Plugin Review – Simple BuddyPress Profile Privacy

https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-buddypress-profile-privacy/

Version tested: 0.7.8

Simple BuddyPress Privacy is a plugin that allows BuddyPress users to choose exactly who can see their profile page. They can choose display it to all (public), logged in members, friends only or just themselves.

Following download and activation, the plugin adds a new setting into the Dashboard>>Settings>>BuddyPress>>Options page that allows the feature to be enabled.

Once enabled users will find a new page at Profile>>Settings>>Privacy:

The plugin seems to work out of the box with no issues, it’s a valuable option for membership sites to offer and enhances the range of options available to BuddyPress admin. I give it 10 out of 10!

Very nice idea and job...

Very nice idea to have possibility to hide profile in buddypress directory... [...]A lot of my members did not want to appear in this directory and as well, in Google directory ! There is only one thing i'd like to have in options : have possibility, as administrator, to activate or not, for all my members, the option "Who can view you profil" Is it possible as well, to redirect to a special page or root web site when someone try to access to a hiden profil ? Thank's again for this job & work I hope now to have an update 😉 Thierry Read more »

Very good plugin, has a small issue

The plugin works fine and is very useful, as it provides an important aspect that is missing from BuddyPress. There is the issue that José Caldeira pointed out in support, but thankfully he also provides a patch. I'm sure it will be fixed for good in the next update.

Perfect plugin for my needs

SBPP is the perfect plugin for my needs. Had some small compatibility issues but the DEV pushed an update and they are all solved.

I've been setting up and managing BuddyPress social networks for a few years. I moved from Ning and other platforms and have come to BuddyPress looking to make sites with similar features to them.

Plugin Review – Mass Messaging in BuddyPress

Mass Messaging in BuddyPress, is pretty much the opposite of the alternative Mass Messaging plugin – Mass Messaging for BuddyPress by Alkaweb. What I mean by this is this; whatever Alkawebs plugin does in the back-end, Mass Messaging in BuddyPress does from the front-end. Both of these plugins allow site admin to send mass messages to all, or groups of users in BuddyPress. What Mass Messaging in BuddyPress does extra, is to provide the ability to allow that privilege to other user types, and also it has the ability to track if the message has been read.

Plugin – BP Profile Activity Wall

BP Profile Activity Wall is a simple plugin that creates a Facebook - like 'Wall' of all users activity - personal, groups, mentions, friends etc. It also makes this the default landing tab for the users profile and has options to remove the other tabs and redirect logged in users from home to their activity page.

Hi, Venutius

It’s a pleasure writing to the founder of the plugin I found closest to easing my stress.

First, I must say that this plugin is a savior. I was looking for a plugin I could use to control who writes a message to who and I found this plugin, however, I noticed it did not show full option (by role type of the receiving end) . I wanted to say Subscriber can write to (Drop down) check all the other roles and leave the excluded role. But, the plugin only shows all site users and admin only. I would be glad if an update will be rolled out to chose which of the roles and not all as a bundle.
