    Hi. I’m looking for one search field (widget) which searchs in couple of profile fields. like name, surname, city, job (and other custom made profile fields) but i don’t want to search all fields (some fields have to be hidden for other users).
    BP Member Search would be fine, but i can only search one profile field for each search input.

    Best Regards

    Hello Brajesh (again 🙂 )

    My mistake: i mean “BP Profile Search” when i said ” i can only search one profile field for each search input.” So this won’t work for me 🙁

    Best regards

    BP Profile Search will search as many profile fields as you want for each search input.
    Just follow the directions for that plugin.
    If you have additional questions, please ask them on the support forum for BP Profile Search.

    Hello Shane

    “BP Profile Search will search as many profile fields as you want for each search input.”

    Yes, but i want only ONE searchfield to search in name, surname, city and jobs, not for each profile field a searchfield

    Yeah, thats what i’m looking for. i already opened a support ticket, but you response faster 🙂

    For all followers: you can add this to the functions.php

    add_filter ('bps_field_sql', 'change_query', 10, 2);
function change_query ($sql, $f)
{
        if ($f->id == 5)  $sql['where']['field_id'] = 'field_id IN (5,12)';
        return $sql;
}

    while id == 5 is the “basic” profile field ID you want to search for and in field_id IN (5,12) you can add as many profile field IDs as you like to be included in the search

    Thanks a lot!
    Problem is solved!
