Overview
BP Profile Search is a powerful plugin designed for BuddyPress to enhance member search and directory features. It offers a versatile form builder that allows users to create custom member search forms by adding, editing, rearranging, and removing search fields including profile fields, user metadata, user groups, and taxonomies. The plugin utilizes the [bps_directory] shortcode to customize the BuddyPress Members directory or create new member directories, each tailored to specific search criteria. Users can display these search forms in various locations like sidebars, widget areas, or within posts/pages using the [bps_form] shortcode. Once a search is conducted, the results are shown in the form's target directory with features such as active filters, member details sections, and enhanced sorting options. The plugin's templates are fully customizable, ensuring it can adapt to specific user needs. With the additional support for distance-based searches via the BP Distance Search companion plugin, BP Profile Search provides a comprehensive solution for managing and navigating member directories in BuddyPress environments.

This plugin does exactly what I want, which is to allow users to search for members using attribute/profiel field filters, using whatever filter you’ve set (eg age, gender). Puzzling why Buddypress didn’t build this feature into their plugin already but fear no more, this plugin can do it for you. Thank you Andrea!
