 Hi,
 I have a custom field type(file) and I am trying to use cloud storage for
 the files.
 In order to do that, I am storing a meta key with the data id(not field id
 as field ids are not unique per instance of data).

 To fetch, I need to filter on the value in my display_filter method. The
 data provided in this method are only value and field id.

 We need either field id & user id to find the profile data or we need the
 data id.

 I checked and I can see that the callback is being used by


 {{{
 xprofile_filter_format_field_value_by_type( $field_value, $field_type =
 '', $field_id = '' )
 }}}

 This function itself does not have any idea about the context it is being
 used.

 Looking further, It seems 'xprofile_filter_format_field_value_by_type' is
 being used by
 the filter

 {{{
 bp_get_the_profile_field_value
 }}}

 and the function

 {{{
 xprofile_filter_format_field_value_by_field_id()
 xprofile_format_profile_field()
 }}}


 Is there anyway to resolve it in upcoming release.
