BuddyPress.org

Solved: this is the final version I got on superslider (and added a css class “third” where I removed the max width)

Then, those are great news!
My site is still under construction and I was surprised when all hidden data suddenly went visible. That will be really bad for whole community. I think it’s better to rely on this future feature of BP and wait. Many thanks for this info. Anyway, I’ll inform plugin author about updating or fixing plugin.

@modemlooper Yes, there are options:

Anyone
Logged In Users
My Friends

and enforce one of those values. The problem is, I need some fields to be visible only to admin or hidden from other members.

Example:
First Name (visible to anyone)
Last Name (visible to anyone)
Birth date (let’s user decide who will see this field)
Passport No (visible only to admin, cause it’s sensitive data)

In plugin I mentioned above, that worked. Now, when I install that plugin, “only admins” option appears but doesn’t work and I’m looking for alternative.

Thanks.. I managed to show custom field on user profile.
Now i want to show custom fields on members directory page..
Which file i have to edit?
Thanks..

So no one has used the xProfile fields with Woopra stats?

Hi @mercime

So close now…

Take a look at: http://www.liveanddangerous.co.uk/wptest/members/testy/profile/

I’d like the background colour for the navigation menus and the profile fields to be either black, or better still, transparent.

Is this possible? I’ve looked over the style sheet etc, but can’t find the function for this. If I view the source code for the page above, I can see the instruction for the background to be ‘rgb(254, 254, 254)’, but… can’t find that instruction anywhere in the css.

If I can fix that, then… I believe… we’re done.

Thanks,

Ronnie.

Sure thing @modemlooper. The code below will look for all the custom fields that a user has filled in, compare them to what should be visible for the currently logged-in user and then loop and display the forum reply user’s data. Instead of simply looping the default titles and data of the xprofile fields, I do a custom switch/case so that I can format each field individually for more control.

`
$user_strAllFields = get_user_meta( bbp_get_reply_author_id(), bp_get_user_meta_key( ‘bp_xprofile_visibility_levels’ ), true );
// get all the completed user fields for this poster
if( $user_strAllFields != null ) :
$user_arrAllFields = array_keys( $user_strAllFields );
else :
$user_arrAllFields = array();
endif;
// get all the fields that should not be displayed for this poster
$user_arrHiddenFields = bp_xprofile_get_hidden_fields_for_user( bbp_get_reply_author_id() );

// loop through all the poster filled-in fields
foreach( $user_arrAllFields as $field ) :
// exclude the ones that should not be displayed
if( !in_array( $field, $user_arrHiddenFields ) ) :
// turn the ID of a field into its object
$obj_field = xprofile_get_field( $field, bbp_get_reply_author_id() ) ;

// depending on the field name, customize the display
switch( $obj_field->name ) :

case ‘Location’ :
$user_location = xprofile_get_field_data( ‘Location’, bbp_get_reply_author_id() ) ;
if (strlen($user_location) > 0 ) :
echo ‘

Location: ‘ . $user_location . ‘

‘;
endif;
break;

endswitch;
endif; // !in_array( $field, $user_arrHiddenFields ) )
endforeach; //( $user_arrAllFields as $field )
`

@modemlooper thanks! I used a combination of your tips and info I found here https://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2012/03/16/profile-field-visibility-in-bp-1-6/ to make this work for me. I now have any custom field in Buddypress show up in my forums loop and it shows up conditionally as well for the appropriate users only.

Aha. Problems.

So, following the advice of @modemlooper I got this working just fine. Anything created under Buddypress custom user fields can display fine in the bbPress loops, using something like this:

`
$user_location = xprofile_get_field_data( ‘Location’, bbp_get_reply_author_id() ) ;
if (strlen($user_location) > 0 ) :
echo ‘

Location: ‘ . $user_location . ‘

‘;
endif;
`

However, how do I make sure I follow the custom fields’ restrictions regarding visibility? In BuddyPress we can create a custom field and set its visibility to be either:
1) Anyone
2) Logged In Users
3) My Friends

Furthermore, these fields’ visibility can be allowed to be changed by each user.

So, before simply displaying a custom field for just everyone, I need to run the required checks to verify that it should be displayed for the anonymous/logged-in user. I tried getting a reference to the actual field, like this but the var_dump() doesn’t help me much:

`$user_location_field = xprofile_get_field( ‘Location’, bbp_get_reply_author_id() ) ;`

This is the var_dump($user_location_field):

`object(BP_XProfile_Field)[29]
public ‘id’ => null
public ‘group_id’ => null
public ‘parent_id’ => null
public ‘type’ => null
public ‘name’ => null
public ‘description’ => null
public ‘is_required’ => null
public ‘can_delete’ => null
public ‘field_order’ => null
public ‘option_order’ => null
public ‘order_by’ => null
public ‘is_default_option’ => null
public ‘default_visibility’ => null
public ‘allow_custom_visibility’ => string ‘allowed’ (length=7)
public ‘data’ => null
public ‘message’ => null
public ‘message_type’ => string ‘err’ (length=3)`

Even though I see a couple of public methods like “default_visibility()” and “allow_custom_visibility()”, they don’t really help. Their value doesn’t even change even when I change the field properties in the CMS.
