Hi Brajesh
Sorry for the third post but after further testing, I can see that the issue actually mentioned does indeed seem to be fixed ie. users can now only see their own draft and pending posts (unless they are a group admin) so that part does indeed appear to be fixed now.
As mentioned above, unfortunately activity entries still don’t seem to be quite right.
Regards
NikPS. Oh I think I’m confused now… are the updates mentioned above intended to address the activity entry issues OR the issues with bblgroups_get_posts_query_args?
Because you mentioned activity, I was assuming it was the former, although I’ve now noticed this was posted on my query about the latter 😉
I’ll do a bit more testing and await to hear from you.
Regards
NikHi Brajesh
Thank you so much for this. I’ve been doing some testing accordingly and results as follows –
Groups activity now seems to be working well ie. entries appear as follows –
“Nik wrote a new post My Post Title in the group My Group”
“Nik wrote a new event My Event Name in the group My Group”(From a pedantic point of view, I think using the word “added” or “created” would possibly work better than “wrote” and be more relevant for a wider variety of post types, but I can always translate that myself so not an issue at this stage.)
User activity is unfortunately not working so well ie. for an event post type, I get TWO entries as follows –
“Nik posted a new post” (with no link) – I think this one is coming from BuddyBlog Pro?
“Nik added the event My Event Name” – I suspect this one is coming from the Events Manager plugin?Any idea what is going wrong here? Maybe I need to disable the Events Manager entry but since that’s the one that reads correctly, that doesn’t seem ideal.
With many thanks in advance for any thoughts.
NikHi Brajesh
Ah that makes sense and glad it’s not just me.
Really hope you can indeed get this and the other changes sorted within the next 1 – 2 days, timing is getting a bit critical for me on this project now 😉
Fingers crossed and will look forward to hearing from you.
NikHi Brajesh
I was really hoping you were right but unfortunately, I’ve done some testing and I’m not sure…
I deactivated all plugins except BuddyBoss Platform, BuddyBoss Platform Pro, BuddyBlog Pro & BuddyBlog Groups.
Even using the Twenty Twenty One theme, all group members are seeing ALL draft/pending posts under the respective tabs in the group.If it makes any difference, if they actually try to view a post which is shown under draft or pending by clicking on the link, all they see is a blank page (even if it’s their own) … which does make some sense as the post obviously isn’t actually published yet however… that doesn’t explain why they can still see a list of ALL the posts.
If you are unable to replicate this, I’m not sure what to investigate next. Any suggestions?
Regards
NikThank you so much Brajesh. That’s great news and will look forward to hearing from you.
Hi Brajesh
I hope you enjoyed the holidays and just wondered if you’d had a chance to look into this more yet. It’s proving quite a problem for me right now and do need to find some way to fix as soon as possible.
With very many thanks in advance.
NikHi Brajesh
I think I understand at least most of what you’re saying and it makes sense 😉
I’ll look forward to hearing further from you once the holidays are over.

Thank you so much Brajesh. That all seems to work perfectly and I’ve also made a note of how you’ve done this for future reference with other similar issues.
Warm regards
Nik Hi Brajesh
Thank you for confirming my concerns with regard to removing the parse_query. Events Manager seems to come with quite a complex range of filters which may perhaps provide a clue with regard to the best way to handle things but if/when you have the time, any assistance would be very much appreciated.
Wishing you and yours a very happy Diwali and will look forward to hearing from you in due course.
Regards
Nik
