Very useful plugin

It’s in the title and the description of the plugin and I’ve spelled it out for you in a support thread. Solutions seem useless only to those who don’t understand the problem. Play around with your multilingual multisite BP install for a bit and you might discover the use case. Lucky for me, you also don’t seem to have a firm grasp of the rating system here.

I do understand the problem!
Therefore I installed BuddyPress on my multilingual multisite and activated in EACH SITE (not only on main site as developers learn us). And BuddyPress is available on each of my sub-sites in different languages. The extended profile field names are available in all languages.
Without any other plugins – only BuddyPress!

You appear to have skipped a crucial part of the plugin’s description: “[…] and you are using the BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG constant […]”.

Try enabling BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG, and you may find that you didn’t understand the problem after all.

I said that I don’t understand the purpose of the plugin because I made my BuddyPress works fine in different languages in multilingual multisite (and with other options that you described) without any special plugins for it.
I DON’T use the BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG. And I will not use it because all work fine without it.
I have no problems with languages, global access of BuddyPress and network so I really didn’t and will not READ all written about somebody’s problems. Sorry.
And I will not try enabling BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG to have problems and to solve them :).
(By the way I tried it earlier and had no effect on my site with BuddyPress activated in each site. )

Okay, so I’ve just tested your setup just to be sure my plugin wasn’t obsolete. Turns out my plugin is needed even without using the multiblog constant. Three simple steps to convince yourself:

1. In the dashboard of any of your sites, go to Users -> Profile Fields. Add a new profile field, call it “country”.
2. Navigate to your BP profile page and click on edit. You will find the new field called “country”.
3. Go to a different language site, navigate to the BP profile and click on edit. The field will still be called “country” even though your site is in a different language.

So if you have an English and e.g. a German site, you may want that field to be called “Land”, the German translation of “country”. Try that without my plugin and you will (hopefully, finally) see the problem my plugin solves.

Thanks, I see the problem.
Your plugin is really useful. I will use it!
And I am very sorry for my words about useless plugin!

By the way it works fine after network activation too.

And thanks to that discussion I have found another problem that is NOT due to your plugin – it appears before I installed it and is due to way of BuddyPress activation.

Phew! I’m glad we got this sorted out. Thanks for updating your review.

The problem you have found (which according to the first version of your latest reply was the inability to edit/delete XProfile fields) is a BuddyPress bug that has been reported and fixed. As you have discovered, network activation is a workaround, but with the next BP update you will be able to edit your profile fields again regardless of how you activate BP.

Thanks for information!

Good lucks!
