    I have a single filed left in the Sign-up group, that I want to remove. But I can’t.

    It’s used for display name.

    Hello Morten,

    Welcome to the BuddyDev Forums. Are you using BuddyPress or BuddyBoss Platform? Please let me know.

    Regards

    BuddyPress – I think 🙂

    Don’t know what BP Platform is.

    The field is marked with (Primary), so I guess that’s why I can’t remove it from signup.
    I don’t remember choosing it to be Primary – and it’s by no means meant to an ID field.

    Hi Morten,
    Thank you.

    You are right. The field is required by BuddyPress(not bp profile completion).

    There are ways to delete it by setting another field as primary(via code) but I would advise against that. If possible, You may want to rename it if that works for you.

    I don’t want to have any of these fields in signup. I want the completion demands to kick in AFTER access granted by subscription payment. Right now it interrupts the payment flow.

    Is there any way to achieve that? Coding something isn’t an issue, but I agree with notion about be ing careull going that way.

    If I can hide the field and autofill it, that would be okay.

    Hi Morten,
    thank you for the reply.

    When I said using code, I meant changing that field id to something else. The requirement of name will still remain.

    In your case, the best solution is to disable BuddyPress registration page and use your plugin’s subscription page.

    That would make your workflow feasible.
