wpautopfor x-profile fields

1. Hi Brajesh,
   I see that when i enter multiple lines in x-profile textarea and display it they show up on the same line.

   for example - if i save this
   line1
   line2

   it shows up as -
   line1 line2

   To fix this i added the following line
   add_filter( 'bp_get_member_profile_data', 'wpautop' );

   This fixed the pbm with text area, not everything shows up well formatted.
   But a new line
   is entered after every text input as well.

   So let say I have two text fields state and city, and i want to display them as state,city but now they are displayed as
   state
   city

   How can I fix this?

3. HI Gwu,
   The problem is bp_get_member_profile_data do not provide any information about the field type but just data.

   Are you using bp_get_member_profile_data() or bp_member_profile_data() in your theme somewhere, we may find some alternative for these.

6. Hi Gwu, Use this function
   

   function my_member_profile_data( $args = '' ) {
   		global $bp;
   
   		if ( !function_exists( 'xprofile_install' ) )
   			return false;
                    $defaults = array(
   			'field'   => false, // Field name or ID.
   			'user_id' => $bp->displayed_user->id
   		);
           $r = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );
           extract( $r, EXTR_SKIP );
           if(is_numeric($field))
               $field_id=$field;
           else
               $field_id = xprofile_get_field_id_from_name( $field );
   
           $data= xprofile_get_field_data( $field_id, $user_id );
           $field_info=xprofile_get_field($field_id);
           if($field_info->type=="textarea")
               echo apply_filters( 'bp_get_profile_field_data', $data );//let apply all the normal filters xyz
           else
               echo $data;
   
   }

   call it file
   my_member_profile_data( 'field=name' )

   as you see, we have allowed to apply filter for textarea but not for other type. You can modify it to your linking.

   hope that helps.
