    Hi Josh,
    Thank you for the question.

    I will list the issues you are facing and the probably solutions.

    
    1. Is it possible to stop access to members directory page?
    

    Yes, we can simply check if it is members directory page and not single member page, redirect to somewhere else.

    2. The profile page data links to directory, now that would be a problem as BuddyPress files your profile data and links to directory in a searchable format.
    The solution would be to either disable this linking completely or put Andrea’s search plugin’s search form on your members directory.

    I can help with your question 1 but I lack time to assist you the issue 2. Please let me know if you need code for 1.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi John,
    Hope you are doing well.
    I am sorry for the delayed reply.

    Which file type are you trying to upload. Can you visit Dashboard->MediaPress->Settings->General and check which image file extensions are allowed?
    It is probably an issue with the allowed extensions list.

    Regards

    Yes, Please use poedit or similar tool that allows changing/creating localization without the need for installing it on your site.

    Hi Lawrence,
    Thank you for the reply.

    There is only one hardcoded instance which can not be localized, It is slug. That’s why we provide the option to change slug in settings.

    For all other changes, you will need to localize it. You can use a translation plugin or a localization tool such as poedit that does it one time.

    Regards

    Hi Lawrence,
    Thank you for your reply.

    We do not have any message button to send message to your circle. The message button being discussed here is the button on individual user card for sending DM to them.

    Is that button appearing/not appearing for you?

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Jerome,
    Thank you for your patience.

    I have investigated the issue thoroughly and the only solution is to avoid using wp-bigraphy/similar mapping and use the BuddyPress Xprofile field(create one named Bio).

    The problem is with BuddyPress and It will have impact on your search as well.

    When a user saves a field which is mapped to WordPress fields, BuddyPress does not have it in the xprofile field data.

    If you had a field in xprofile and you mapped, the old data will remain there and will never be updated. In case of mapped fields, It updates user meta.

    The problem with this approach is it is neither consistent, causes data redundancy/inconsistent state and issues with Profile Data search. It seems, when this feature was introduced(It has been in recent years), It did not go through thorough testing.

    I will suggest avoid using this field mapping as there are no visible benefit of mapping the field.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Jerome,
    Thank you for your patience.

    I am sorry, that is a bug. Please remove the code I supplied earlier(It was a mistake, I supplied code from profile data control and not moderator).

    The problem is happening because BuddyPress ignores the xprofile data and uses WordPress user meta data for these ignoring some of our actions. This happens when you use a mapped WordPress field(Biography, first name, last name).

    I am working on a solution, please expect a plugin update by 21st.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Hi,
    I am sorry, It seems their support is not able to understand the question.

    Simplify the question for them:-

    – Is there a function to check if we are on thank you page. Like is_page(‘xyz’) but specific to memberpress? We need the code to check when we are on the thank you page, can you provide that?

    I believe they should be able to understand it and help with the code.

    regards
    Brajesh
