Can I hide “Add Friend” buttons when viewing Buddypress Profile>Friends?

    Hi!
    As part of moderating new members of my site, the Add Friend/Private Message buttons are hidden on profiles. Simple code snippets used, all good. (I can not code unfortunately)

    But when visiting a profile, and then viewing the Friends of that user, each member in the list has an “Add Friend” button displayed.

    I need to completely hide these buttons, for all users, admin included, permanently.

    Is it possible?

    Any advice greatly appreciated!

    Sorry, this post should be in Buddypress not Themes.

    Hello Michael,

    Welcome to the BuddyDev Forums. Please share the code you are using to hide Buttons so that I can help you.

    Do you want to complete hide this button only or do want to disable the friends and message feature also?.

    Regards
    Ravi

    Thanks Ravi,

    – Add Friend/Private Message buttons are hidden on profile page using “BP Registration Options” plugin, for new members only, once ‘approved’ those buttons become visible to the user.

    – Add Friend button is hidden on members page (for all users) using code snippet:

     /**
 * Hide "Add Friend" button on members list & search results list
 */
add_filter( 'bp_get_add_friend_button', function ( $button ) {

	if ( bp_is_members_directory() ) {
		$button = array();
	}

	return $button;
} );

    – So I need the similar functionality as the snippet above; simply hide the Add Friend buttons in the Friends list (for all users), but the friends feature is not disabled.

    Thanks!

    I tried changing the above to:

    
if ( bp_is_members_directory() || bp_is_friends_component() )

    which does hide the Add Friend buttons in the user’s Friends list (which I want), but also unfortunately hides the Add Friend button at the top of the profile (which I don’t want).

    Could this be improved on?

    Thankyou!

    Hello Micael,

    Thank you for sharing the code. Please try the following code for hiding Add Friend button in the friends list.

    
add_action( 'bp_before_friends_loop', function() {
	add_filter( 'bp_get_add_friend_button', '__return_empty_array' );
} );

add_action( 'bp_after_friends_loop', function () {
	remove_filter( 'bp_get_add_friend_button', '__return_empty_array', 10 );
} );

    Please check.

    Regards
    Ravi
