S2 Member and BuddyPress both have a username field

I am running the latest versions of WordPress, BuddyPress, and S2Member. I am using custom registration fields for S2, and integrated them with the BP registration form.
Set "Display Name" during registration is set to No.

However, now the registration form has two fields marked username, and it's somewhat confusing. I was wondering if there's any way to remove the S2 username field and just use the BuddyPress username field.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Could you post the URL to the registration page or a screenshot of it, please? Also the version numbers for WordPress, s2Member and BuddyPress.

I'll mention this to Jason, who's been working on fixing the compatibility with the lastest release BuddyPress, which included many changes.

Yes, please post a link if you can. I don't see anyway for this to be possible, so I'll need to see it in action to get a better idea of what's happening on your installation please.

Apologies for the late reply. A few complications have popped up, and I was trying to fix them before I got back with you.

I thought about my previous question, and realized that it would be better to try and resolve it at BuddyPress, since it now seems to be more of BP’s problem. I’m still working on getting an answer from them.


However, I do have another problem in regards to the registration page. I am using integrated profile fields. For some reason, when I try to use a long title for the first custom field (i.e., ‘Full Name’), the title ends up above the Buddypress fields. A shorter title (i.e., ‘Name’) shows up just fine. I’ve tried changing the CSS, but I haven’t been able to prevent this from happening.

My site isn't up yet, so I took a screenshot of the problem:

Thanks for the follow-up.

Yea, this definitely looks like a CSS problem to me. Please run a test against the default BuddyPress theme and see if the problem goes away? Or, try fiddling a bit with the width of your Full Name field, which appears to have separate styling applied to it, forcing it to a 100% width, or something along those lines. It's hard for me to tell in just a screenshot, but you can probably inspect this further on your development side using Firebug.
