Cool, glad to hear its coming along. I appreciate your attention to it.

Yes, it was from a ‘What’s new’ box. And the new (unapproved) user that I saw was listed in the Members sidebar widget.

Just a FWIW, but in a perfect world, after more testing, the Private Network might be too locked down for our use. The Moderation would be better. The rationale for us is that it would be fine for new (unapproved) users to see the ‘Public’ (Privacy=’Anyone’) posts in the Activity Stream. But not interact with them (comment, like), or add their own comments to the Stream.

Also, allowing them to at least see whats out there in the BP pages gives them a chance to see the various Groups and Forums they might be interested in. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks again for your work on this.

I just modified the site to test in the ‘Private Network’ mode. That could be doable. I like the way it shows all the profile page icons, but they are not functional.

I also think the reg process and messaging is very well done.

One issue there though. In my testing, the new user (not approved), while restricted from seeing any of the information from/of others (good), is still ABLE to post in the stream and have it seen by everyone else (notsogood). That, of course, is potentially really spammy.

The (unapproved) new user is also added to the users list. It seems it would be better to keep them in the BPRO approval queue instead.

Lastly, I am going to test with a potentially conflicting privacy plugin deactivated, and will followup.

Thanks.

I made a change to how you can access (removed Login plugin). You can try again, and I will send you a quick email.

A/O, also, yes, feel free to hijack users.

Hey Michael,

I thought I recognized you from somewhere – didn’t make the AppPresser connection. Great product, loads of potential, wish I could have gained better traction with it. I think I got stuck on PhoneGap. I need to look again before all my licenses expire. 🙂

WRT this matter: First _bprwg_is_moderated is set as true

Secondly, you may have a point with other plugin functionality. I have about a dozen BP plugins in place (plus way too many others). I know I deactivated some in testing, I’ll continue to look at that. (edit: have deactivated all BP plugins excl: BP and BPRO, issue remains).

Re: ‘adding public message where’ – If the New User goes to /members/existingmember/ the New User can see the existing user profile and the buttons that say ‘public message’ and ‘private message’ (as well as the aforementioned add friend) as referenced, the Public message button was visible by the NewUser in the existing user profile, but clicking on it gave the White Screen of Death. (‘oh by the way’ update: after deactivated all the other BP plugins, NewUser is now ABLE to post a public message update to an existing user profile page – ooops – go figure).

Here are the BP plugins I had active, but a conflict here doesn’t seem to be the issue.

BP Group Hierarchy Propagate by Christian Wach version 0.3.2,
BP Group Hierarchy by David Dean version 1.4.3,
BP Group Organizer by David Dean version 1.0.8,
BP Profile Search by Andrea Tarantini version 4.0.3,
BP Registration Options by Brian Messenlehner and Michael Beckwith of WebDevStudios, Jibbius version 4.2.4,

Buddypress Xprofile Custom Fields Type by donmik version 2.1.5,
BuddyPress by The BuddyPress Community version 2.2.0,

Lastly, happy to provide you access. Just know it is a total – I mean really – sandbox site… so no laughing at it. 🙂

LMK where you want credentials sent.

Thanks for your efforts here.

To clarify, I was seeing Items posted in Public Group 1 fed downstream into Private subGroup 1.1 – when the User posting was NOT a member of subGroup 1.1. That was the issue.

I agree with your statement above
‘I don’t understand why members of “(Private) subGroup 1.1” would want to see only activity items from its own members in “(Public) Group 1”.’
… they should see all member content in the PUBLIC group, but not (non-member) Public Group content IN the Private subGroup.

Strangely, as I try to replicate the issue today, I can’t. Yet I still see the comments I made yesterday in the stream that created this impression. In all the testing, I may have had a setting tweaked. I think I’ll step away for a bit and come back to it. 🙂

Regardless, thanks again for both a fantastic plugin and the timeliness of your support replies. Have a great day.

Thanks Simon… although I read about every page on the site(s) (many of them twice!) 🙂 I don’t think I caught that difference in role management options. Many of the features listed in the Features tab on the site were somewhat difficult to distinguish one version from the next. I’ll continue to test and see what else I come up with. 🙂

Thanks again.

After modifying (yet again) settings in the rss image plugin, the last three posts have come in with the proper image size. I am going to mark this as resolved for now. I’ll update if the issue reappears. Thanks.
