Hi Leo,
Thank you for the details.

1. Are you using any custom code to assign categories or terms? Please post me the custom codes you are using.
2. The two forms are different and even if they are being edited from same place, should have different setup unless some custom code is being used to assign/manipulate categories.

There is no problem in using categories.

I will be contacting the wpml.org about the plan. Hoping that it will help us in providing compatible plugins in future.

Thank you
Brajesh

Thank you Andrew,
I am happy it is resolved now.

Hi Andrew,
Now, I can see the problem.

Field 1140 is not part of your registration forms, so BuddyPress is not saving it even if we put it in the post fields. Earlier, I assumed that you had hidden this field using css and that’s why i suggested the above suggestion.

For you, a better option will be using the following code

function buddydev_update_related_field( $user_id ) {
	
	
	//get the field value
	
	$field_data = xprofile_get_field_data(960, $user_id );
	
	if ( ! empty( $field_data ) ) {
		
		xprofile_set_field_data( 1140, $user_id, $field_data );
	}
	
}
add_action( 'bp_core_activated_user', 'buddydev_update_related_field' );

On activation, we fetch and update the field. Please test it and let me know if it works or not?

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi Phil,
Please use the following code to assign a default category.

//set default categorywhen post is being saved
function bcg_set_default_category_to_post( $post_id ) {
	
	$post = get_post( $post_id );
	
	if ( ! $post ) {
		return ;
	}
	
	$terms = wp_get_object_terms( $post_id, 'category' );
	
	if ( empty( $terms ) || ( count( $terms ) == 1 && $terms[0]->term_id == 1 ) ) {
		
		$term_id = 32;//please change it with the default term you want to assign
		
		wp_set_object_terms( $post->ID, $term_id, 'category' );
		
	}
	
}

add_action( 'bsfep_post_saved', 'bcg_set_default_category_to_post' );

Please make sure to change $term_id to your choice of default term id.

Hope that helps
