I believe the easier way is to edit template of edit profile form and hide the fields you don’t want users can change…

Hi,

Sorry, I don’t understand what you need to do… Give me more details or maybe a url to see it…

Hi, this code has nothing to do with what you want to achieve…

Because this code is only for edit profile… it’s not responsible of the profile template…only the profile form.

With the css, I can’t help you if you don’t send me a link to see it. I need to know what classes or ids to use…

If yo need, you can modify buddypress template to show Age instead of Birthdate too.

Hi,

I believe the only way to do this is rewrite the function responsible of create buddypress links, you need to use the following code and delete the previous:

/**
 * This is the custom filter to create links
 */
function my_xprofile_filter_link_profile_data( $field_value, $field_type = 'textbox' ) {
    // Access the field you are going to display value.
    global $field;
    // In this array you write the ids of the fields you want to hide the link.
    $excluded_field_ids = array(2,6,7);
    // If the id of this $field is in the array, we return the value only and not the link.
    if (in_array($field->id, $excluded_field_ids))
        return $field_value;

	if ( 'datebox' == $field_type )
		return $field_value;

	if ( !strpos( $field_value, ',' ) && ( count( explode( ' ', $field_value ) ) > 5 ) )
		return $field_value;

	$values = explode( ',', $field_value );

	if ( !empty( $values ) ) {
		foreach ( (array) $values as $value ) {
			$value = trim( $value );

			// If the value is a URL, skip it and just make it clickable.
			if ( preg_match( '@(https?://([-\w\.]+)+(:\d+)?(/([\w/_\.]*(\?\S+)?)?)?)@', $value ) ) {
				$new_values[] = make_clickable( $value );

			// Is not clickable
			} else {

				// More than 5 spaces
				if ( count( explode( ' ', $value ) ) > 5 ) {
					$new_values[] = $value;

				// Less than 5 spaces
				} else {
					$search_url   = add_query_arg( array( 's' => urlencode( $value ) ), bp_get_members_directory_permalink() );
					$new_values[] = '<a href="' . $search_url . '" rel="nofollow">' . $value . '</a>';
				}
			}
		}

		$values = implode( ', ', $new_values );
	}

	return $values;
}

/**
 * We remove the buddypress filter and add our custom filter.
 */
function remove_xprofile_links() {
    // Remove the old filter.
    remove_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 9, 2 );
    // Add your custom filter.
    add_filter( 'bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'my_xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 9, 2);
}
add_action('bp_setup_globals', 'remove_xprofile_links');

Try it and get in touch if this does not work.

What theme are you using? What versions of wordpress, buddypress and my plugin?

Hi,

i don’t know, you need to check what value is saved in the database to see if the error happens when displaying the field value or when saving. If it’s when you are displaying it only, maybe you can use a custom filter to use strip_tags function of php and create the link by yourself.
