Removing Profile Field Links

Hi Everyone,

I think this question was asked a while back but I cannot find it in the forums.

I am wondering how to remove the auto linking in the profile info fields on the member page. I want to remove the link for the members name and replace it with the link the user enters for the URL.

So the members name in the profile info area links to they specify when signing up.

Thanks

Dan

Aloha. You can use this for starters:
```
function df_xprofile_filter_link_profile_data( $field_value, $field_type = 'textbox' ) {

global $bp, $field;



remove_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 2, 2 );



if ( 1 == $field->group_id && 'Name' == $field->name )

return 'change this to whatever you want';

else

return xprofile_filter_link_profile_data( $field_value, $field_type );

}

add_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'df_xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 1, 2 );
```

works great, it replaces the name “with whatever i want here”

now….

how do i get it to display the members name, and also create a link to the URL the user enters in for “website”, which is currently question 3 in the profile info

i played around with it, but just kept breaking things!

thanks
