Description

When an xprofile field is deleted, the field is removed from bp_xprofile_fields, but the corresponding data is not removed from bp_xprofile_data. The upshot is that members_search finds both the old and the new data, resulting in incorrect search results.

Hi @mike80222

Thanks a lot for your report. I confirm the issue. In the above PR, I'm adding a checkbox to the Delete field confirmation screen to opt-out field data removal. By default, deleted field data should be deleted I agree.

xProfile: let the admin also remove data when deleting a field

Add a checkbox, active by default, informing deleting a field from the xProfile field Administration screen will also remove corresponding data. Opting out of this checkbox will let data in place.

Removing a deleted field corresponding data is improving Members search results consistency.

Props mike80222
