How can I hide certain xprofile custom fields groups in the registration page?
-
Hi,
I’m building a BP/WP single install site for a local organization and the extra profile fields are divided in 4 sections:
Group 1- Full Name (base group)
Group 2- General Info (location, age, gender, occupation)
Group 3 – Personal Info (bio, interests, etc.)
Group 4 – Contact (messengers ID’s, Twitter, etc.)
What I’m trying to accomplish is to hide groups 3 and 4 on the registration page not to overwhelm the user with a bunch of fields to fill out during sign-up, those fields can be filled out once the user has activated her/his account via “edit profile”.
Thanks,
Gene

It becomes just string manipulation. Create a new function (my_funky_function) and do something like this:
function my_funky_function() {
echo str_replace( "username","", bp_get_the_profile_group_field_ids() );
}Then replace the bp_the_profile_group_field_ids() call in edit.php (in your child theme of course) with my_funky_function().
I think that will work but it’s not tested.
Edit:
Oh, sorry, I’m sort of wrong. This is what I get in my edit.php form in the HTML:
<input type="hidden" name="field_ids" id="field_ids" value="1,3" />Field_id 1 is the Username for me. You just need to filter that out so the str_replace call should be “1,” instead of “username”.
So it works? Tag the topic as resolved.
