That really would interest me too. Ideally showing the different group names as headings for the sections if there is any data in any of those fields.

@untilthen5 my PHP knowledge is adequate to zero , so I didn’t find any solution , I was studying @slaffik ‘s plugin to find something what should help us to display those fields , with my PHP knowledge I gave it up immediately.
Slaffik’s Group Extras plugin is great , even greater now with adding unlimited group pages, it miss only function to memorize the sets of fields for all groups (you should create for every single group those sets of fields over and over again , @slaffik promised to finish it too).
boone’s & modemlooper’s code is very quick and for me perfect solution because I don’t need the sets of fields. I need only 1 set of 10-15 extra fields on first Group creation step page which will better describe every group . Fields thanks Boone and Modemlooper we managed to get to insert into database, so group admins should see them now , fill them out , but without displaying those fields for public is now at least for me unfortunately useless .
It looks like displaying those fields in groups doesn’t seem so simple as we were thinking (the way of displaying the fields in profiles as we know is very easy). @modemlooper said after he will finish his other works he has also intention to finish this small but very useful plugin – I suppose he meant with displaying all those fields in the template so I am going to wait when someone of them will come with fully working plugin.

That’s what I want to know too , I hope that displaying group’s custom fields is a similar as the displaying profile’s custom fields code in the members-header.php. I will study it further.

php if ( $data = bp_get_profile_field_data( 'field=State' ) ) :



State/Region: php echo $data



php endif

Thanks modemlooper , type=”checkbox” will not be enough I guess , adding the options works the same as for dropdown menu? I will study it farther , your little plugin works nice for me at the moment, I don’t need nothing else than the correct code to display those custom fields within the groups(groups-header.php) , if somebody can tell me the code for groups to display it for a public I would be very grateful :

This is the code for the profile field “State” I use.

State/Region: 

Custom fields for groups should work on similar basis I hope.

type=”checkbox”

When I’m done with next version of BP mobile I’m creating a plugin that does what the profile fields does

For displaying member profiles fields I use this code in member-header.php:
php if ( $data = bp_get_profile_field_data( ‘field=State’ ) ) :

php endif
(the code will be broken because I have forget how to insert the code on this site)
How can we display group custom fields in group-header.php?

For displaying member profiles fields I use this code in member-header.php:

How can we display group custom fields in group-header.php?

oops, missing global. Making this into a plugin but might need some help. i’ll post it on git hub. Think we need same extra field functionality as profiles

`function group_details_markup() {
global $bp, $wpdb;`

You can specify profile field groups like links or interests. The default group of fields is called Base but you can change it to something like info or about

@Stigmartyr – no need to thank me, Paul did the heavy lifting.

I’m not 100% sure but I don’t think that any tables get created when a new group is made, rather the existing tables are populated. Usually any tables to be are created are done initially when the mod is first installed.

If you’re trying to add more fields to the group profile like Paul said: you probably want to make a plugin that does this. Unfortunately like you I’m merely dangerous with php.

Oh, that should be working. At least, I know it does in the latest version (1.5). We use 1.5 on this site, and I got an email and a notification (in admin bar) from you

Try this:

`<?php
bp_profile_field_data( ‘field=Country’ );

?>`

You need to provide a bit more info about what version of BP and browser

I don’t understand what you mean
