It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/bp-delegated-xprofile.svg) # BP Delegated XProfile By [Meitar](https://profiles.wordpress.org/meitar/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bp-delegated-xprofile.zip) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-delegated-xprofile/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-delegated-xprofile/#reviews) * [Installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-delegated-xprofile/#installation) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-delegated-xprofile/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bp-delegated-xprofile/) ## Description Creates a simple, secure delegation system whereby a privileged user (such as an administrator) can assign other registered BuddyPress members to be “delegates” for a given user. A delegate has the capability to view and edit Extended Profile( XProfile) fields for the delegated user. This is useful on sites where certain relationships exist between one user and another, such as legal guardianship by an adult over a child. Using delegation reduces the need to share passwords or log in to shared accounts. _Donations for this plugin make up a chunk of my income.

The custom capabilities are: * `edit_user_delegates` – Users with this capability can assign delegates for users they can edit (determined by `edit_users`). Additionally, the following core capabilities are required: * `list_users` – The delegation options implicitly enumerate all registered users, so a user must also have the `list_users` capability to be granted access to the Delegation user interface. * `edit_users` – If you cannot `edit_users`, you cannot `edit_user_delegates`, either. On a default WordPress and BuddyPress installation, these capabilities are granted only to Administrator users. However, this can be changed using the built-in capability filter hooks. ## Installation BP Delegated XProfile can be installed automatically from the WordPress plugin repository by searching for “BP Delegated XProfile” in the “Add new plugin” screen of your WordPress admin site and clicking the “Install now” button.
