I think your overdoing it. Just release, get feedback and iterate. That’s one of the main benefits with OS and a big commited community.
And I mean that in a good way 
If you hesitate because of massive opinions, I’m sure there’s plenty of help to get here.
@jeffsayre, I saw that WP 3.0 came out a couple of days ago. How can we help you with BP 1.2.5 so that you can release BP Privacy?
> This one in particular… https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2325… jjj has issued his own patch. I’m not sure why mine was not accepted and why his has not been implemented
Hi @jeffsayre, all,
I was just reviewing the trac thread, and if I’m understanding correctly it looks like @apeatling wants to wait until BP 1.3 before addressing this issue: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2325#comment:6 – – am I understanding correctly?
If so, does this mean that release of the privacy component will be held until BP1.3? (and if yes, is there any chance you would consider releasing it sooner, at least to those users who are willing to patch the core themselves and promise not to bug you with any support requests? 
)
@jeffsayre, Are there any other issues that you need help with besides trac ticket #2325 before you’ll be able to release BP Privacy?
Any updates on this? I need to have some sort of privacy plugin before releasing my community.
@jeffsayre can the privacy component plugin hide activity stream for a single user? has anyone else here done this before?
@michaelha
Yes, the Privacy Component is a user-centric component, allowing a site’s members to control which pieces of their personal data they share with the world.
Folks I’m sure Jeff will update and hopefully release the first stable version soon but bear in mind that it’s pretty involved plugin dealing with an area that is quite tricky so requires careful testing before releasing in the wild. We must take care not to impose too much on plugin authors that are essentially working for free and giving what amounts to a great deal of productive coding time to the community (although I do hope that users of this plugin do indeed donate towards Jeff’s time spent coding this) Jeff also did state elsewhere that he is, at this moment, very busy, so we must be patient
Why isn’t Automattic doing anything?! Privacy/security should have been a core feature.
Not sure what Automattic would or should be doing? Features that perhaps ought to be part of the core is on the agenda to be discussed at the dev chat with a view to identifying some of the work that might be suitable for bringing into the core and I would expect something like Jeff’s privacy plugin to be at the top of that list.
I know it’s far more complex than I could possibly imagine so I certainly don’t intend to come off as impatient. But does there happen to be an accurate ETA for this? Right now I’m using the s2Member plugin (I think that’s what it’s called) and it works okay but I would so much rather have something native….
As far as I could tell BP isn’t implementing it officially any time soon (1.4+) so I’d love to see this come to fruition.
hi @jeffsayre any updates ? sorry could not stop from asking this question. its the most wanted feature in BP
Hey all-
I’m trying to create a very simple plugin workaround but I’m doing something wrong in the coding. Would someone here more experienced than I be willing to help me figure out what I’m doing wrong? I’m basically just trying to redirect non-logged in users to a specific page that tells them they need to be logged in. This was inspired by the BP Profile as Homepage plugin.
But right now I’m getting this error:
`Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/content/65/3511365/html/anthempages/wp-content/plugins/BP Privacy Redirect/bp_privacy_redirect.php on line 71`
I may be way off but it may just be a simple fix.
Any thoughts? Anyone? Pretty please? (I’m not above begging!)
`<?php
function members_logged_in_only()
{ global $bp;
if(is_user_logged_in() && $SERVER{‘REQUEST_URI’}==’/activity/’){
/*user is logged in*/
}else{
wp_redirect(get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/welcome’);
}
function members_logged_in_only()
{ global $bp;
if(is_user_logged_in() && $SERVER{‘REQUEST_URI’}==’/members/’){
/*user is logged in*/
}else{
wp_redirect(get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/welcome’);
}
function groups_logged_in_only()
{ global $bp;
if(is_user_logged_in() && $SERVER{‘REQUEST_URI’}==’/groups/’){
/*user is logged in*/
}else{
wp_redirect(get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/welcome’);
}
function forums_logged_in_only()
{ global $bp;
if(is_user_logged_in() && $SERVER{‘REQUEST_URI’}==’/forums/’){
/*user is logged in*/
}else{
wp_redirect(get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/welcome’);
};
?>`
has any progress been made on this?
