Category exclusions on form not working + BuddyPress integration won't link

Hello Rj,

1. I have checked the issue and got the same problem and reported to the developers. You’ll get the fix soon. For the time being you can use the dropdown for categories.

2. Here is the documentation for the buddypress plugin.
http://docs.wedevs.com/buddypress-profile-integration-add-on/
Please read them carefully. I believe you’ll get a clear idea about the plugin from there

Here’s the fix:
Open wpuf-functions.php which is located at “wp-content/plugins/wp-user-frontend-pro/” and go to line number 336 and you’ll see a function named function wpuf_category_checklist you have to replace the whole function with the below one.

[php]
function wpuf_category_checklist( $post_id = 0, $selected_cats = false, $attr = array(), $class = null ) {
require_once ABSPATH . ‘/wp-admin/includes/template.php’;

$walker = new WPUF_Walker_Category_Checklist();

$exclude_type = isset( $attr[‘exclude_type’] ) ? $attr[‘exclude_type’] : ‘exclude’;
$exclude = explode( ‘,’, $attr[‘exclude’] );
$tax = $attr[‘name’];

$args = array(
‘taxonomy’ => $tax,
);

if ( $post_id ) {
$args[‘selected_cats’] = wp_get_object_terms( $post_id, $tax, array(‘fields’ => ‘ids’) );
} elseif ( $selected_cats ) {
$args[‘selected_cats’] = $selected_cats;
} else {
$args[‘selected_cats’] = array();
}

$args[‘class’] = $class;

$categories = (array) get_terms( $tax, array(
‘hide_empty’ => false,
$exclude_type => (array) $exclude,
‘orderby’ => isset( $attr[‘orderby’] ) ? $attr[‘orderby’] : ‘name’,
‘order’ => isset( $attr[‘order’] ) ? $attr[‘order’] : ‘ASC’,
) );

echo ‘<ul class="wpuf-category-checklist">’;
echo call_user_func_array( array(&$walker, ‘walk’), array($categories, 0, $args) );
echo ‘</ul>’;
}
[/php]

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.

Hello Rj,
I’m not clear about your problem. Can you please provide me some screenshot?

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!

Hello Rj,
I have tested your issue and got the problem and already notified the developer team. Hope to get a fix soon.

We have fixed the issue. Please update your add-on now.

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.

You have to link each and every field through the BuddyPress tab. Otherwise that field won’t be displayed.
