The Buddypress xProfile Rich Text Field plugin adds a Rich-text Editor custom field type to Extended Profiles in BuddyPress.
Please note: this plugin is no longer required because its functionality has been implemented since BuddyPress 2.4. Having said that, if you already have data in xProfile fields of this type, you will need to keep this plugin active. See:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5625
If you are using BuddyPress 2.0+ and your theme does not use compatibility mode (i.e it supplies its own BuddyPress template files) then you will have to update your theme’s <code>members/single/profile/edit.php</code> and <code>registration/register.php</code> (or <code>members/register.php</code>) templates so that they match the new way of displaying xProfile fields. You can refer to the relevant BuddyPress files to see how that’s now being done. These are <code>bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/profile/edit.php</code> 
and <code>bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/register.php</code>.

The BuddyPress XProfile module does not support Image type fields. The BuddyPress XProfile Custom Image Field (BPXPIF) plugin allows you to add fields of type Image to a BuddyPress user profile.
Images uploaded during User Registration can be viewed on the Manage Signups screen to allow the Site Administrator to review them before activating a new user account.
The BPXPIF plugin has a number of action hooks that allow theme and plugin developers to modify its behavior.
This plugin requires BuddyPress minimum version 1.5 and has been tested up to BuddyPress version 14.4.0
