BuddyPress.org

It is possible but not recommended. BuddyPress already has member profile fields. You should use that and it is internally supporpted by buddypress, just make sure you enable the “auto-link” in the profile field while editing the profile field.

If you are open on exploring, the WPLMS theme has members directories built on react and they are well connected with BuddyPress profile fields, example : https://demos.wplms.io/members-directory/

I’m assuming you’ve tried the basic troubleshooting in https://buddypress.org/support/topic/when-asking-for-support-2/

It really depends how your database skills are, you can have a look in the YOURTABLENAME_bp_xprofile_fields table to see if these fields are duplicated there.

You could then search the YOURTABLENAME_bp_xprofile_data table to find which of these isn’t in use and delete.

You’ll want to backup everything first obviously before making any changes.

That doesn’t appear to address the issue. I want to be able to assign them to a particular role (User Role Editor), in this case, I created one called “Community Outreach Coordinator” and I simply want them to have permissions to edit user and extended profile fields.

In that section, any fields under Base (Primary) will appear on the reg form.
Click Add New Field Group and put your profile fields in that Group and they will not appear on the reg form.

I get the errors while enabling/disabling the components, I’m using the Buddypress newest version: 6.1.0

I see now. From looking at the plugin code it could use some cleaning up, although its still fine to use.

If you’d like to have more control, and you know how to code, you could override the buddypress/members/single/profile/profile-loop.php (in BP Nouveau) and create a loop with tabs instead.

It should be easily doable with js modifications or using pure CSS using radio inputs.

Here’s an example – use the js from something like https://codepen.io/liav80/pen/KzpWzy and alter the loop in profile-loop.php (as an example) to be

<?php if ( bp_has_profile() ) : ?>
<div id="wrapper">
	<?php
	while ( bp_profile_groups() ) :
		bp_the_profile_group();
	?>
		<?php if ( bp_profile_group_has_fields() ) : ?>
			<?php bp_nouveau_xprofile_hook( 'before', 'field_content' ); ?>
					<?php
					while ( bp_profile_fields() ) :
						bp_the_profile_field();
					?>
						<?php if ( bp_field_has_data() ) : ?>
							<div data-tabname="<?php bp_the_profile_field_name(); ?>">
                        			<div class="tabs-inner"><?php bp_the_profile_field_value(); ?></div>
							</div>
						<?php endif; ?>
						<?php bp_nouveau_xprofile_hook( '', 'field_item' ); ?>
					<?php endwhile; ?>
			<?php bp_nouveau_xprofile_hook( 'after', 'field_content' ); ?>
		<?php endif; ?>
	<?php endwhile; ?>
	<?php bp_nouveau_xprofile_hook( '', 'field_buttons' ); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

It should give you a start to change things from there.

Could you elaborate? Currently this is an already built in function in Buddypress.

Go to your wordpress dashboard followed by clicking on Users > Profile fields > click on the button called “Add new field group” and you got a new tab you can fill out with profile fields.

I figured it out I had the if required fields go to page checked in Profile Builder Tools checked. But this users required fields were all okay, but it checks all the fields regardless of roll so I can’t use that. Thank you for replying.
