In the video the user is not activating the account ? All the fields filled by the user during registration are saved in the wp_signups table and applied on the profile fields when the user's account is activated. Please activate the user's account in WP admin - Users - Signups and then edit it and check the extended settings. p.s : This is standard BuddyPress registration process.

share site link and WP admin details. Ensure WP admin - Settings - BuddyPress- Components - xprofile is active. Are you using any third part addon for skipping the member activation ? I would need to check the database on why the assigned fields are not generated for the user. Here's how things should work : 1. User signs up. 2. An entry is made in the signups section with an array storing all profile field data. 3. User activates the account, a WP user is created and all the profile data is assigned to him. Now, I think some third party code/plugin is automatically activating the user without assigning the fields to member profile.

We will need to capture the signup ID of the user and then capture the saved profile fields in the meta and apply them.

$signups_query = BP_Signup::get( array(
			'include' => $ids,
		) );

if ( ! empty( $signup->meta['profile_field_ids'] ) ) {
  // apply the profile fields
}

I will share detailed code in the next response.
