Hello,

I added a URL type field in the member profile, but I can’t manage to customize the text for the link and hide the full URL…

I tried something like : <a href="https://mywebsite.com/test_customized_link/">URL is now hidden</a>

But it doesn’t work, it shows all the text not the link customized.

Is there is a way to customize it please, it’s not really nice to show a full URL like that in a profile field.

I want this result : URL is now hidden

Thank you for your help

Wordpress version : 6.0.1
BuddyPress version : 10.3.0
Website URL : Private website closed for public people

In fact it’s when I’m choosing text field that <a href="https://mywebsite.com/test_customized_link/">URL is now hidden</a> appears.

If I choose URL, it just give an error and doesn’t save the value.

So if someone has a solution to that please ?

Thank you

Hi @lbnn

I think this plugin would help

Hello @kainelabsteam,

Thank you for your suggestion, I already tried this plugin, but I have the same error when I put some HTML code in the field.

Thanks

Hi @lbnn

Have you tried the “Multi-line text area” profile type?
