre-registration if the value selected was being passed along with the registration and setup of the user_meta and if the admin setting allowed users to change the field value but as I doubt that’s in fact possible and fact Boone has said it’s simply meant to impart the status of that given profile field visibility then the change select needs to be removed.

    Regardless of what it refers to, why would
    “This field can be seen by: etc. ” under each Base field on the register page
    and a ‘change’ link be visible on a register page to a non-logged-in visitor?

    That’s what I meant by it failing the bp_current_user_can() check.

    Yep, i see it. According to Boone, it refers to the field value. Slightly misleading text i must admit.
