BuddyPress.org

Thank you so much guys but I think it will still be time consuming to add each mark before and after every city name ( or is there a way to add them automatically too? )

I think adding a feature like that to buddypress core would be fantastic, like an option to add a list of names instead of one by one.

@bphelp, thanks a lot for the help, but I tried adding that line and it didn’t do much :S Here is what my code looks like without the line, where should I add it? Also, just to be sure I am modifying the right file, i took the members-loop.php in the folder of the current theme I am using, is that correct?

<?php

/**
* BuddyPress – Members Loop
*
* Querystring is set via AJAX in _inc/ajax.php – bp_dtheme_object_filter()
*
* @package BuddyPress
* @subpackage bp-default
*/

?>

<?php do_action( ‘bp_before_members_loop’ ); ?>

<?php if ( bp_has_members( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘members’ ) ) ) : ?>

<div id=”pag-top” class=”pagination”>

<div class=”pag-count” id=”member-dir-count-top”>

<?php bp_members_pagination_count(); ?>

</div>

<div class=”pagination-links” id=”member-dir-pag-top”>

<?php bp_members_pagination_links(); ?>

</div>

</div>

<?php do_action( ‘bp_before_directory_members_list’ ); ?>

<?php cc_get_displaymode(‘members’)?>

<?php do_action( ‘bp_after_directory_members_list’ ); ?>

<?php bp_member_hidden_fields(); ?>

<div id=”pag-bottom” class=”pagination”>

<div class=”pag-count” id=”member-dir-count-bottom”>

<?php bp_members_pagination_count(); ?>

</div>

<div class=”pagination-links” id=”member-dir-pag-bottom”>

<?php bp_members_pagination_links(); ?>

</div>

</div>

<?php else: ?>

<div id=”message” class=”info”>
<p><?php _e( “Sorry, no members were found.”, ‘cc’ ); ?></p>
</div>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php do_action( ‘bp_after_members_loop’ ); ?>

@Henry thanks a lot for the help, but I’m really a beginner, I just opened members-loop.php and sincerely can’t find any instruction on how to add custom profile fields, care to explain?

Thanks a lot again!

! 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…

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.

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.

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.
