HI Nic,
Please upgrade to 1.0.9 and then, you can add the following code to your bp-custom.php

/**
 * Disable UI.
 */
add_filter(
	'bp_anonymous_is_valid_screen',
	function ( $valid ) {
		return false;// don't show ui.
	}
);

/**
 * Custom enable for certain groups.
 *
 * @param bool   $is is enabled.
 * @param string $context current context.
 * @param int    $context_id context id.
 */
function bpanonymous_custom_enable( $is, $context, $context_id ) {
	if ( 'group' !== $context ) {
		return $is;
	}

	$allowed_groups = array( 1,2,3,4 );// please change with the group ids.

	return in_array( $context_id, $allowed_groups );
}

add_filter( 'bp_anonymous_activity_is_anonymous_comment', 'bpanonymous_custom_enable', 10, 3 );
add_filter( 'bp_anonymous_activity_is_maybe_anonymous_comment', 'bpanonymous_custom_enable', 10, 3 );
add_filter( 'bp_anonymous_activity_is_anonymous_post', 'bpanonymous_custom_enable', 10, 3 );

Please make sure to change this

	$allowed_groups = array( 1,2,3,4 );// please change with the group ids.

With correct group ids.

Any update/comment on these groups will be anonymous.

Hi Tosin,
Thank you for the suggestion.

We have a competing product with them which is free and a pro version has been in development(with support for multiple post types etc).

We can’t take over that plugin, but I do hope that when we release BuddyBlog Pro next month, It will have a super set of features from the plugin.

Hi Carsten,
The experience you are looking for is more like an app experience than a web page experience.

The reason a user is sent at top is because when the browser loads the member directory, the content is loaded via ajax(depends on your template pack) and browser is not aware where it was previously.

Yes, it is doable, but I will leave that in the scope of plugins(and how they load member directory). They can set a cookie and use that to fetch the specific page of member list and scroll to it.

I do not think there is any solution that I can help apply cleanly without modifying the theme/template pack’s js file.

Hi Carsten,
Thank you for the question.

1. Since your members directory is a dynamic web page, every time it is visited, It is reloaded.

You can not use page caching for this, database caching and object caching may help.

If your members directory is very slow, My suggestion will be to check for the reason. You may try query monitor or similar plugin to check for memory usage/database query as basic tools.

If that does not help, you may go for profiling the setup to identify the bottlenecks.

Most of the time, It is either database queries or media.
