Set maximum number of letters limit on xprofile fields [closed]

Question

I'm trying to set a limit on the numbers of letters user can add to their xprofile fields in their BuddyPress profiles.

For example, in BIO field, max limit will be 300 letters.

Please give me complete code if you can, because I have read lots of article about it but couldn't manage to find a code that works.

Thank you, Shay.

Try this code, if it will helps:

function filtered_profile_data( $args ) {

$data = bp_get_member_profile_data( $args );

$defaults = array(
    'field' => false, // Field name
    'user_id' => $user_id
);

$r = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );
extract( $r, EXTR_SKIP );

switch($field) {
    case 'Field Name': // for specific field character limit
    $max_len = 10;
    break;
    default:
    $max_len = 5;
    break;
}

echo substr( $data, 0, $max_len);

}
