I am using BP Private pages to keep the site private until members register. Now I want to require new members to complete their profile information before being granted further access to the site. I have several tabs of information including photos built for the xprofile fields. The ideal situation would be that the user is automatically granted access when they complete all the required fields on the xprofile.
Has anyone done this? How?
I did some looking late last night. Perhaps it was too late?
I’m looking at the default profile-loop.php in 2.x. It’s not clear to me where the decision for what fields to display, and which how to display, is being made. In one of the functions?
We’re doing our own set of custom visibilities and are trying to be conscious of how BP thinks. For example, if the groups empty is made in that part of the loop then we probably need to come up with something else since the biz rules we’re using have more or less abandoned stock BP visibility.
Am I making sense? Just looking for deeper insights on how the profile display loop works. The basics are fairly obvious- sans the question above – but something more granular would be wonderful.
Thanks so much
mfsGreetings!
In short the need is to have some profile fields that are “Management Only” and also “Seen by others but added/ edited by Management Only.” For example, a list of skills. We want Management to vet the staff member and check off their skills, but only allow those skills to be displayed within a profile (and can’t actually be edited by that person). I hope my explanation is making sense.
We’d also like to be able to query by some of those (if that detail is helpful).
1) So I’m looking for a way to add to the Default Visibility list. Is that possible?
2) Or can I add a custom taxonomy (?) to the fields and then work my own magic that way?
3) Else, what about being able to get a field’s Visibility setting and override that? For example in profile-loop.php as I’m looping (in pseudo-code): “If wp_role == “management” and visibility == “me only”) then allow edit). and if role != management then only display the values – no edit.
I think we can live without “Management Only” but we do need “fields management fills out and everyone gets to see”.
Finally, this is my first BP project. My WP powers are pretty good but my BP close to zero. Please type slowly π
Thanks
mfsp.s. Also, is there was way to create profile fields with code instead of via the Admin UI?
Hi there.
I have WP 3.9.8 and buddypress 2.01 ( with Xprofile ) and using the sweetdate theme from seventhqueen ver 2.6.3 together with a child theme.Is there any method you can help me with to add the field description below the field label. currently the descriptions are below the desired answers required for the profile field and can be somewhat confusing when the field is quite long.
I did wonder why it was done this way as most forms would explain the topic and question before the required answer.
What I would like to achieve is that all fields in all Groups created in Xprofile have this change and not just the “base Group” used for registration ( group/1/#main ) As I have created 8 groups and each have approx 10 fields in each. The fields are a combination of “text” ” checkboxes” “Dates” etc.Thank you in advance
Hi guys
I’ve seen this topic before, but in quite an old thread.
I have created some multi-line text boxes in Profile Fields, but when the user completes a form with line breaks, these are not appearing in the front end.
When I inspect the HTML, the breaks appear, but they do not show up to the user. Here is how the html looks and how the front end renders:


I am running BuddyPress 2.0.2 with WordPress 4.0, running Reverie Theme.
How can I get the line breaks to appear?
Thanks,
Ian
Hi there,
I would like to point an issue I face, using the Buddypress Component “Extended Profiles”.
First of all, I just leave the first required field only, which is the display name.
In registration forms the user is able to add the display name but trying to edit it using the setting options of its profile he can’t.
Furthermore, every field I add through extended profiles options is not editable, using the setting options of each user’s profile.
Any ideas?
Thank you very much
