Hi

I am setting up my membership levels and I don’t seem to be able to stop subscribers from viewing (allbeit a limited view of the back end of wordpress. I have installed the “hide the admin bar from Non Admin” but it has not solved the problem.

You can see on the image I am selecting editing profile and the second half of the image is where it takes me to edit it. Which obviously isn’t desireable!

Hope you can help

Thanks
Ruth

This is a wordpress “feature” 🙂 Check out the Adminimize plugin. Its a bear to setup but works great.

This might be what you’re after – seems much simpler than the Adminimize plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-admin-no-show/

wp admin no show should do the job or this tiny little code added to child theme/functions.php
COPY CODE
```
add_action( "init", "kleo_blockusers_init" );
function kleo_blockusers_init() {
    if ( is_admin() AND ! current_user_can( "administrator" ) AND
       ! ( defined( "DOING_AJAX" ) AND DOING_AJAX ) ) {
        wp_redirect( home_url() );
        exit;
    }
}
```

Hello thanks for the information. I have installed the wordpress function, which does its job.I still want people to be able to edit their profile but can this be done without displaying the backend of wordress?

Thanks Ruth

Yes, just enable the profile module in BP…

Admin > Settings > Buddy Press, then tick “Extended Profiles” to enable the UI for BP profiles

Now, assuming you’ve turned off the WP bar for end-users (there’s an option to do that in Kleo theme settings) you’ll need to add a menu item to your Kleo menu bar so people can get to the BP profile UI…

Go in to Admin > Appearance > Menus, and in your Main Menu (or the Top Bar menu if you prefer) click the “Screen options” button at the top-right of the admin screen, and make sure Buddy Press is ticked. You’ll now get a new “Buddy Press” set of menu links to use on your menus, one of which is a profile link…

And, if you want to get more creative, there’s a free plugin called “Buddy Press Direct Links” that you can install to generate more custom menu links. Heres what I set up and how it looks…
