Frequently Asked Questions.
What is BuddyPress member type?
Member type is a way to classify your users depending on certain characteristics. For example, you may want to treat 'teachers' differently than 'students'.
Does it work with WordPress Roles?
Yes, It does. It allows associating WordPress roles to member type and automatically assigns the new roles(s) on member type change.
Where should I use BuddyPress member types?
It is recommended to use member types where you want to differentiate between the group of users(Think of user categories, user sets, user lists etc). Some of the examples are:-
- Company intranet(member type based on role)
- College/University sites(student, teacher, staff)
- Dating sites(male/female member type)
- Sports site(players, managers, fan etc)
- and more…
Will changing role change the member type too?
Depends. If you set the Role to Member Type association in Settings->Member Type screen, Then the member type will change based on role otherwise not.
How do I allow/disallow changing member type?
On the New/Edit Profile field page, you can control this behaviour.
Does it support profile field based on member type?
Yes, It does. To be honest, BuddyPress supports this feature out of the box for all registered member types.
Does it support conditional registration field?
Yes, It does. With version 1.3.0 and above, the registration page can have conditional fields based on member types too. Please see the docs for more details. Conditional fields on profile edit page have been supported from the very start(Edit profile conditional field is a feature of BuddyPress core).
Can I safely update from BuddyPress Member Type Generator plugin?
Yes, absolutely. Disable the Member Type Generator and activate this plugin, all the member types registered with member type generator will be available.
Is it compatible with WordPress multisite?
Yes, It is.
Does it support multiple member types assignment to user?
Yes, It does. You can use the Multi Member type field included with the plugin to create xprofile fields with multiple member types.
Can I use single and multiple member types field together?
You can, but we advise sticking to either singular member type field or the multiple member type field.
Can I do member type based conditional login or registration redirect?
Yes, you can. You can setup the login and activation redirect based on member type from member type add/edit screen.
Is this better than the other BudyPress Member Type plugins?
It is. We suggest comparing the features and looking at our documentation. We have the most complete member type solution for BuddyPress.
Is it compatible with BuddyBoss platform?
No. BuddyBoss platform digresses from the BuddyPress implementation of member types. It is not feasible to provide compatibility.
