hi @applegateian,

read here how to fetch checkbox,radio and multiselect datas

1) give each check box a unique name
2) create a filter function with your css items around the echo $data.
3) add the filter to a profile action
4) done

@applegateian

You create a new field on profile (ie. title=Amount)
This field is a checkbox type field
You have 4 items to check, so you need to create 4 checkboxes.

The field name called by the function correspond to the title you give to your new field. So you actually have 1 field name and 4 checkbox values.

The example above will output the checked value by the user on the member profile header (bp_before_member_header_meta)

function my_moneytizer() {
if ( $money = xprofile_get_field_data( 'Amount', bp_get_member_user_id() ) ) :
    foreach ( $money as $mon ) { 

	echo '<br/><div class="checkit">';
            echo '<span>Earned today:&nbsp;</span>';
		echo $data;
	echo '</div>';
	}
endif;
}
add_filter ( 'bp_before_member_header_meta', 'my_moneytizer' );

Try first and ask after when you receive some help ! 🙄

in the example, simply replace Amount by Budget and give it a try

The function checks for “Budget” and the “foreach” looks for the checked box. So you will finally only see the checked box value. This data can be styled by using this:

div.checkit span {your css stuff}

@applegateian each checkbox should have a unique ‘id’ which you can use to target specific checkboxes.

Do you have a link to your page with the checkboxes on it?

@applegateian
Have you tried using firefox in conjunction with firebug to target those elements? You could also use google chromes or IE’s dev tools.

@applegateian
I just created a checkbox called “Sign up for our newsletter” and this is what is return when I inspect the element:

<div class="editfield field_21 field_sign-up-for-our-newsletter">

				
				
				
				
				
				
					<div class="checkbox">
						<span class="label">Sign up for our newsletter </span>

						<label><input checked="checked" type="checkbox" name="field_21[]" id="field_22_0" value="Yes"> Yes</label>					</div>

				
				
				
									<p class="field-visibility-settings-toggle" id="field-visibility-settings-toggle-21">
						This field can be seen by: <span class="current-visibility-level">Anyone</span> <a href="#" class="visibility-toggle-link">Change</a>
					</p>

					<div class="field-visibility-settings" id="field-visibility-settings-21" style="display: none;">
						<fieldset>
							<legend>Who can see this field?</legend>

							<ul class="radio"><li><label for="see-field_public"><input type="radio" id="see-field_public" name="field_21_visibility" value="public" checked="checked"> Anyone</label></li><li><label for="see-field_loggedin"><input type="radio" id="see-field_loggedin" name="field_21_visibility" value="loggedin"> Logged In Users</label></li><li><label for="see-field_adminsonly"><input type="radio" id="see-field_adminsonly" name="field_21_visibility" value="adminsonly"> Admins Only</label></li><li><label for="see-field_friends"><input type="radio" id="see-field_friends" name="field_21_visibility" value="friends"> My Friends</label></li></ul>
						</fieldset>
						<a class="field-visibility-settings-close" href="#">Close</a>
					</div>
				
				
				<p class="description"></p>
			</div>

I could see how this could be targeted. Are you inspecting on the edit profile page that has the checkbox’s?
