Hello Mif,

I’m not a CSS person either, so I can only suggest one of the following workarounds:

1. Set the Collapsible Form option to Yes, so that the form is always collapsed unless you are using it;

2. Try inserting the search form in a sidebar, using the Profile Search widget.

Please let me know if this helps!

Hi Mif,

You can add this code to your bp-custom.php file:

add_action ('bps_field_before_search_form', 'change_display');
function change_display ($f)
{
	if ($f->code == 'field_34')
	{
		$f->display = 'checkbox';
	}
}

Replace 34 with the actual field ID of your multi-select field.

Hi Max,

What you need is a modified form template, that adds the search fields on a grid suitable for your theme, possibly using the same CSS of your theme.

Unfortunately I don’t have a solution ready for this use case but, if you or your developer want to modify the standard form template, you can find some information in this page:

Hi Max,

The search modes appear in the search forms and in the active filters area before the members directory.

In both cases there is a BP Profile Search template you can modify to better suit your needs: bps-form-default.php for the search forms, and bps-filters.php for the active filters area.

Hi Basti,

Try adding this code to your bp-custom.php file:

add_action ('bp_before_directory_members_content', 'move_filters', 5);
function move_filters ()
{
	remove_action ('bp_before_directory_members_content', 'bps_add_filters');
	add_action ('bp_before_directory_members_tabs', 'bps_add_filters', 20);
}
