I have installed buddypress and bbpress both in my website http://dreamhomeguide.in where users can create topics on different forums. Now when admin replies any topic other users can easily check the profile page of admin. Is there any way by which I can hide the profile page of admin from other users?

Hi @dreamh11,

Try adding this to your theme’s functions.php file:
```
function hide_admin_profile() {

    // Bail if this is not a profile.
    if ( ! bp_is_user_profile() )
        return;

    // This assumes the member ID of the admin user is 1.
    if ( 1 == bp_displayed_user_id() ) {
        // We're trying to view the admin's profile so redirect to the homepage.
        wp_redirect( home_url() );
        exit;
    }
}
add_action( 'init', 'hide_admin_profile' );
```

There are a few issues with that solution.
1. ‘1’ can’t view their own profile
2. What if there are multiple admins

Suggestion:
```
function hide_admin_profiles() {

    // Bail if this is not a profile.
    if ( ! bp_is_user_profile() )
        return;

    if ( ! is_super_admin() ) {
         if ( is_super_admin( bp_displayed_user_id() ) ) {
             wp_redirect( home_url() );
             exit;
         }
    }
}
add_action( 'init', 'hide_admin_profiles' );
```
