BuddyPress.org

@bphelp I tried this and when I refreshed my site, all of your code appears below the admin bar on my site — above my header.

I created a new page and named it “new page here.”

Here’s your code with my info:

function bp_guest_redirect() {

global $bp; if ( bp_is_activity_component() || bp_is_groups_component() /*|| bbp_is_single_forum()*/ || bp_is_forums_component() || bp_is_blogs_component() || bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) ) { // enter the slug or component conditional here if(!is_user_logged_in()) { // not logged in user wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/new-page-here’ ); } // user will be redirect to any link to want } } add_filter(‘get_header’,’bp_guest_redirect’,1);

Am I to insert my URL as well? I tried with and without changing it and that didn’t work either.

It stripped the code again. Just place this between opening and closing php tags in the bp-custom.php file:
`
function bp_guest_redirect() {
global $bp;
if ( bp_is_activity_component() || bp_is_groups_component() /*|| bbp_is_single_forum()*/ || bp_is_forums_component() || bp_is_blogs_component() || bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) ) {
// enter the slug or component conditional here
if(!is_user_logged_in()) { // not logged in user
wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/register’ );
} // user will be redirect to any link to want
}
}
add_filter(‘get_header’,’bp_guest_redirect’,1);
`

the above reply stripped out the code so hopefully this will print out!
`

`

create a file named bp-custom.php that you will then place in yoursite/wp-content/plugins folder after you paste the following code in it:
`

`
Just change the /register in the line :
wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/register’ );
to the page you want the logged out user to be directed too!
I found this somewhere on the net so props to whomever coded it!

to install the buddypress 1.7 plugin beta and it still not working.

@jimah for BP 1.7 beta 1, go to Settings > BuddyPress > Components and enable (check) Private Messaging and Save.

this is what i have for my bp-custom.php file:
`<?php

function restrict_access(){
global $bp, $bp_unfiltered_uri;

if (!is_user_logged_in() &&
(
BP_MEMBERS_SLUG == $bp_unfiltered_uri[0] ||
BP_GROUPS_SLUG == $bp->current_component ||
BP_BLOGS_SLUG == $bp->current_component ||
‘forums’ == $bp->current_component ||
is_page_template(‘website here’)
)
) {

bp_core_redirect( get_option(‘home’) . “/private/” );

}
}

add_action( ‘wp’, ‘restrict_access’, 3 );

?>`

@xsci This is a year old thread and discusses an issue relating to BP 1.5.1;  BP is about to release version 1.7.

Please open a new thread, describe the issues you are having and what versions of BP / WP  you are using and please test any issues you are having are not custom theme related by dropping back to the bp default theme

Greetings,

Has a patch been created for this yet? I’m not the programmer and would love an easier way to update this.

Cheers!

Why not just use groups as a “region”, make them all private

@sbrajesh Thank you for this one! 😉

But I have another question, imagine I wanna to put the messages box (compose, reply, etc) in the side bar on a profile page only. As I saw, each instance of the private message comes with a url, like

Compose …/compose

Reply …/reply etc.

Could you point me for a possible solution?

Hi James, Here is an example code

http://pastebin.com/WA2rBjvH

You are right about the url part 🙂

Ok, forum does not allow me to post the html code.

After including the above code, you can use this function bp_custom_get_send_private_message_link to get the appropriate url.

Here is a simple solution. You will need to add following lines to your theme’s functions.php or bp-custom.php

`

/**
*
* @param int $to_id the user id to whom we plan to send the message
* @param string $subject : if you want to specifuy a predefined subject
* @param string $message: any predefined message
* @return string: link for sending message
*/
function bp_custom_get_send_private_message_link($to_id,$subject=false,$message=false) {

//if user is not logged, do not prepare the link
if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
return false;

$compose_url=bp_loggedin_user_domain() . bp_get_messages_slug() . ‘/compose/?’;
if($to_id)
$compose_url.=(‘r=’ . bp_core_get_username( $to_id ));
if($subject)
$compose_url.=(‘&subject=’.$subject);
if($message)
$compose_url.=(“&content=”.$message);

return wp_nonce_url( $compose_url ) ;
}

//for auto populating message content
add_filter(‘bp_get_messages_content_value’,’bp_custom_message_content_value’);
function bp_custom_message_content_value($content){

if(!empty ($content))
return $content;
$content=$_REQUEST[‘content’];

return $content;
}

//for auto populating message subject

add_filter(‘bp_get_messages_subject_value’,’bp_custom_get_messages_subject_value’);

function bp_custom_get_messages_subject_value($subject){

if(!empty($subject))
return $subject;

$subject=$_REQUEST[‘subject’];

return $subject;

}

`

and then, you can use following in your code to send the user with id:2 a message as

`
<a href="”>Send Message to xyz

`

hope that helps.

Hi @James,

I’m also looking for a solution like this and haven’t found so far. I believe I’ll have to hard code it. If I come to a solution I’ll post here!

thousands of private social networks within my site

Sure. Not everything’s out of the box so one can only be limited by skillsets and server.

Ahh, I wanted to achieve something like this as well. Like you, I’m using S2members (which I absolutely love – lets you hide/text menu items, text, posts, pages, downloadable content ect based on user role).

This is what I’ve done: For the registration process I’m using BAW invitation codes. Users need to register for a health course (using Event Espresso), and in the confirmation email they recieve an invitation code they can use to log in and access course materials.

I am looking to do the same thing and installed WP-Members. I find that it allows me to moderate members signing up which is great, but even though I have it set to block all pages and posts from non-members they are still showing. I’m using the BP default theme.

Anyone have suggestions?

Here is the site – http://forums.saintelia.com/

Given that you’re using a premium theme with customized forum templates, it would be guesswork . to help you with the styles aside from the fact that the site is private. Since you have access to the site, I suggest using Chrome where you can right click on the Topic tile and Inspect Element. The developer console would show up and highlight what you need to change.

you may found these kind of information in the language pot file

#: bp-messages/bp-messages-template.php:657
msgid “Private Message”

#: bp-activity/bp-activity-template.php:2430
msgid “Public Message”

etc

functions.php ?
