That code should work providing you added it to bp-custom.php or your themes functions.php between opening and closing php tags.

I just checked the link you provided and there is no auto links so the code is working. Maybe you need to do a hard refresh. CTRL+F5

I was having the same problem, and it wouldn’t work for me with any of the suggested hacks in bp-custom.php

I found a thread in the WordPress forum on the same topic which worked. Just put:

remove_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 9);

in your theme functions.php

Hope that helps.

use init not bp_init

function remove_xprofile_links() {
remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_profile_field_value’, ‘xprofile_filter_link_profile_data’, 9, 2 );
}
add_action( ‘init’, ‘remove_xprofile_links’ );

I’m not sure but it works for me when using init. I’m also calling the file the function is in by using bp_include

I think the reason I’m having funkiness is because the remove links code is inside a function that only runs if a wp option is true.
