    Hi,
    Thank you for your interest in the plugin.

    We do want to add the functionality. The issue is we can not use multiple source in one instance of the widget.

    For example:- I consider xprofile matching as one source of user, Friends of Friends as another source of user and Group Members and another.

    These 3 sources are not related and there is not a well defined path for providing the list if we do not restrict the source.

    But 3 different instances of this widget can show suggested user’s from once source per widget. Will this kind of setup be helpful? we are not sure about this and that’s why this has not yet landed in the plugin.

    We do have a free plugin for Friends of Friends based suggestion.

    Hi Fain,
    Thank you for the reply.

    I had a look at the “Members → Single Profile” widget area of the BuddyBoss theme. This widget area does not seem to be only limited to a person’s own profile. It seems, It is visible to any user viewing other user’s profile too.

    Instead of providing 2 sidebar widget areas( for user’s own profile and then for other user’s profile), BuddyBoss has added custom conditions to their widgets and limited their availability to profile.

    They can do it as it is their platform but it is not a good idea for general purpose widget.

    For example, if we hide this widget on non profile page, anyone trying to use it on members directory or other site pages will be disappointed.

    Since BuddyBoss lacks the ability to have different sidebar areas for own profile and other user’s profile, I understand that you will need conditions to apply.

    You can use a plugin such as widget logic
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/

    to apply condition.
    The code for the condition will be

    bp_is_my_profile()
    

    Please let me know if that works for you or not?

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi,
    Thank you for using the plugin.

    We have already started on a Group addon for BuddyBlog Pro(will be freely available with it). We are going for the same kind of functionality(multiple post types to group, scope who can post, which groups have which post types etc).

    It is in early stage of development and I am expecting to have a beta release by the end of this month.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi Tosin,
    Thank you for the post.

    We already have that functionality.

    The request is to disable this ability of BuddyBlog and avoid listing their own media.

    Regards

    Hi Fain,
    Thank you for the patience.

    I am sorry for the delayed reply.

    I am unable to find any issue with our implementation.

    The goal of Friends Suggestion Pro is to list the friends of logged in user. It is not aware of where it is placed and a widget does not need to know that.

    If BuddyBoss support is asking that the widget should hide itself from the sidebar, that is a very strange expectation. Instead, a better solution will be to have a different sidebar widget area of the displayed user where this widget is not added.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Cristi,
    Thank you for using BuddyBlog Pro.

    1. We will add the option to disable showing the already uploaded media(by the user), to them. We did it to allow them delete their own media if needed.

    2. At the moment, we don’t have plan to have a custom Media Uploader. We will certainly consider it in future.

    The BuddyBoss media uploader is a hardcoded uploader and can not be used with 3rd party plugins as of now.

    3. The goal of BuddyBlog is limited. We control the front end editing experience. We do not interfere with default WordPress workflow on anything else.
    If you want to have the attachments deleted on post delete, there are many plugins available.

    You may use a plugin such as
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/dx-delete-attached-media/
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoremove-attachments/

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Hans,
    I am sorry, we can’t update that and release as official. It is from a different developer and I will suggest reaching out to them.

    Regards
