Hi Radu,

Thank you for the reply. I tried your code and it made things better, but did not completely fix everything.

In any case, since this is complicated, perhaps we just won’t have this feature in our website. We will just have a traditional separate “Contact Us” page instead of this very cool feature.

I hope your company will consider implement Ninja Forms (or Gravity Form) in the future for all contact forms in your templates. I think it will enhance performance and feature for future versions of Kleo.

Thank you again!

Hi Kieran,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, it would be nice to be a feature for future release. I will do some research on my own on either plugin (or even better someways without using plugins as I want to minimize the use of plugins).

Thanks as always!

Hi Kieran,

It seems that you’re generally the man working on the weekend! 🙂

The kleo demo page you can use is here:

if you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you will see the section with the three small profile photos.

This live kleo demo page is little different from the demo page I downloaded when I bought Kleo v4.0 (or v4.1). But the idea is the same… Meaning, the user should be able to click on one of the three smaller profile photos to get more information on that particular person.

Please let me know if anything is not clear.

thank you!

Hi Kieran,

Yes! That’s exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so very much!!!

Hi Radu,

I found the “Kleo Login Setting” VC element and made the change as you suggested. The problem appears to be fixed.

Thank you!!

Hi Radu,

Thank you for the response. And apologies for replying so late as I didn’t have a chance to work on the website for a few days.

The good news is that I figured out my question#2, it’s a simple matter of setting the graphic to “no” to the container setting, then the graphic will be full screen.

I’m still not clear on question#1. How did you get to the “Kleo Login Settings” screen? I do have the latest Kleo installed. But my template is a Child theme, so maybe I don’t cannot see the “Kleo Login Settings” screen?

Thank you as always,

JB

Thank you Radu and Kieran,

Thanks for looking into the issue for me.

After trying various things and considering different factors, I thought the best solution to this problem (and for other reasons) is just not use Paid Membership Pro (PMPro) plugin but go with another membership plugin. PMPro is just too much trouble to deal with.

Very much appreciate all your help and suggestions as always.

Thank you Kieran! Really appreciate your help as always.

I will have to talk to the boss about setting up the admin credentials when he’s in the office Monday.

In the mean time, I thought that what I need to do is really simple in the idea. If we forget about the complexities with BDpress and BBpress, all I need to do is just to simply redirect non-logged in Users when they click on a few specific pages, so I wrote the codes below:

===========================

function page_redirect_trial()
{
if( ! is_user_logged_in() && (is_page(‘faqs’) || is_page(‘blog’) || is_page(‘members’) || is_page(‘groups’) || is_page(‘activity’))

)
{
wp_redirect( home_url( ‘/register/’ ) );
exit();
}
}
add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘page_redirect_trial’ );

==============

Unfortunately the code is not working for me, I don’t know if the reason has to do with “Paid Membership Pro” or not. What do you think?

thanks!!

JB

[jackbean]

closing this tkt as Kieran is looking at this issue for me on a diff tkt.

Thanks Kieran!!!

Hi Kieran,

So I did several tests with plugins… and the problem is with the Paid Membership Pro plugin. If I deactivate that plugin, everything works (the plugins, the codes in function.php), but as soon I activate the Paid Membership Pro plugin, then nothing works.

I checked all the settings for Paid Membership Pro plugin, but cannot see anything that would help.

Any thoughts would be great.

Thank you!!

Hi Kieran,

I know man! this is very strange….

I’m stuck on this issue big time… the even more strange part is that Buddypress pages (blog, members, groups, activity) and bbpress page (forum) are not appearing to be recognized as associated with Buddypress or bbpress. The reason I say this is that I have tried multiple plugins used to restrict access to BDpress and BBpress pages, but none of the plugin made any difference. Do you have a thought on this strange behavior?

