Topic: Can’t Edit Extended Profiles
I’ve installed Buddy Press and the X custom fields plug in, but I don’t get the Users > Profile Fields option in the Dashboard. I’m completely befuddled as to why I can’t find it… have I done something mind bogglingly stupid? 🙂
Hello,
Sorry if this is a silly newbie question, I’m making my own site at the moment, and I want to create a profile page where there are seperate fields which can be searched and saved. Each entry would be saved with date and time, a little like a diary or journal. Hopefully, this information can be made available to all other registered members, kept private, or emailed to a third party if required.
It’s a bit like a journal to keep track of things. The sharing option is there if people want to share with their community, or if they need to email or make their notes visible to someone else.
I did install BuddyPress yesterday (9.1.1), but didn’t really have a clue where to start – I may be diving into the deep end with this one! WordPress version is 5.8 and my site is http://www.inspireyourdog.com – it’s a work in progress. 🙂
How would I go about this? Where would I start?
I suspect it may be simpler than I think it is!
Thanks,
Paul.
Hello,
I try to show profile fields on profile page even if it’s empty.
If you have a solution, because it only appears when a value is filled in.
Thanks you for your help 😉
Hi – is there a way to import a CSV to CREATE new xprofile fields? (looking to create, not import data — rather than manually adding xprofile fields in WP admin)
if there isn’t a CSV/plugin approach for this – can anyone refer to a SQL database approach tutorial and do it there?
Thanks
I’m trying to allow users to edit certain WordPress metadata fields on the frontend, namely contact and social information such as website, twitter link, etc. This functionality is outlined e.g. here https://bpdevel.wordpress.com/tag/wordpress/, however it only partially seems to work.
I’ve added 4 custom fields to the profile:
– Bio [type: Biography]
– Website [type: WordPress Text Field: Website]
– Twitter [type: WordPress Text Field: Twitter]
– Twitter [type: WordPress Text Field: Instagram]When I fill them out on the frontend, only Bio and Website are correctly stored to the user-meta table, Twitter and Instagram content seems to be lost. I can however edit them in the WordPress backend and they get correctly displayed on the front-end profile.
I’ve managed to synchronize them by updating them manually via code using update_user_meta() on save, but I feel like this defeats the point or shouldn’t be the way to go if the functionality is there on the admin menu.
Or am I doing something wrong here?
Hi there, im having a big problem with the default required field in xprofile, and i already search for a lot of people having things similar and is all about the same but no solution. The “extended” profile of buddypress has a required field that is the same as the username in wordpress, so it has problems because if you change the username but leave the “name” of the xprofile empty automatically has an error. Why dont you you remove that unique field from de xprofile and let everyone make the fields they want, that thing is causing problems in every theme. i hope you understand , i can make a site for anyone to check this.

Hello,
in our registration form we have two areas with the following fields (all required):
Account details (WordPress):
– field “user name”
– field “email”
– field “choose a password”
– field “repeat chosen password”Profile details (BuddyPress):
– field “name”
– field “first name”
– field “last name”Actually we don’t need the fields “user name” (WordPress) and “name” (BuddyPress).
We want to use only first name and last name (no user name, name, nickname, whatever). Is that possible?
With that we want to make the registration easier to our users and we also want to sort the members directory according to the last name. Is that also possible?
Best regards
Good morning.
For several days I have a problem that consists in the possibility of extracting from the site I am creating the data entered by users in the registration / registration form, in which I have added several fields with the BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types plugin.
I have tried several plugins and all of them only allow you to extract the base fields. I am wondering if the add fields plugin allows you to add other fields as base fields why do the plugins I have tried do not recognize these fields as base fields?
The creator of one of the plugins used told me that the additional fields do not end up in the database or are not considered as metadata because buddypress uses its own tables.
So how can I do to extract user data into a single csv or excel file?
It is strange that this function does not happen as a basic function of buddypress …The extraction plugins used are:
LH Buddypress Export Xprofile Data
LH Export Users to CSV
Import users and customers from CSV
WordPress Users & WooCommerce Customers Import Export (BASIC)I hope there will be some users who can help me.
Thank youIs there a plugin outhere that can show/hide fields on edit profile just like “member types prof” but on edit profile??
Is this even possible with buddpress? Help
BuddyPress 9.0
This is my scenario. I want only the user to input his/her username and email upon registration. Later he/she can update his/her profile once registered. My Problem is I cant see the other field group in the profile, which have all the needed fields, only the base field group is there.
I am following this documentation, https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/guides/modifying-the-registration-form/. Is there additional steps to do?
I am going to create a public profile directory website using BuddyPress .
Users will register, then complete their profile, admin will check the information and manually approve them for the directory listing.
but the problem is, I don’t want to waste my time checking incomplete profiles, also I don’t know when they will complete their profile, today or a few weeks later.
so I need a submit biodata button under BuddyPress save button. after filling the required fields, the user will be able to click this submit button. admin will be able to see them separately from incomplete profiles.
I don’t know how to do this. please helpHi all,
Experienced in web design but new to WordPress. Working on a theme which relies on buddypress.
I would like to create a C.V. type area on the user’s profile. One section of this area is a list of qualifications. Currently, users can list their qualifications in a textarea.
Instead, I would like to allow users to fill in three fields in that section. So they have ‘qualification name’, ‘result’ and ‘link’. I would also like to allow users the option of uploading an image of their qualification.
I can’t work out where to begin. I downloaded the BuddyPress Custom XProfile Fields plugin, but I can see that this only allows single-field entries.
I have also found this guide: https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/guides/displaying-extended-profile-fields-on-member-profiles/
But, again, it only shows how to display a single field.
So here there are two problems. The secondary one is that users must be able to create new instances of this qualifications fieldset dynamically, though I expect that the solution to this will become apparent when I’ve solved the main problem.
I need to know how to combine fields, so that when a user enters qualification name, grade and link, it is all stored together, or somehow related in the database, so that a single reference can be used to display each field relating to that particular qualification.
Hello,
I’m working on a mobile app to interface with our BuddyPress 9.0.0 website via the BP API. Our website has some xprofile group fields of the “checkbox” type, each group with a set of “options” which the user can set to be true or false. For example, there is a group called “Pets” under which the user can select one or more of the specified check boxes such as “Dog”, “Cat”, “Cow”, etc.
I am having trouble trying to update this type of “checkbox” field using Postman. The update works fine for fields of type “textbox” and “selectbox”, but doesn’t work for the “checkbox” type.
The endpoint is “/buddypress/v1/xprofile/<field_id>/data/<user_id>” (POST operation, here the field_id I am using is the id of the parent group field)
The JSON in the body of my call is
{ “context” : “edit”, “value”: [“Dog”, “Cat”]}As mentioned before, if I try the same post call with a field of type “textbox” or “selectbox”, it works fine, but if I post to a “checkbox” field it just clears the existing data and does not set it to the new values.
Any ideas what I may be doing wrong here?
