BuddyPress.org

– Responsive on all devices
Yes.

– Users to be able to pay for messaging and/or subscription
No, requires a membership plugin.

– User should be able to register, to have public and private profile also public and private photos.
Register, yes. Profiles are public unless you add custom code. Photos gallery requires custom code or there may be a third-party plugin.

– Users to be able to edit and add custom fields on their profile page
Yes.

– Admin should also be able to edit those fields/profile pages
Yes.

– Users to be able to filter search results, based on those fields
Yes, by using the BP Profile Search plugin

– IP Geo detection function? Showing users in your area?
No. Requires custom coding or perhaps a third-party plugin.

– Multilanguage support.
Yes.

– Are gifts or badges also available/active, which are to be given on a subscription or user rank basis?
No, maybe a third-party plugin.

– Any performance issues? Browsing experience should be smooth.
Depends on your hosting resources and the number of active users.

@jamesmct I do not think BuddyPress have any current option to manage all pending membership for all private group at single location.

I’ve just suggest it, above. To make the default group status private as you asked, you can add that to your bp-custom.php and it should do the trick for you.

I don’t think overloading that file is the way to go for the default status change, you can set the default new group status using the bp_get_new_group_status filter, so you could do something like this:

add_filter( 'bp_get_new_group_status', 'venutius_new_group_status_change' );

function venutius_new_group_status_change( $status ) {
    return 'private';
}

Could you be more elaborate? Tournaments on what?
Did you have any Tournaments plugin in mind yet?
With buddypress users are linked it depends on private or public profile.

If you mean the Private Message button at the top of a profile page, then place this code in bp-custom.php or in your theme > functions.php

function lindsay_profile_button() {
?>
	<div class="generic-button"><a href="https://google.com" >go to google</a></div>
<?php
}
add_action( 'bp_member_header_actions', 'lindsay_profile_button', 25 );

If ‘Private Messaging’ means something else, then you need to talk to the creators of that code because it does not come from BuddyPress.

Did you try to narrow down the issue ?

For example:

Did you try deactivating LH Private BuddyPress ?
If the menus return, then you should follow up with the creators of the LH Private BuddyPress plugin.

Did you try switching from Nouveau to the other template pack – BuddyPress Legacy ?

Thank you.

My first suggestion will be to try disabling the LH Private BuddyPress, if that does not solve it you should try deactivating Youzer and BP Force Profile photo(assuming bp-custom.php) and child theme’s functions.php does not have any redirection.

Please give it a try and let me know if any of the above resolves the issue?

is there anything special about the site? Like any redirection setup or content restriction?

LH Private BuddyPress? Restricts non logged in users from accessing other users profile, activity etc

…are you using any content restriction/redirection plugin?

wp super cache
youzer
title remover
short codes for buddypress
super pwa
lh private buddypress
gutenberg
font awesome 4 menus
child theme configurator
buddypress global search
buddypress activity autoloader
buddypress
bp force profile photo

It’s okay to place a call for devs here.
It’s nice to see the occasional person who doesn’t want free work.

Because there is no way to do a private message on these forums, typically we make sure the OP includes a method to contact them.
Then we close the thread so that any discussion takes place elsewhere.

@elichersky333 – how can you be contacted ?

Could anyone give experiences or comparisons between iFlyChat and BP Better Messages? I need a solution that gives users the ability to have private chats and group chats with the ability to send attachments. Iflychat is expensive (if including the group chat option) and I’m concerned about the logging of private information, BP Better Messages seems like a good option but I wanted to get feedback first. Alternatively, if anyone has experience with any other solutions, that would be really appreciated too.

Hi !

Prashant,

Today I see your profile and some how I go to this page where you post this plugin and I see that on WordPress plugin official page “https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-custom-functionalities/” and here has the developer name is yours !

Congrats ! to you man for making this plugin. I installed and it’s very useful me. Specially it’s one feature “Private profile – that means one member can not see other members profile.”

Thanks man,

Keep it up !

Regards

Private group activities are by default excluded from the sitewide activity so this plugin already excludes them. No need to do any settings, it works out of the box.

Thanks

When I click on “private message” in another users profile I am redirected to my general “messages” page…

Yes that is BP behavior. And I agree that it doesn’t make much sense.
This plugin opens a pop-up instead: BuddyProfileMessageUX Free
