hi @fencer04,

thank for sharing your work. Well done, but it needs some revision (sorry).
At his activation on 2 test sites (one with 4.5.3/bp 2.6.1, other 4.6/bp2.6.2) i got a notice.
Array to string conversion in buddypress/bp-core/classes/class-bp-core-nav.php on line 279from

sbpp04_privacy_check( )	..\plugin.php:525
sbpp04_privacy_redirect( )	..\buddypress-profile-privacy.php:176
bp_core_remove_nav_item( )	..\buddypress-profile-privacy.php:184
BP_Core_Nav->delete_nav( )	..\bp-core-buddybar.php:798

Another point concerning UI/UX is the Private button appearing on buddybar.
On this tab, a default message says Friends Only.
USERNAME has chosen to limit profile access to friends only.
That’s wrong! Because this appear on each profile, even if the owner hasn’t setup anything about his profile privacy.

So far i understand its fonctionality, this plugin let each member decide to show or not his whole profile page to friends or members only or to everyone (bp default).

– imo this tab should show “This profile is private” to anybody who is concerned by a privacy setting and should not appear at all if “Everyone” is set.
– the original BP Add as friend button on profile header or members directory is still there. This means that there is no need to go on Private tab to ask forfriendship.
This is a little confusing !

If the plugin is to extend profile settings, it should appear in profile settings only. And as it doesn’t superseed BP, there is no real reason to give him an extra tab on buddybar outside of the settings scope. A template notice could be enough to tell visitors what’s going on on such a profile.

Just my 2 cents.

Hi,

two snippets to remove profile and group items.

function bpex_hide_profile_menu_tabs() {

	if( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) :

	if ( bp_is_user() && !is_super_admin() && !bp_is_my_profile() ) {
	//	BP's profile main menu items. Comment those to show.
	//	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'profile' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'friends' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'groups' );
	//	exist only if you use bbPress
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' ); 

	//	BP's profile main menu items. Comment those to show.
	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'personnal' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'mentions' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'favorites' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'friends' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'groups' );
	}
	endif; 
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_hide_profile_menu_tabs', 15 );

function bpex_remove_group_tabs() {  

	if ( ! bp_is_group() ) {
		return;
	}

	$slug = bp_get_current_group_slug();

		// hide items to all users except site admin
	if ( !is_super_admin() ) {

	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $slug, 'members' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $slug, 'send-invites' );
	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $slug, 'admin' );
	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $slug, 'forum' );
	}

}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'bpex_remove_group_tabs' );

Add this snippet to bp-custom.php and give it a try.

function bpex_hide_profile_menu_tabs() {

	if( bp_is_active( 'xprofile' ) ) :

	if ( bp_is_user() && !is_super_admin() && !bp_is_my_profile() ) {
	//	BP's profile main menu items. Comment those to show.
	//	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'profile' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'friends' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'groups' );
	//	exist only if you use bbPress
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' ); 

	//	BP's profile main menu items. Comment those to show.
	//	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'personnal' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'mentions' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'favorites' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'friends' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'groups' );
	}
	endif;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpex_hide_profile_menu_tabs', 15 );

Hello,

Working perfect for subnav items, but not for main nav in my case. Can’t get this to work:

function my_remove_group_tab() {

    bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'send-invites', 'groups' );

}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'my_remove_group_tab', 9 ); 

I don’t now what I’m missing here.

Appreciate any help.

Thanks, @danbp!

You are right: only the fallback was working bp_core_redirect( bp_get_group_permalink( groups_get_current_group() ) );.
Adding the $component (which defaults to ‘members’) is the key:

bp_core_remove_subnav_item( $parent_nav_slug, $tab, 'groups' );

These functions are located in ‘bp-core/bp-core-buddybar.php’.
I’d also want to get rid of ‘send-invites’ in group primary navigation, but this is not working for me:

bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'send-invites', 'groups' );

Thank you,
Javier

try this and let me know if it works in bp 2.6 for u or not

function my_remove_em_nav() {
	global $bp;
      bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'events' );
      bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'settings', 'profile' );

}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'my_remove_em_nav' );

@bryanbatcher,

you can use a function within bp-custom.php
Something like:

function bpfr_remove_nav_tabs() {

	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'messages' ); 
   // and so on for each item you want to remove

}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpfr_remove_nav_tabs', 15 );

For the header thing, see template file and made your modification from within a child-theme.
– profile pic and username: bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/member-header.php
– cover image: bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/members/single/profile.php

Give this a try: (add to bp-custom.php) 1) & 2):

function bpfr_hide_tabs() {
global $bp;

	if ( bp_is_user() && !is_super_admin() ) {
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'notifications' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'messages', 'compose' );
	}
	
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpfr_hide_tabs', 15 );

3) With BP and xprofile component activated, a user doesn’t need access to WP dashboard. He can change his profile credentials from front-end.
Easiest way would be to use this plugin.

