 * Hi is it possible for members to add bold text from the front end. I am trying
   to mimic a CV format and was going to put all work experience in one text box,
   but it doesn’t look very clear without any formatting. My second question is 
   that sometimes the members profile text turns blue where the previous text in
   the same sentence is black. Am I doing something wrong. Thanks for the help.

 * I believe there is a filter in buddypress that is filtering all the html tags.
   So I don’t think you can put html tags in a profile field.
 * When the text turns blue is it a link? If it’s a link, buddypress add links to
   the value of profile fields.

 * Thanks for the reply, the blue text does act as a link but as it is an unintentional
   link on the users part, it returns a ‘not found’ page.

 * You can try [this](http://codex.buddypress.org/developer/customizing/bp-custom-php/#examples).
   Put this in your functions.php:
 *     ```
       function remove_xprofile_links() {
           remove_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 9, 2 );
       }
       add_action( 'bp_init', 'remove_xprofile_links' );
       ```
