profile fields doubling

[Dearing]

He everybody,

I have a problem with user profile fields on my website.

When I enter extended fields in Buddypress for instance ‘First name’ and ‘Last Name’, it doubles the fields in the backend. In the front end is appears empty. Only when I press edit in the frontend does it appear. But when it appears it appears twice all fields.

Hi @dearingdraws
Please modify function boss_customizer_xprofile_field_choices()
replace the complete function with following codes
/boss/buddyboss-inc/buddyboss-framework/options-init.php

public function boss_customizer_xprofile_field_choices() {
			$options = array();
            $xfields = array();
			if ( function_exists( 'bp_is_active' ) ) {
			global $wpdb, $bp;
                    $xfields = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT id,name FROM <code>{$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_fields</code> ");

                    foreach($xfields as $field)
                    {
                        $options[$field->id] = $field->name;
                    }
            }

			return $options;
		}

Hi @vapvarun,

Well the fix seems to work but all the fields that I have added are no longer visible from front-end.

Will there be an official update which fixes this double field issue?

Note: I just updated to Boss 2.0.5 but this bug fix has not been included.

Best regards,
Michael

For reference this is the code I replaced in Boss 2.0.5:

public function boss_customizer_xprofile_field_choices() {
			$options = array();
			if ( function_exists( 'bp_is_active' ) ) {
				if ( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) && bp_has_profile( array( 'user_id' => get_current_user_id(), 'hide_empty_groups' => false, 'hide_empty_fields' => false ) ) ) {
					while ( bp_profile_groups() ) {
						bp_the_profile_group();
                        $fields = array();
                        while ( bp_profile_fields() ) {
                            bp_the_profile_field();
                            $fields[ bp_get_the_profile_field_id() ] = bp_get_the_profile_field_name();
                        }
                        
                        global $profile_template;
                        if( $profile_template->group_count > 1 ){
                            $options[bp_get_the_profile_group_name()] = $fields;
                        } else {
                            //no need to show 'optgroup' is there is only one xprofiel field group
                            foreach( $fields as $k=>$l ){
                                $options[$k] = $l;
                            }
                        }
					}
				}
			}

			return $options;
		}

Hi @mln83 , It is already fixed but it was not pushed in our last update
It will be updated in next update, It had issues with specific users who use object cache.