Retrieving them the possibility to change their email is anyway not a good idea. What happen when a user changed from yahoo to gmail, but can’t login because he lost his password ? Where will the new pwd be sent ?

Perhaps you have also to remove this from the BP usermenu on toolbar ?
Here’s how you can do it:

function admin_bar_remove_this(){
global $wp_admin_bar;
	$wp_admin_bar->remove_node('my-account-messages-compose');
}
add_action('wp_before_admin_bar_render','admin_bar_remove_this');

For standard BP profile tabs, try:

function zhubr_remove_profile_nav_item( $nav ) { 
	
    if ( ! bp_is_my_profile() )
	$nav = '';
		
    return $nav;
}
add_filter('bp_get_displayed_user_nav_notifications', 'zhubr_remove_profile_nav_item', 20, 1 );
add_filter('bp_get_displayed_user_nav_groups', 'zhubr_remove_profile_nav_item', 20, 1 );
// add additional calls for other tabs

To remove custom tabs, try:

function zhubr_remove_custom_profile_tab() {
	
    if ( bp_is_user() && ! bp_is_my_profile() )
	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'events' );
	
}
add_action( 'bp_ready', 'zhubr_remove_custom_profile_tab', 25 );

Try

function bpfr_hide_tabs() {
global $bp;
	 /**
	 * class_exists() & bp_is_active are recommanded to avoid problems during updates 
	 * or when Component is deactivated
	 */

	if( class_exists( 'bbPress' ) || bp_is_active ( 'groups' ) ) :

	if ( bp_is_user() && !is_super_admin() && !bp_is_my_profile() ) {
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'groups' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'groups' );
	}
	endif;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpfr_hide_tabs', 15 );

@paragbhagwat,

try this:

function bpfr_hide_tabs() {
global $bp;
	 /**
	 * class_exists() & bp_is_active are recommanded to avoid problems during updates 
	 * or when Component is deactivated
	 */

	if( class_exists( 'bbPress' ) || bp_is_active ( 'groups' ) ) :

	if ( bp_is_user() && !is_super_admin() && !bp_is_my_profile() ) {
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'groups' );
		bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' );
		bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'groups' );
	}
	endif;
}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'bpfr_hide_tabs', 15 );

This sounds like what I am trying to do.

I have a role “Partners” and the following function

function remove_nav_items() {
    bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'notifications' );
    bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'groups' );
    bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'forums' );
    bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity' );

}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'remove_nav_items');

How can I make an “if” statement with this function?
example: if role= ‘partners’ do remove_nav_items()

I am having trouble figuring out how to get the user role of a logged in user.

@tafmakura,

try

function bpfr_hide_top_nav() {	
if( bp_is_active('xprofile' ) )	
	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'profile' );
}
add_action( 'bp_ready', 'bpfr_hide_top_nav' );

function remove_bp_tab() {
global $bp;
bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'activity' );

}
add_action( 'bp_setup_nav', 'remove_bp_tab', 999 );

You can use this, this will remove your activity tab from member profile

you apply a condition to bp_core_remove_subnav_item function.

2 function to do that.
1) define the condition
2) remove the nav/subnav item

function bpfr_hide_nav() {
	$retval = false;
	
	if ( bp_is_user() && ! bp_is_my_profile() ) {
		$retval = true;
	}	
	return $retval;
}

function bpfr_hide_profile_nav() {
	
	// stop if condition is not filed
	if ( ! bpfr_hide_nav() ) {
		return;
	}
	bp_core_remove_nav_item( 'friends' ); // bp topnav
	bp_core_remove_subnav_item( 'activity', 'friends' ); //bp subnav (my activities, my groups, etc)
}
add_action( 'bp_ready', 'bpfr_hide_profile_nav' );

Add this to bp-custom.php
