This was the problem,
This is test script. One line of PHP code:
https://seeme.baby/test.php

503 error in result.
Because function ‘transliterator_transliterate’ failed to execute on your server.

Exactly the same PHP script on my own server working properly:
https://takereal.com/test.php

File ‘wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-core\classes\class-bp-attachment.php’ updated
to prevent ‘transliterator_transliterate’ execution.

old line #297:
if ( function_exists( ‘transliterator_transliterate’ ) && seems_utf8( $retval ) ) {

My version:
if ( 0 && function_exists( ‘transliterator_transliterate’ ) && seems_utf8( $retval ) ) {

Function ‘transliterator_transliterate’ used in the ‘class-bp-attachment.php’ only.

File name sanitized in another way, without ‘transliterator_transliterate’ function.
‘class-bp-attachment.php’ has code to sanitize file name
without ‘transliterator_transliterate’ function.

From logs gives this error
2022-08-26 10:06:27.739089 [NOTICE] [566017] [5.203.157.99:2859:HTTP2-1847#seeme.baby-443] oops! 503 Service Unavailable

from debug i get

That’s what I started with: disabling plugins one by one, but that didn’t show any issues. I noticed the code was only appearing on Buddypress pages, so then I kept Buddypress active and one-by-one activated, checked, and then deactivated each plugin until the code reappeared.

It takes a super long time, but it’s really the only way to really find issues like this (that I know of).

I also use the Health and Troubleshooting plugin to do this, so the site doesn’t appear any different to anyone non-admins. That means people can keep using the site (I have courses with Learndash, so this is a big one!) while troubleshooting

Thank you Michael, it works using Code Snippets with this code:
/**
* Exclude Users from BuddyPress Members List by WordPress role.
*
* @param array $args args.
*
* @return array
*/
function buddydev_exclude_users_by_role( $args ) {
// do not exclude in admin.
if ( is_admin() && ! defined( ‘DOING_AJAX’ ) ) {
return $args;
}

$excluded = isset( $args[‘exclude’] ) ? $args[‘exclude’] : array();

if ( ! is_array( $excluded ) ) {
$excluded = explode( ‘,’, $excluded );
}

$role = ‘administrator’;// change to the role to be excluded.
$user_ids = get_users( array( ‘role’ => $role, ‘fields’ => ‘ID’ ) );

$excluded = array_merge( $excluded, $user_ids );

$args[‘exclude’] = $excluded;

return $args;
}

add_filter( ‘bp_after_has_members_parse_args’, ‘buddydev_exclude_users_by_role’ );

Thank you Michael,
It doesn’t work. I have tried the second code for admnins and also the first code by excluding users by ID (numbers of the admins I want to hide).
Tried at the root of folder Plugins and BuddyPress, also into the code directly in functions.php of my theme Sydney… nothing works.
Hoping you or someone have another idea ?
