Actually it turns out that I needed to update the permalinks, that is what was causing the problem. Thanks for your help!

Ok, so I have actually solved the registration problem. Seems there was an issue with the plugin and I ended up using a different one.

However, the other problem remains. If a user updates their profile from the BuddyPress pages, it will not update their info in the Author Box. It only updates if they change it on the page where I have the shortcode for the Edit Profile form.

I thought the BuddyPress add-on was supposed to take care of the syncing?

Yup that is exactly what I ended up doing, thanks Francisco!

Hmm ok, now I feel stupid. Apparently I had accidentally put in the shortcode into the “visual” tab instead of “text”.

So another question, how do I get both types of posts to show up in the one dashboard? I’ve tried [wpuf_dashboard post_type=”referrals, posts”] and [wpuf_dashboard post_type=”referrals”, “posts”] but neither combo works.

Thanks for your help!

Ok, it’s working now, thank you for the fix!

One question though – if I have a field with radio options in my BuddyPress fields, do I need to add those same fields over again into the registration form? I was under the impression that it would pick it up from BP.

Thank you SOOO much David!!!! That worked, and just in the nick of time – presenting this site in a meeting in about 20 minutes!

WeDevs Support – you disappoint.

Yes, here are screenshots from my site.

You’ll see that I’ve created a couple of Profile Fields, but when I navigate to the BuddyPress tab of my registration form, it shows that I haven’t created any. There is also a screenshot of my registration form to show that I have fields in there as well.

Also, am having the same issue as many other people with the latest update with the radio fields picking up all the options. I need a fix urgently as the website is being presented at a meeting tomorrow. What’s the best way for me to revert back to the old version of the plugin without losing my forms or any other data? Thank you!

Tried your solution David, but in my case, it replaced all my options with the word “Array” so it’s not working for me.

Support people – really need an urgent solution to this, are you guys any closer?

If not, what is the best way for me to revert back to the older version of the plugin without losing my forms or any other data? Please help!!

Thanks for your help with the first issue, that code worked like a charm!

The second issue remains a problem though. It seems that it won’t recognize that I’ve created BuddyPress profile fields and is not displaying them in the BuddyPress tab when I go to edit my form. I followed the directions carefully from the link that you posted, so I don’t know what’s going wrong here.

I am having this same issue. I have created a custom post type of referrals and in my Dashboard page, I have the following: [wpuf_dashboard post_type=”referrals”]

But only my regular posts are showing up instead of both the posts and the referrals.

Am I missing something else?

Thanks!

Ok, so after some experimentation, I have found that for some reason post->ID won’t work. Instead I have to use get_the_ID(). Below is what I ended up with. Is there some reason that post->ID works perfectly for my custom taxonomies, but I have to switch to get_the_ID() for the form’s custom fields?

echo get_the_term_list( $post->ID, ‘county’, ‘County: ‘, ‘, ‘, ” );
echo get_the_term_list( $post->ID, ‘city’, ‘City: ‘, ‘, ‘, ” );
echo “Type of Offer: ” . get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), ‘sub_category’, true );

Thanks!

I’ve checked to make sure that the meta has a value and also checked that the meta key matches with the one I specified. The code is running in the loop.

When I do the var_dump, this is what I get: bool(false)

This is the complete snippet of code that I have running in the loop at present:

echo get_the_term_list( $post->ID, ‘county’, ‘County: ‘, ‘, ‘, ” );
echo get_the_term_list( $post->ID, ‘city’, ‘City: ‘, ‘, ‘, ” );

echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘sub_category’, true ) . “This is the category”;
$a = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘sub_category’, true);
echo var_dump($a);

The first two items (county and city) display perfectly so I know that $post->ID works.

I cannot figure out why the meta from my form isn’t working though. It’s really important that we get this fixed because I am trying to customize my template for the post and this seems to be the only way to do that.
