I am about 85% done with a plugin that will do this and It will be a freebie so hold your horses! Until then this is a current screen shot of what It will produce on the front end dependent on how the admin sets it in the dashboard:

I am working on making those xprofile items that are not filled out to not display unless they are. When I get it finished everyone gets a cool freebie! Patience!

On second thought after resting last night, I may take some time to decide whether I should release this plugin. I was tired, excited and had been up half way through the night working on this plugin when I replied, and maybe I did not think about how it would affect others in a negative way. So my apologies, but like I said I have not come to a decision yet! I will take a few days to decide and then make a decision when I can make a better judgement call.

I don’t think you have to explain someone why you do or don’t do things. As Buddypress is Open Source and as long as people do things for free, I’ll appreciate their work. I don’t think that the guy who developed a paid version of the plugin you do for free has to starve or die because of your work – maybe he has to think about some more advanced functions – so, I would be glad to get a free version of your plugin!

Here is one way you could add xprofile fields name as well as the value to the members directory! Just remember to replace “Field-Name with the names of your fields in the 5 variables in my code. Also remember it is case sensitive. If you notice the pattern of 5 in my code you can easily see how to add more fields if you need them. Place this code in bp-custom.php:

<?php
add_action('bp_directory_members_item', 'bphelp_dpioml');
function bphelp_dpioml(){
$bphelp_my_profile_field_1='Field-Name';
$bphelp_my_profile_field_2='Field-Name';
$bphelp_my_profile_field_3='Field-Name';
$bphelp_my_profile_field_4='Field-Name';
$bphelp_my_profile_field_5='Field-Name';
       if( is_user_logged_in() && bp_is_members_component() ) { ?>
		<div class="bph_xprofile_fields" style=" margin-left: 25%;">
                          <?php echo $bphelp_my_profile_field_1 ?>:&nbsp;<?php echo bp_member_profile_data( 'field='.$bphelp_my_profile_field_1 ); ?><br />
                          <?php echo $bphelp_my_profile_field_2 ?>:&nbsp;<?php echo bp_member_profile_data( 'field='.$bphelp_my_profile_field_2 ); ?><br />
                          <?php echo $bphelp_my_profile_field_3 ?>:&nbsp;<?php echo bp_member_profile_data( 'field='.$bphelp_my_profile_field_3 ); ?><br />
                          <?php echo $bphelp_my_profile_field_4 ?>:&nbsp;<?php echo bp_member_profile_data( 'field='.$bphelp_my_profile_field_4 ); ?><br />
                          <?php echo $bphelp_my_profile_field_5 ?>:&nbsp;<?php echo bp_member_profile_data( 'field='.$bphelp_my_profile_field_5 ); ?><br />
                </div><?php
       }
}
?>

Thank you both, and I suppose you are both correct. I will release the plugin when I get it done. If its for the greater good then I will not let anyone that would oppose this deter my efforts!
