1.4.8 include your German translation.

Thanks again!

This plugin is not part of BP. It extends xprofile functions of BP. This plugin add new field’s type for xprofile fields. Before you install this plugin you already haver Profile Fields. When you go to create a new field or edit one, in the select Field type, you can choose: Text box, Multi-line text box, Date selector, Radio buttons, Drop down select box, Checkboxes. Those fields come with Buddypress.

This plugin add: Birthdate, Email, Website, Datepicker, Custom post type selector, Custom post type multiselector.

The “change visibility” come from Buddypress, this plugin don’t change anything about this.

This plugin is only useful if you need to add a birthdate field, email, website, datepicker, … If the original field’s type are enough for you, I think you don’t need this plugin.

I hope I have clarified something…

Mmm, sorry about the confusion. This plugin only add types of fields, not fields.

You need to create the fields yourself. This plugin add more options to the field’s type select when you create or edit a field.

OCS Foundation CTO, I don’t think this plugin is the suitable to achieve this function. It was created to add more field’s type, buy maybe you can do it coding a little. You can add an action to bp_custom_profile_edit_fields and hice the field you want.
I have no time this week to try this, but maybe next week I can help you with this.

latinoleader, I don’t know but I don’t believe this plugin let you modify edit permissions over a field you create with a plugin. If you try and it works, let us know!

Hi,

There is no way to do this with this plugin and I don’t know other plugin to do this. Sorry…

Hi,

I think we can’t do this in the plugin. We can achieve what you want modifying the template edit.php profile.

Go to your theme and search edit.php in members/single/profile folder. At line 136 you can see this:
<?php do_action( 'bp_custom_profile_edit_fields' ); ?>

This the function which renders the plugin’s new files. Cut this line and paste at line 115. The code will look like this:

<?php do_action( 'bp_custom_profile_edit_fields' ); ?>

				<?php if ( bp_current_user_can( 'bp_xprofile_change_field_visibility' ) ) : ?>
					<p class="field-visibility-settings-toggle" id="field-visibility-settings-toggle-<?php bp_the_profile_field_id() ?>">
						<?php printf( __( 'This field can be seen by: <span class="current-visibility-level">%s</span>', 'buddypress' ), bp_get_the_profile_field_visibility_level_label() ) ?> <a href="#" class="visibility-toggle-link"><?php _e( 'Change', 'buddypress' ); ?></a>
					</p>

					<div class="field-visibility-settings" id="field-visibility-settings-<?php bp_the_profile_field_id() ?>">
						<fieldset>
							<legend><?php _e( 'Who can see this field?', 'buddypress' ) ?></legend>

							<?php bp_profile_visibility_radio_buttons() ?>

						</fieldset>
						<a class="field-visibility-settings-close" href="#"><?php _e( 'Close', 'buddypress' ) ?></a>
					</div>
				<?php else : ?>
					<div class="field-visibility-settings-notoggle" id="field-visibility-settings-toggle-<?php bp_the_profile_field_id() ?>">
						<?php printf( __( 'This field can be seen by: <span class="current-visibility-level">%s</span>', 'buddypress' ), bp_get_the_profile_field_visibility_level_label() ) ?>
					</div>
				<?php endif ?>

You welcome!

We need to do some debug. Can you add this line of code in bp-xprofile-custom-fields-type.php line 381,382 you can see:

// Get children.
$childs = $field->get_children();

Below this line we must add this:

var_dump($childs);

The code will look like this:

// Get children.
        $childs = $field->get_children();
        var_dump($childs);

Then reload the page where the age is supposed to be, copy and paste the code returned. It will look like this:

array
0 =>
object(stdClass)[4113]
public ‘id’ => string ’63’ (length=2)
public ‘group_id’ => string ‘1’ (length=1)
public ‘parent_id’ => string ‘3’ (length=1)
public ‘type’ => string ‘birthdate_option’ (length=16)
public ‘name’ => string ‘show_age’ (length=8)
public ‘description’ => string ” (length=0)
public ‘is_required’ => string ‘0’ (length=1)
public ‘is_default_option’ => string ‘1’ (length=1)
public ‘field_order’ => string ‘0’ (length=1)
public ‘option_order’ => string ‘1’ (length=1)
public ‘order_by’ => string ” (length=0)
public ‘can_delete’ => string ‘1’ (length=1)

Thanks!
