Hide member page of specific roles

Hey guys,

Would anyone know how to hide and disable member pages based on their role type. (e.g. yoursite.com/members/username)

Goal: if a member is set to a WordPress Administrator role, we would like to make his/her page inaccessible from the public

Purpose: while we have been able to hide specific roles from displaying in the member directory, their member/page is still visible if you know the URL.

Similar to how we can make the WordPress Author page inaccessible, we’d like to do the same for BuddyPress’s equivalent Member page.

Thanks in advance

Try this:
```
add_action( 'template_redirect', function() {
    if ( user_can( bp_displayed_user_id(), 'manage_options' ) ) {
        // This member is an administrator.
        bp_core_redirect( bp_core_get_root_domain() );
    }
} );
```

Thanks very much Henry, greatly appreciated.

Apologies for the delay – we have since added Buddydev.com’s Member Types Pro and Profile Visibility Manager so that we can update access on the fly with the various types of users we are growing into.

I’ve save your code for future though and thx again!
