I am running WordPress 4.9.5 with the Sweetdate Theme. Buddpypress 2.9.4 http://housing.digitalelegance.com/members/

I am trying to get a few of the profile fields to show up under the member name on the members page. I tried to edit the member-loop.php and nothing was showing up. At the moment I have hidden the following areas through CSS

.search-item .date {display:none;}
.search-item .search-body{display:none;}

I need some real world help in displaying these fields. Any other information you may need, just ask. Thank you

If that theme has not removed the bp_directory_members_item hook from the members-loop template, then you could use this function in bp-custom.php

Assuming you have a profile field named ‘Title’ …
```
function acie_show_member_data() {

	$title =  bp_get_member_profile_data( 'field=Title' );

	if ( $title != '' ) {
		$str = $title . '<br>';
		echo $str;
	}
	
}
add_action( 'bp_directory_members_item', 'acie_show_member_data' );
```

Call me a noob, but that didn’t make much sense to me. I’m not sure what hooks are, and I don’t know where bp-custom.php is.

Look for that text in your theme’s member-loop template.

>and I don’t know where bp-custom.php is.

I provided a link to the documentation in my reply.

Thanks for pointing me to the theme’s member-loop.php, this is the one I can edit. I was working on the plugin one. I just need to find out how to Call the right data
