| 1 | | A while ago I wrote [https://github.com/lmoffereins/bp-xprofile-for-user-groups a plugin to assign XProfile field(groups) to BuddyPress groups]. Since BP 2.2 my thought was along this topic to implement the same logic, but for member types. I did not realize it yet, but how would an eventual core implementation differ from the logic present in that plugin? |

| | 3 | My plugin distinguishes two implications: |
| | 4 | * '''applicability''' - who has to provide data for the field(group), at the Edit Profile page? |
| | 5 | * '''visibility''' - who can see the entered data for the field(group), at the View Profile page? |
| | 6 | The group assignment is done on the edit page of the field(group). |

| | 8 | To be clear: I'd like to help out with some of the code to make this happen. Yet, I'm not sure how it is envisioned by the core devs. |
