Hi Diane,
Welcome to BuddyDev forums.

I am sorry but I am unable to understand the issue. Is this plugin not restricting users registration while using ultimate member?

No, you do not need Ultimate Member pro for this.

Please let me know and I will assist.

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi Sumit,
Are you using a custom theme? Try changing it and using default theme. I have seen themes filtering on ‘pre_get_posts’ and causing it in past.

Hi Saxena,
Thank you for the update.

I am glad it worked. You can review the plugin on https://wordpress.org/plugins/mediapress/

And yes, I am based in India. MediaPress is a product from us, so Yes 🙂

Best regards
Brajesh

Hi Tosin,
I am sorry but we won’t be able to provide free support for 3rd part plugins except BuddyPress. If Ravi prefers, he may support you but I won’t be able to do it.

If you want to implement the same with default BuddyPress message button, I will gladly help.

Hi Michael,
No Problem. Let us change the code a bit.

Step 1:- Please remove the old code for member type visibility and use the following

/**
 * Get an array of member types enable for visibility.
 *
 * @return array
 */
function buddydev_get_visibility_member_types() {

	return array(
		'recruiter',
		'staff',
	);
}

/**
 * Add extra visibility levels.
 *
 * @param array $visibilities visibilities.
 *
 * @return array
 */
function buddydev_add_member_type_profile_visibility( $visibilities ) {

	$member_types = bp_get_member_types( array(), 'object' );
	// If there is no registered member type, return the original visibilities.
	if ( empty( $member_types ) ) {
		return $visibilities;
	}

	$allowed_member_types = buddydev_get_visibility_member_types();

	// Add our member type as visibility levels.
	foreach ( $member_types as $member_type => $member_type_object ) {

		if ( ! in_array( $member_type, $allowed_member_types ) ) {
			continue;
		}

		$visibilities[ $member_type ] = array(
			'id'    => $member_type,
			'label' => $member_type_object->labels['singular_name'],
		);
	}

	return $visibilities;
}

add_filter( 'bp_xprofile_get_visibility_levels', 'buddydev_add_member_type_profile_visibility' );

/**
 * Hide profile fields based on member type visibility.
 *
 * @param array $hidden_levels hidden visibility levels.
 * @param int   $displayed_user_id displayed user id.
 * @param int   $current_user_id logged in user id.
 *
 * @return array
 */
function buddydev_get_hidden_visibility_types_for_user( $hidden_levels, $displayed_user_id, $current_user_id ) {

	// Consider all listed member types as invisible.
	$member_types = buddydev_get_visibility_member_types();

	// If user is not logged in
	// All member type visibilities will be hidden.
	if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
		$hidden_levels = array_merge( $hidden_levels, $member_types );
	} elseif ( ( $displayed_user_id == $current_user_id ) || is_super_admin( $current_user_id ) ) {
		// Do not hide anything on own profile or viewed by super admin.
	} else {
		// User is logged in and viewing other user's profile.
		$logged_member_types = bp_get_member_type( $current_user_id, false );
		// except current user's member type, all other levels will be hidden.
		if ( $logged_member_types ) {
			$member_types = array_diff( $member_types, $logged_member_types );
		}

		$hidden_levels = array_merge( $hidden_levels, $member_types );
	}

	return $hidden_levels;
}

add_filter( 'bp_xprofile_get_hidden_field_types_for_user', 'buddydev_get_hidden_visibility_types_for_user', 10, 3 );

Now, in order to limit to only certain member types, all you have to do is change this

	return array(
		'recruiter',
		'staff',
	);

Change the values in this array with the actual member type name(unique name).
