I have activated the facebook register option and it works like a charm. I have also looked in the facebook dev app to extend the data with the hometown which requires a separate review. Before I request the data I wanted to figure out if the extra data would be transfered by buddyapp ?
Can you tell me whether all approved data of facebook would be transfered in the register process and if so how I can access the data? . Are there additional actions available for this ?
Kind regards
Arthur
Hi Arthur,
Requesting more access to data from Facebook will not automatically import it into BuddyPress / WordPress. The BuddyApp Facebook integration processes the name, email and profile avatar if set.
If you’d like to handle more data you would need to extend the code we have in place within the theme by yourself or with the assistance of a developer.
The file you would need to edit within the BuddyApp Child theme is
/wp-content/themes/buddyapp/lib/modules/facebook-login.phpThanks,
Kieran

Thanks, the facebook-login.php looks pretty good to adapt to more fields.
small bug towards buddypress integrations is that buddypress also stores the display_name in the xfields and if you go to edit profile that field remains empty which is strange behaviour since the display_name is already saved in the user table.
Took me a while to figure out how to solve it but perhaps something to include into the facebook_plugin.php when buddypress installed.
add_action( ‘user_register’, ‘myplugin_registration_save’, 10, 1 );
function myplugin_registration_save( $user_id ) {
$udata = get_userdata( $user_id );
xprofile_set_field_data( ‘Display Name’, $user_id, $udata->display_name );}

RHi there!!! Help others from the community and mark any reply as solution if it solved your question. Mark as a solutionHello, good suggestion, thank you.
I tried some variants and it seems to work only like:
xprofile_set_field_data( 'Name', $user_id, $udata->display_name );Does you code work with ‘Display name’ instead of ‘Name’?
