By the way, I created my blog posts from the admin pages. As I understand that should work, I mean I don’t have to use the other plugin that lets you post from the group front end.

Yes, I would like to list specific data. Honestly, I’m looking for the ability to choose any field I need and place it on a custom page. Basically, I want to choose several of the members and make them a special Featured Member page. I would custom build the page and add the shortcodes on each page. I might want to display their username and many of the custom fields I created for the BuddyPress Xprofile.

Found this plugin that does a good job displaying these fields using a shortcode except for one thing. If a field has multiple options it outputs “array” instead of each item – If this worked it would be perfect.

I tried this plugin as well but it has a problem that many users are reporting. I’m affected by that problem too and it doesn’t display the custom fields on my site:

The other thing I need to display is the avatar of a chosen user ID but I understand that has nothing to do with a custom field. I’m still looking for that solution.

I recommend changing the default message if you would like to do that. Closing this ticket 🙂

By the way I was able to make the BP Simple Front End Post plugin to work.

Still wondering if I can achieve this using WP posts or BuddyBlog Pro
