I like this choice of layouts, but what would be a lot more useful for us is the ability to customise the whole profile layout - specifically being able to display certain xprofile data in the header, adding columns or a sidebar to display profile content, and being able to position the various profile fields on the profile layout with a simple drag-and-drop editor where we can also edit their styling (colour, borders, dividers, etc).
We're trying to create a LinkedIn-style community specifically for online teachers, so members have a LOT of info in their profiles which currently looks incredibly boring/ ugly as one long mega list. We'd like to be able to put their website, current job title, etc in the header; have a sidebar with a mini summary (years of experience, qualifications); and then organise the remaining profile data in clearer sub-sections with dividers, headers, different coloured sections, etc. Yes this could be done with a custom template, but tbh it's something I'd really expect to see in the BuddyBoss theme given that it is so focused on user profiles and connections/ networking.

I like the memeber directory layout, it is clean, looks fresh & modern. However, I wonder if it possible to make each members image bigger because right now the square (particularly the white space of the square) with each members image just takes up way too much space. It would be better to show smaller squares with bigger images so that more members could be shown in a single row. Is there a setting/way to list more members in the member directory in one row? Is there a setting to adjust the member square, to get rid of the unused, way to big white space?
Hi Stefan, Unfortunately, we dont have a direct setting to change the layout of the members directory page, but you can change this through CSS. Also, feel free to send this idea as a feature request on our Roadmap. www.buddyboss.com/roadmap/

Question: Since buddy boss plug in will work into my existing website, do i need a different member directory plug in that is compatible with Buddy Boss?
Hi Loizel, BuddyBoss doesn't have a built-in feature for a directory listing feature, however, we are integrated to work with a few third-party plugins that might help you with this. Here's the list: www.buddyboss.com/integrations/directorist/ www.buddyboss.com/integrations/geodirectory/ www.buddyboss.com/integrations/geodirectory-add-ons/ www.buddyboss.com/integrations/geodirectory-buddypress-integration/
Thanks for the feedback! The reason we changed the color is because the previous red color was not mapped to any color option and people want the ability to change it.
can "profile action" icons be able to be customized? for instance, I want to place a icon "Invite to quote" then when user press icon, will be directed to another website landing page - user registration page? is that possible? if involves custom work, may I know if your technical team can support on this and how is the approx. cost?
Hello, customizing the Profile Action Buttons will require custom work, you can reach out to our custom development team here to help with your special requirements. Feel free to set an appointment should there be anyone available to book. www.buddyboss.com/agency/
Awesome! Two questions, both of which are related. In the Members Directory, there was a "search" form. First, can this form be replaced with FacetWP? Second, PODS can extend the User Profile with additional custom fields/meta and as such, can those fields be added to each member displayed in the Member Directory? If any of these is possible, can you start me down an appropriate path?
3 members are displayed in a row and 20 members in a page so the last row will have 2 members. i think there is no option to edit these settings. who decided with these numbers for pagination !

Its 2022 about to be 2023.. Please update the UI!!! Do you realize how much scrolling one has to do in the admin? And thats just in this one admin page! Each section should be collapsible (all collapsed on page entry, except last used section). Keep having to scroll all the way to the bottom for EVERY save? Why not put the save button in a sidebar on the right, and sticky, so its always in the viewport.

How can I get multiple Members pages?
3 members are displayed in a row and 20 members in a page so the last row will have 2 members. i think there is no option to edit these settings. who decided with these numbers for pagination !
Can I limit members to a certain limit? like I want to show just 10 members on the members page instead of 20
Hi Syed, there is no direct way to achieve this via back-end settings. This would require custom work via CSS / Javascript.
is there any way to show desktop version of buddyboss theme on mobile ? ( i want to show default desktop view on mobile device )
