You may want to try this code

hope that helps.

You mean you don’t want the Admin to be included in the list of members in members directory?

Hey @davidveldt this should do it if you are using the default theme. Otherwise you should integrate as you see fit.

theme/registration/register.php

You can add any groups or fields as you require. The groups and fields here are arbitrary.

` ‘player’, 4 => ‘coach’, 5 =>’parent’, 6 => ‘instructor’); ?>

`

Create some profile groups to cater for each role. You can find the group id within the BuddyPress admin… In the url bar or investigate your database.

You should set-up the $roles array above to match your requirements.

Within the loop you can show any fields you have created within that xprofile group. If you have a select box within that group you would add the following code as outlined in the bp-default register.php

`

<label for="”>

<select name="” id=””>

`

Finally add the following jQuery where you house any other code of similar ilk.

`
jQuery(“.role-fields”).hide();
$roles = jQuery(“#roles”);
jQuery(“#field_2”).change(function()
{
$role = jQuery(this).val().toLowerCase();
jQuery(“.role-fields”).hide();
jQuery(“#” + $role).toggle();
});
`

Here’s a pastebin for all that above. http://pastebin.com/QFdTdstz

No need for tabs or accordion this time.

Hope that helps you on the Road.

anyone found a solution to this having same issue of users being considered blog owner in buddypress multisite setup. admin bar says my sites
mainsite.com
actuallsite.com -> user registered

Mainsite does not belong to user how i get rid of link on bar and profile as it does this for all users.

Just read you don’t want to edit home.php. There isn’t a filter for privacy like there is with messages for showing profile sections. Messages and xprofile fields has logic for output and can be filtered but the actual page needs a code edit.

Install BuddyPress Profile Privacy plugin

removing the button from the groups index page alone will not stop your members from being able to create groups…

have you seen this…to limit group creation to admins

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/limit-group-creation-to-admin/

If you just want to hide the button…maybe something like

`<?php if (is_user_logged_in() && current_user_can('administrator'))>
your button stuff
`

@igotmore There’s also this other plugin for that plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-ninja/

I tried your method, mercime, but I can’t get it to work, I only got the code on the top of my site

I put the code in my Theme functions (functions.php)
should i put it in buddypress/bp-activity/bp-activity-functions.php or ?
I’m noob in codes & coding, but I really need this, so I hope someone will help me get it done

Hey Magi182 I put that code in my functions.php and still no changes ? any other way?

Using WP 3.2.1. & BP 1.5.1

this should work for excluding all super admins:

`

<?php while ( bp_members() ) : bp_the_member();
if( !in_array( bp_get_member_user_login(), get_super_admins() ) ) {
?>`

i tried to remove Viisit Radom Member, Random Group And Random Site from BuddyBar successfully, Here is link for you how to make changes, edit BuudyBar.

Hope this will help.

You need to clarify more, you can just re enable the groups component in the admin. if the hide the create button try going to the URL /groups/create

OK so I’ve had the same problem and have built a very clumsy workaround.

PROBLEM: When the user click the email verification it sends them to verify.php and logs them in to WP but my Buddypress doesn’t know they are logged in and asks them to login. If the user just ignores the login request there is no problem but users don’t do that so they try to login and get the same “error..please provide a valid activation key” message because the account is already active.

MY RUBBISH ANSWER: The only thing that worked for me was to hide the BP admin bar and handle login links manually then change the text on the verify.php to a simple ‘congratulations, you’re in’ message. The downside of this is that I lost the use of my BP-Sliding-Login-Panel which I love. so I would be very grateful for a real solution to this.

define(‘BP_DISABLE_ADMIN_BAR’, true); + Hide admin bar for logged out users NO works

There is one problem with that solution, it does not hide the user from groups

The reason chaging the users status to 99 will hide them is because it marks the user as a spammer. Which means only an admin can view their profile. However, thus far it has been the only way I have been able to accomplish the task of hiding the administrator.

There is a ‘hide admin bar for logged out users’ option. But I want the bar on regular BP sites, I just did not want it on a domain-mapped site that is totally separate (though running on the same WP multisite installation).

http://blog.netweblogic.com/php/wordpress-php/remove-admin-bar-plugin/ did the trick for me.

Maybe this can help ?

also remember that privacy controls don’t apply to Admin. Admin can see everything. Log in as a regular user and then test.

thanks for the reply @pcwriter

If you don’t mind I need a little more assistance with this (as I’m not code savvy)

how do I find this ‘child-theme’ you mention
do I go to cpanel..? or in my admin (dashboard)

Also, I do not want to restrict ‘members’ viewing, only their ‘profiles’
