Any Plans or Phone Field?

Have you tried to use “bxcft_show_field_value” filter?

Create a textbox field for your phone number. Try to put the following code inside your functions.php:

/** Phone field clickable */
add_filter( 'bxcft_show_field_value', 'my_show_field_value', 10, 4);
function my_show_field_value($value_to_return, $type, $field_id, $value) {
    if ($field_id == XXX) {
        $value_to_return = sprintf('<a href="tel:%1$s">%1$s</a>', strip_tags($value_to_return));
    }
    return $value_to_return;
}

Replace “XXX” with the id of your phone field.

This should work.

Thank you, I’m going to give this a try. What would you do differently if there are two or three field_id’s? xxx,xxx ?

Thank you so much, this worked perfectly!!

When you have more than two fields I did this and it worked. If there is a better way, please let me know!!

/** Phone field clickable */
add_filter( 'bxcft_show_field_value', 'my_show_field_value', 10, 4);
function my_show_field_value($value_to_return, $type, $field_id, $value) {
    if ($field_id == 10) {
        $value_to_return = sprintf('<a href="tel:%1$s">%1$s</a>', strip_tags($value_to_return));
    }
    if ($field_id == 18) {
        $value_to_return = sprintf('<a href="tel:%1$s">%1$s</a>', strip_tags($value_to_return));
    }
    return $value_to_return;
}

A better way would be:

/** Phone field clickable */
add_filter( 'bxcft_show_field_value', 'my_show_field_value', 10, 4);
function my_show_field_value($value_to_return, $type, $field_id, $value) {
    if ($field_id == 10 || $field_id == 18) {
        $value_to_return = sprintf('<a href="tel:%1$s">%1$s</a>', strip_tags($value_to_return));
    }
    return $value_to_return;
}

|| means OR.

You’re welcome!

I have tried playing with the above code for days now and cannot omeup with a solution. Wen I use it my output look like this:

<a href="5555555555">5555555555</a> This code is what appears

Any ideas?

You probably miss the “tel:” before “5555555555”.

Hello donmik,

I just updated to your latest version from two weeks ago and (ktfmc) is correct, it’s not working now with your last update. I had to downgrade to 2.1.5 since that is the last version you have available from the developers tab.

Downgrading the plugin allows it to work again ??

Hello donmik,

I couldn’t tell if this problem has been solved in 2.4.6

Thanks!!

No it wasn’t fixed in 2.4.6

What error are you talking about?

The /** Phone field clickable */ script as identified in this thread no longer works with your two recent updates.

In order to keep it working I had to downgrade to version 2.1.5 since that is the last version you have available from the developers tab.

Any attempts to upgrade the plugin results in
<a href="tel:xxx-xxx-xxxx">xxx-xxx-xxxx</a>
showing up as the results instead of a clickable phone number.

Since last version, this filter “bxcft_show_field_value” is deprecated. You need to stop using it because I will remove it on version 3.0.

Use this code instead:

add_filter('bp_get_the_profile_field_value', 'my_custom_field_value', 12, 3);
function my_custom_field_value($value, $type, $field_id) {
    if ($field_id == 241) {
        $value = sprintf('<a href="tel:%1$s">%1$s</a>',
            strip_tags($value));
    }

    return $value;
}

This should work if you have autolink enabled for your field or disabled but I recommend disabling it.

I’ve updated my plugin to version 2.4.7 because while I was looking for a solution about this, I have seen that my plugin was disabling autolink features for the default buddypress field types. This is solved with the latest update.

I finally updated plugin and used new code and everything is functioning perfectly, thank you Donmik!

Have an awesome day and thank you for continuing to support this plugin.
