Prevent users to see the same gender

[tulipwork]

Hi!

How to prevent male users to see other male users but only female? And same for women?

Thank you very much.

[Kieran_SQ]

Hi,

Please see here for how to restrict the members directory in that way

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/prevent-same-sex-search-on-dating-site/#post-10095615

This code would need to be added to bp-custom.php so it is called early enough to work properly. This file does not exist by default and you will need to create your bp-custom.php file and upload it directly into /wp-content/plugins/ folder.

For more information on the bp-custom.php file please see this buddypress codex article https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/bp-custom-php/

Thanks,

Kieran

Hi!
Just a question: on my homepage, only male users are displaying now. Do you know how to fix it?
On the “recent active members” widget, all gender are displaying.

[Kieran_SQ]

Hi,

When I am logged in as a male user I see only female users in the carousel widget. If I switch to a female user I see only male users in the same carousel.

I assume you mean whilst logged out? If so it may be possible to use is_user_logged_in() in the if statement so this code is only run for logged in users. Please can you share the exact code you used here with a single code tag before and after the code so no formatting is lost.

Thanks,

Kieran

Thanks for your help!

Here is the code:

COPY CODE

add_filter ('bp_ajax_querystring', 'modify_members_loop', 20, 2);
function modify_members_loop ($qs=false, $object=false)
{
global $wpdb;
if ($object != 'members') return $qs;

// figure out if the logged-in user is male or female
$gender = xprofile_get_field_data (2, bp_loggedin_user_id ());

if ($gender == 'Male')
$query = "SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 2 AND value = 'Female'";
else
$query = "SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 2 AND value = 'Male'";

$custom_ids = $wpdb->get_col ($query);

$args = wp_parse_args ($qs);
$args['include'] = implode (',', $custom_ids);
$qs = build_query ($args);

return $qs;
}

Hi,

I tested this locally. It restricts logged in users to opposite sex and shows all to any logged out user. Let me know if this works for you or not.

COPY CODE

add_filter ('bp_ajax_querystring', 'modify_members_loop', 20, 2);
function modify_members_loop ($qs=false, $object=false) {

    if (is_user_logged_in() ){

        global $wpdb;
        if ($object != 'members') return $qs;

        // figure out if the logged-in user is male or female
        $gender = xprofile_get_field_data (2, bp_loggedin_user_id ());

        if ($gender == 'Male')
        $query = "SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 2 AND value = 'Female'";
        else
        $query = "SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 2 AND value = 'Male'";

        $custom_ids = $wpdb->get_col ($query);

        $args = wp_parse_args ($qs);
        $args['include'] = implode (',', $custom_ids);
        $qs = build_query ($args);

        return $qs;
    }
}

Hi,

Do you know how to prevent this code from running for the admin user? Just to apply it to members and let admin see all genders?

Thank you so much.

[Kieran_SQ]

Hi,

You could try this instead which will check if the user doesn’t have the activate plugins capability (administrator).

COPY CODE

add_filter ('bp_ajax_querystring', 'modify_members_loop', 20, 2);
function modify_members_loop ($qs=false, $object=false) {

    if (is_user_logged_in() && !current_user_can('activate_plugins') ){

        global $wpdb;
        if ($object != 'members') return $qs;

        // figure out if the logged-in user is male or female
        $gender = xprofile_get_field_data (2, bp_loggedin_user_id ());

        if ($gender == 'Male')
        $query = "SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 2 AND value = 'Female'";
        else
        $query = "SELECT user_id FROM {$wpdb->prefix}bp_xprofile_data WHERE field_id = 2 AND value = 'Male'";

        $custom_ids = $wpdb->get_col ($query);

        $args = wp_parse_args ($qs);
        $args['include'] = implode (',', $custom_ids);
        $qs = build_query ($args);

        return $qs;
    }
}

Thanks,

Kieran

I,

I just notice that when a user scroll down and goes to page 2, it’s working fine. However, it’s not working for the admin: the page 2 loads the same users than the page 1…

[Kieran_SQ]

Hi,

It seems unlikely that adding the admin check would cause this issue. Can you therefore do the following two tests and let me know the outcome for each. Please completely purge your website cache and browser cache for each step to ensure you have the latest files.

– Revert the code to the version before the admin check. Does page 2 work or not work as expected?
– Remove the code entirely. Does page 2 work or not as expected?

Thanks,

Kieran

Hi,

That’s really strange. You’re using the code in bp-custom.php and not functions.php?

Absolutely.

[Kieran_SQ]

Hi,

I think this may be related to ajax but I am not able to test as I am currently not in the office. I’ll have to look into this in more detail tomorrow.

If it is related to ajax I wouldn’t be able to extend the above code, but I could probably make a change to SweetDate (on your site only) that disabled the ajax element of the members directory but this would mean the url would no longer be /members/ for page 2 but /members/page-2 (or similar), is that okay?

Hi Kieran,

If it’s due to Ajax, we will keep the current code, and I’ll create a female admin to see male members. Don’t worry about that, it’s not a big problem!

If it’s not due to ajax and if there is a way to improve the current function, let’s try! If not, no problem!

Thanks a lot!

[Kieran_SQ]

Hi,

Without disabling ajax on the members directory I am unable to resolve the page 2 issue with the admin check, sorry.

All the best,

Kieran
