Profile Field shows up in Account Details but missing from backend

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place to ask. I did submit a ticket for a bug investigation but I also need immediate assistance as the issue I’m facing is compromising my site.

I am experiencing a problem when it comes to the ”’Profile Fields”’ section of the Profile setup in BuddyPress. I have created Profile Fields in Base (Primary) and all of them show up in the Profile Details section of the Register page in the front end, ”’except for one Profile Field that shows up in the Account Details”’ section of the Register page.

I really need to delete the profile field that shows up in the wrong section, in Account Details because it has typos and users are complaining that they can’t sign up because of it. I never even created the profile field in Account Details because I do not know if there’s even a way to access Account Details.

I can view the profile field in the front end but in the backend I can view all the other profile fields except for this one. (By the way, it is NOT the Name profile field, what I am refering to is just a custom one I created). I just need to be able to view this specific profile field so that I can delete it as it prevents sign-ups to my site due to a typo…

I tried uninstalling BuddyPress and reinstalling it but was met with the exact same settings…

I appreciate any help!

Attached is a screenshot of the problem:

Hi @aethermage,

looks like a captcha question: what animal says miaw.
Do you use such a plugin or is your theme adding this ?

Thank you for your reply @danbp.

I actually created the profile field myself in Dashboard > Users > Profile Fields to emulate a captcha plugin. For some odd reason it appears under Account Details instead of under Profile Details on the Register page and is missing from the backend so I am unable to edit/delete it.
