Conditional Profile Fields for BuddyPress

The Conditional Profile Fields for BuddyPress plugin lets site administrators set conditions for the hiding/showing profile fields based on the various data entered by the user.

The integration works and requires the BuddyBoss Platform installed and activated on your website.

BuddyBoss Platform is a fork and forge of the BuddyPress plugin and bbPress plugin. Any plugin developed for the BuddyPress and bbPress plugin is supported by the BuddyBoss Platform.

You do NOT need to install the BuddyPress plugin or the bbPress plugin separately. BuddyBoss Platform acts as a replacement for both the plugins.
