Prevent subscribers from having access on others profile page

Hi,

I found the following function that prevents anyone from accessing admin’s profile:
```
function bpfr_hide_admins_profile() {
global $bp;
if(bp_is_profile && $bp->displayed_user->id == 1 && $bp->loggedin_user->id != 1) :
wp_redirect( home_url() );
exit;
endif;
}
add_action( 'wp', 'bpfr_hide_admins_profile', 1 );
```
Unfortunately, it is based on user id. I need something that is based on user role.
What I need is to prevent subscribers from having access on any other’s user profile page.

Thank you in advance for any help

Try this (not tested):
```
function billysgtr_hide_others_profile() {
    if ( bp_is_profile() && bp_loggedin_user_id() !== bp_displayed_user_id() ) :
        wp_redirect( home_url() );
        exit;
     endif;
}
add_action( 'wp', 'billysgtr_hide_others_profile', 1 );
```

Or use current_user_can('subscriber') instead of !== check for IDs.

Hi Slava, thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, it didn’t work. I did that using if current_user_can(‘subscriber’) inside the buddypress/members/index.html
