This is a WP question, not a BP question.
They will need the edit_users capability.
edit_users capability will let them do many other things that i don’t want.
I think spam and extended features have been added by buddypress therefore i am asking here.
I have a blog where i am not using buddypress plugin. I don’t see spam and extended option there.
>I think spam and extended features have been added by buddypress therefore i am asking here.
Sorry, my mistake.
Before adding the ‘spam’ link BP checks to see if
current_user_can( 'edit_user', $user_id )
Members can also be marked as spammers via the front-end.
Take a look at :
\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\single\settings.php
You might be able to adjust it to check for a cap of your choice.
Members can also be marked as spammers via the front-end.
Moderator (test user) with list_user capability can see spam option on Back-end/dashboard but he can’t see this option on front-end.
As an admin i can mark a member as spam on front-end also.
If moderator could mark a member as spam only via dashboard, i am ok with it.
I am not a coder. Can you help me? How to edit it to achieve desired results? Is there a code that i can add in functions.php?
I want this for 2 /users/moderators.
>If moderator could mark a member as spam only via dashboard, i am ok with it.
Due to the current_user_can check, afaik it is not possible via dashboard unless you hack core files.
If moderators could mark members as spam on front-end, it is also acceptable.
But Moderator (test user) with list_user capability can’t see this option on front-end.
If he clicks on settings, there should be a link Capabilities on user profile. But there is no Capabilities link.
