Hi,

Please put this code in your bp-custom.php (or theme’s functions.php)
It will hide the I Research field on Registration/Edit profile and update its value from the “I am” field.

I have used the field id from your site.

/**
 * Update value of the dest field when source is updated.
 *
 * @param BP_XProfile_ProfileData $object data object.
 */
function buddydev_sync_to_field_data_to_other_field_on_update( $object ) {
	// Field id, whose value we use to determine the calculated value for the synchronized field.
	$sync_source_field_id      = 3; // field when change, triggers change to the sync field.
	// this is the field whose value will be updated based on the calculation.
	$sync_dest_field_id = 6;// field we will update.

	// If it is not the source field id, don't do anything.
	if ( $object->field_id != $sync_source_field_id ) {
		return;
	}

	$value       = $object->value;
	$value       = maybe_unserialize( $value );
	$other_value = '';

	if ( empty( $value ) ) {
		// delete.
		xprofile_delete_field_data( $sync_dest_field_id, $object->user_id );

		return;
	}
	// Determine, what value we should set.
	// This is the block that we use to calculate
	// you will need to update for your use case.
	if ( 'Un Homme' == $value ) {
		$other_value = 'Une Femme';
	} else {
		$other_value = 'Un Homme';
	}
	// If the sync_destination field is select/radio, make sure the calculated value is what you have
	// added as option the the field add/edit screen. Should match exactly.
	// set teh value.
	xprofile_set_field_data( $sync_dest_field_id, $object->user_id, $other_value );
}
// On update.
add_action( 'xprofile_data_after_save', 'buddydev_sync_to_field_data_to_other_field_on_update' );

// On delete.
function buddydev_sync_to_field_data_to_other_field_on_delete( $object ) {
// Field id, whose value we use to determine the calculated value for the synchronized field.
	$sync_source_field_id      = 3; // field when change, triggers change to the sync field.
	// this is the field whose value will be updated based on the calculation.
	$sync_dest_field_id = 6;// field we will update.

	// If it is not the source field id, don't do anything.
	if ( $object->field_id != $sync_source_field_id ) {
		return;
	}

	xprofile_delete_field_data( $sync_dest_field_id, $object->user_id );
}
add_action( 'xprofile_data_after_delete', 'buddydev_sync_to_field_data_to_other_field_on_delete' );

/**
 * Hide the synchronized field from Registration/Edit profile fields. Its value is set programatically.
 * @param $args
 *
 * @return mixed
 */
function buddydev_exclude_sync_profile_field_in_edit_context( $args ) {

	if ( ! bp_is_user_profile_edit() && ! bp_is_register_page() ) {
		return $args;
	}

	$sync_to_field    = 6;
	$exclude_fields   = isset( $args['exclude_fields'] ) ? explode( ',', $args['exclude_fields'] ) : array();
	$exclude_fields[] = $sync_to_field;

	$args['exclude_fields'] = join( ',', $exclude_fields );

	return $args;
}

add_filter( 'bp_after_has_profile_parse_args', 'buddydev_exclude_sync_profile_field_in_edit_context' );

Hi Max,

Thank you for clarifying.

We haven’t tested it. We can certainly test and make compatible with our activity autoloader plugin in future.

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi Sam,
Thank you.

Please allow me to update the plugin. Will be releasing in next couple of hours and will be writing back.

PS:- About upgrading to our membership, I will be providing coupon to get the plugin price discounted from the membership cost.

Hi,
I am sorry but the way you are looking for is not available in BuddyPress.

What you are looking for a derived/caculated field from the values of another field.

The general strategy in this case is to use only one field and calculate the other value.

For example, If a person is Man, you can write code to derive the Research field value as woman.

There does not seem to be any existing solution for this kind of use case. I do see that you can write some code to sync value of another field based on a field.

If you can post me the field ids for both the field(and exact options), I will be able to provide you some code to resolve it.

Regards
Brajesh
