Hide Profile Field Group from Specific Member Type

Ok, so I am getting to grips with this 2.2 member types update.

I’m trying to figure out how to hide specific profile field groups on the edit profile page. Some profile fields should only be visible to 1 group, not all.

Does anyone have any idea of how to point me in the right direction?

I know how to do this in terms of displaying profile fields, but not displaying them wthin ‘edit profile’.

find the template file edit.php in members/single/profile
locate
if ( bp_has_profile( 'profile_group_id=' . bp_get_current_profile_group_id() ) ) :
change to
if ( bp_has_profile( 'profile_group_id=' . bp_get_current_profile_group_id() . bp_custom_filter_xprofile_fields() ) ) :

then add your function for field IDs
```
function bp_custom_filter_xprofile_fields() {

	$member_type = bp_get_member_type( bp_displayed_user_id() );

	if ( 'member_type_here' === $member_type  ) {
		return '&exclude_fields=3,5,9' ) );
	}
}
```
you will have to find the IDs of the profile fields

@modemlooper – It could be nice if one could handle this from the xprofile fields in wp_admin as well – do you know how to do that ? I don’t think I have to request that feature I am sure it will come.

Could be nice : )

Do you guys have any snippet to display the xprofile fields ID in admin?
The lesser I go to my db, the happier I am! 🙂
