    Hi,

    I need to identify my users who have marked specific profile fields as private. When a user marks a field as private, “only friends” or whatever — where does buddypress store that information the database?

    I’ve looked at: bp_xprofile_data, bp_xprofile_fields, and bp_xprofile_meta but (AFAICT) it’s not in any of those.

    Anyone know where this information is stored?

    Many thanks!

    Mike

    Hi Mike,
    Thank you for the question.

    The data is stored in user meta as serialized array(field id=> viability level). I am unable to suggest a nice way to query it.
    Please take a look at the meta key ‘bp_xprofile_visibility_levels’ in user meta.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Thanks Brajesh, that’s perfect. I see it there. I can just loop through and unserialize to look for the values I need. Thanks so much!
