Hi Patrique,

Unfortunately that’s not possible, “Any Profile Field” is restricted to actual profile fields. Sorry!

Yes, you can add this code to your bp-custom.php:

add_action ('bps_field_before_search_form', 'remove_option');
function remove_option ($f)
{
	if ($f->code == 'field_75')
	{
		unset ($f->options['other']);
	}
}

Replace 75 with the actual ID of your “role” field.

Great! You are very welcome.

Thank you, Patrique.

I’ve been able to log into your test site, and I’ll let you know soon what I find.

Hello Martin,

I see you are using the Kleo theme. Kleo also provides your BP Profile Search form templates, so your question can be answered by the Kleo support team.

Hello Clara,

I was able to log into your site, and there were a few missing characters in bp-custom.php, e.g. a couple of closing braces }.

They are also missing in the code you pasted above, but I didn’t notice them earlier.

Please let me know if the autocomplete feature is now working for you.

Hello luke,

You can add the following code to your bp-custom.php:

add_action ('bps_field_before_search_form', 'set_defaults');
function set_defaults ($f)
{
	if ($f->code == 'field_5')   // drop-down field
	{
		$f->value = 'Canada';
	}
	if ($f->code == 'field_10')   // location field
	{
		$f->value['distance'] = 5;
		$f->value['units'] = 'miles';
	}
}

Replace 5 and 10 with the actual IDs of your fields.
