    @jeffsayre Hi, first of all congratulations for the plugin privacy.
    I have a small problem that maybe you can solve:
    A user ”A” is set to only friends can see the wall. But still users who are not friends can see the UPDATE AND POST box. You can hide for those who are not your friends?

  • hi @jeffsayre, same issue with me. I have a user who used “-” sign in username. This user is the only one who is not appearing in widget, so I have started experimenting by putting in widget username and nick. Nothing helped, but when I was on this user’s page, I could see that his avatar [...]

    @jeffsayre Hey Jeff..
    I read somewhere that the bp privacy component allows for restricting friend requests.
    I am trying to restrict friend request for only certain members . I am using S2 member.
    I was thinking to try this code
    = 1){ ?>

    but am unsure if it iwll work as I am not a coder.
    Do you have any thoughts on this ?

    @jeffsayre Hi Jeff, Thank’s for all your hard work on the BP Privacy Component, it works just great!
    I am currently running BuddyPress 1.2.7 and was wondering if the BP Privacy Component will work with BuddyPress 1.2.8?

    @jeffsayre all good, now batting zero with the WP-FB-AutoConnect plugin + welcome.php / lockdown enabled. must be something simple. Can’t get a handle on how to debug it. Likely the FB-AutoConnect login with fB credentials bypasses your authorization, eh? :-) dang! :-) need that to migrate.

    @jeffsayre Thanks! well done. Its a bit sketchy for me, never having been there. In summary. I copied the files, per my post in the forum, and edited the welcome.php and it looks fab.

    You rock. Now to test the rest! :-) making the initial setup work easy will get lots of people interested in this.

    best regards,

    Alex

    • You’re welcome. When you have a chance, don’t forget to give the plugin a review on its WordPress Plugin Repository page. You must be logged into wordpress.org, select the version of WordPress you are using, and click the stars. It’s as simple as that! Thanks!

      Here’f the repo page for the plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-privacy/

  • thanks @jeffsayre this adds the most wanted feature to bp.
    one question : groups privacy will be in version 1.0-RC2. What does this feature add? is it up to the bp community to take up to its development?

  • @jeffsayre First, Jeff thank you so much. I’ve been working on my startup for several years. Pursuing it has involved changing career, country, learning to speak a new language, and going broke. I’ve had two false starts with unsuitable platforms, and one with an associate who took the idea, threw huge amounts of money at it [...]
