Hello, I’m trying to create xprofile fields from my plugin code, and not from admin interface. Is this possible? Can somebody help me?

working with WP 4.7.2 and buddypress 2.8, with Onesocial Marketplace theme.

Thanks in advance.

I believe xprofile_insert_field() will insert or update a profile field. Here’s an example of how to use it:
```
$f = xprofile_insert_field( array(
    'field_group_id' => 8,
    'type'           => 'textbox',
    'name'           => 'Foo',
    'is_required'    => false,
    'can_delete'     => false,
    'description'    => 'This is a description.'
) );
```
On success, $f will be the ID of the new field.

Hello, @henrywright, is this code to be used instead of an xprofile plugin?
