Hello Brajesh,

Thanks for the recommendation. At the moment, GEO my WP is producing a fatal error when I attempt to activate the plugin. Hopefully, it’s compatible with BuddyBoss and the Geo my WP support staff can resolve. It’s in their court.

Anyway, I tried that decimal field with a step of .0001 since I need it for capturing performance ratings. It produces the same error. My preference is “number” since the validation rules would natively apply. However, if you know how I can add a filter to that/any Xprofile input field when a member attempts to submit the data, then that would work too since I could perform my own validation/etc.

Hello Brajesh,

That’s a valuable plugin. However, setting the field as numeric is not an option in the dropdown. Alphanumeric is and that won’t work when it will eventually be used in a faceted range search for members with a rating between x and y.

Unless I’m missing something….

Hello Brajesh,

Whatever you provide would be great. The validation step in BuddyBoss when editing the Profile, is after clicking the Save Changes button. If it fails, the error is noted at the top of the page and the field value is discarded.

So, in this case since you recommended a text input field to capture the Lat/Long, the validation would check that it is not alphanumeric but numeric (containing only numbers and a decimal point) instead. I’m using Lat/Long as an example.

Another example would be “performance rating” which would capture a floating point value to 4 decimal places which would then be used in a faceted search using a range facet, searching for members with a rating between x and y.
