BuddyPress.org

If it helps, I did a clean wordpress installation (5.5), with the twentytwenty theme, and the only two plugins were Loginizer and Buddypress. PHP is 7.4

I still got the same result. It ran, didn’t create any errors, but it didn’t join the user to the group.

Sorry I meant buddypress 6.2, WordPress 5.5 Not sure how I fix this post.

Hi Shane,

thx for the quick answer.

The description I am talking about is seen here ‘http://example.com/members/USERNAME/’. The link pointing to ‘/wp-admin/profile.php#description’ is just below it.

By short description do you mean Biographical Info?

yes.

I don’t think there is another plugin which creates this short description (bio info). The description field is a standard wordpress profile text field, isn’t it?

How could I place a BuddyPress profile field on the profile start page ‘/members/USERNAME/’?

I figured it out… it was pretty simple in the end as all I did was change ‘role” to ‘role__not_in’ while putting the role I do want to show in $role

/**
 * Exclude Users from BuddyPress Members List unless they have specific WordPress role.
 *
 * @param array $args args.
 *
 * @return array
 */
function buddydev_exclude_users_by_role( $args ) {
    // do not exclude in admin.
    if ( is_admin() && ! defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) ) {
        return $args;
    }
 
    $excluded = isset( $args['exclude'] ) ? $args['exclude'] : array();
 
    if ( ! is_array( $excluded ) ) {
        $excluded = explode( ',', $excluded );
    }
 
    $role     = 'roletoshow';// change to the role to be shown.
    $user_ids = get_users( array( 'role__not_in' => $role, 'fields' => 'ID' ) );
 
    $excluded = array_merge( $excluded, $user_ids );
 
    $args['exclude'] = $excluded;
 
    return $args;
}
 
add_filter( 'bp_after_has_members_parse_args', 'buddydev_exclude_users_by_role' );

Changed to Twenty Twenty and the profile settings shown.
