Get all values of a XProfile field

Hello,
I have an XProfile field with various selectable values: A, B, C…

I want to display these values on the website; not the one selected by user “X”, but all the values selectable.

How can I get these? Are there any BP function to retrieve an array of them?

Take a look through the bp-xprofile-functions.php file.

I’ve found a solutin using:

$values = xprofile_get_field(MY_CUSTOM_FIELD_ID)->get_children();

But using a field “name” instead of an ID would be easier… are there any function for it?

You could use xprofile_get_field_id_from_name first.

Thanks a lot, the final code is:

$values = xprofile_get_field(xprofile_get_field_id_from_name('MY_CUSTOM_FIELD_NAME'))->get_children();
