    Hi there! Hoping you might point me in the right direction. I’m trying to restrict a specific role from being able to view any profile other than their own. I feel like I’ve tried everything and every plugin out there but no solutions just yet. I’d ideally like to do this without modifying the theme’s profile page and rather as a function in the functions.php page.

    Any help would be wonderful!

    Thanks again!

    This is what I’ve tried so far:

    add_action( ‘Prevent_Tenant_From_Others_profile’, function() {
    if ( bp_is_user_profile() ) {
    $user_meta = get_userdata( bp_loggedin_user_id() );

    if ( in_array( ‘tenant’, $user_meta->roles ) ) {
    wp_redirect( home_url() );
    exit;
    }
    }
    }, 1 );

    It allows to restrict user to view others profile based on his role.
