[Resolved] adding xprofile fields to members directory list items

I’ve copied members-loop.php into my child theme (child theme > buddypress > members > members-loop.php).

As instructed by the comments in this file, I added bp_member_profile_data( ‘field=Phone’ ); directly under the comments. However, the profile field doesn’t show up on the members directory page.

Is there a crucial step I’m missing? Am I going about this the wrong way?

Any help is greatly, greatly appreciated.

To do that you need the xprofile field ID and the user ID.

Here an example to show a profile fied containing a fax number. The filed is called Fax (case sensitive).

Add this function to your child theme’s functions.php or better, into bp-custom.php
```
function my_directory() {	
if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) )

	if ( $memberfax = xprofile_get_field_data( 'Fax', bp_get_member_user_id() ) ) :
		echo '<br/><div class="Fax">';		
		echo $memberfax;
		echo '</div>';
	endif;	

}
add_filter ( 'bp_directory_members_item', 'my_directory' ); 
```

One last question. I appreciate your patience, as I am definitely nascent when it comes to this.

The profile field I’m trying to display is a series of checkboxes. When I implement your code, the page is displaying “Array” for the field data.

Can you direct me to a resource or method to allow checkbox fields to be displayed?

Thank you again!
