 * I am trying to make a user bio profile field without the use of the wordpress
   bio. I do not allow my users to edit their buddypress profiles through their 
   wordpress, so backend.
 * I have found this code which works with pulling my profile field “Bio” as their
   bio:
 * <?php bp_profile_field_data( array(‘user_id’=>get_the_author_meta( ‘ID’ ),’field’
   =>’Bio’ )); ?>
 * I was told from another developer that I would need to place this code somewhere
   in your plugin source files to make it show up inside of your author box. Any
   ideas?
 * Thank you in advance for your time and support!