Also, in the code below… where does it say that pages I want to restrict are only Buddypress pages?
———————————————————————-
/**
* Redirect buddypress and bbpress pages to registration page for non-logged in Users
*/
function kleo_page_template_redirect()
{
//if not logged in and on a bp page except registration or activation
if( ! is_user_logged_in() &&
( ( ! bp_is_blog_page() && ! bp_is_activation_page() && ! bp_is_register_page() ) || is_bbpress() )
)
{
wp_redirect( home_url( ‘/register/’ ) );
exit();
}
}
add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘kleo_page_template_redirect’ );

——————–

Thank you!!

Hi Kieran,

Thanks for looking into the issue for me.

I have to ask my boss about sharing admin rights as he’s very worried about site securities.

But just based on what your experience, what do you think could have led to the situation where all the pages are working ok for logged in users. But for non-logged in visitors, all BuddyPress pages are redirected to the Member Levels page?

I also tried a plugin called “BP Registration Option” that is supposed to help with “Only registered or approved members can view BuddyPress/bbPress pages (Private Network).” But it did not do any thing.

You can see how the website is now behaving if you goto:
– https://www.prohrweb.org/members/

And the page will be automatically redirected to:
– https://www.prohrweb.org/membership-account/membership-levels/

Thanks!!

Hi Kieran,

Thanks for the reply. Apologies for my late response as I just came back from a trip.

As to your point about read Changelog, I already did that. In fact, the reason I opened the ticket is because I saw in the Changelog that there is a “Small font-size fix for IE”, which is actually something I opened a support ticket on, and I had to add some codes into the Kleo Theme Quick Css. I would like to how to find the updated Kleo Parent file and replace the Kleo Child file, so that I don’t have duplicated codes/functions that may actually cause conflicts.

Secondarily and more importantly, I was wondering if the Parent Kleo update impacted some of the functionality of the existing website based on the Child Theme. Specifically, I added the following codes to my Kleo Child functions.php file. The codes are meant to re-direct all non-logged in users to the Register page if the non-logged in User tries to use any of the BuddyPress or bbPress pages.

COPY CODE

/**
* Redirect buddypress and bbpress pages to registration page for non-logged in Users
*/
function kleo_page_template_redirect()
{
    //if not logged in and on a bp page except registration or activation
    if( ! is_user_logged_in() &&
        ( ( ! bp_is_blog_page() && ! bp_is_activation_page() && ! bp_is_register_page() ) || is_bbpress() )
    )
    {
        wp_redirect( home_url( '/register/' ) );
        exit();
    }
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'kleo_page_template_redirect' );

I got this code from the Kleo support link here: https://seventhqueen.com/blog/code-snippets/restrict-guest-users-from-accessing-buddypress-or-bbpress-pages.html#comment-45

The code was working, but stopped working after the Kleo update.

Very strangely, now all BuddyPress pages (Members, Groups) for non-logged in user will go to the Member Levels page (instead of the Register page). I don’t know why that’s happening. Also, the bbpress page (“Forum”) is open unprotected, and non-logged in user can see the content.

Please let me what you think. Thanks very much as always!

Hi Kieran,

thank you for the reply to enhance my understanding of the Kleo theme, which is, in my view, an excellent product!

If I understand it correctly, since my website is built based on the active Child theme, then technically any enhancement to the Parent theme would not benefit the Child theme? So as long as my website is functioning, there is not reason to keep updating the Parent theme?

Is my understanding correct?

Thank you!

JB

Hello,

I was able to find some Kleo forum material/codes. I will try them out. I will close the tkt for now.

Thanks,

Hi Radu,

The link with the “bad” hook is here:

https://archived.seventhqueen.com/kleo/article/add-extra-profile-fields-show-certain-profile-fields-member-profile-header

if you read the last line of code where the “add_action” is for ‘bp_profile_header_meta‘.
But the code is not really “bad” as it does do something interesting and desirable, which is to highlight certain fields in the individual member’s page.

The problem is that in the link, the description is for the function to “show certain profile fields on member directory“, and that’s where the confusion was as I was looking for the change in member directory.

Maybe you can keep the code and just change the link’s description 🙂

Thanks,

Jay

Hi Radu and Laura,

thanks for looking into the issue. I looked at your code carefully and I finally understood where my problem is! 🙂

I think this will help other customers in case anyone has the question to you:
— there are two very similar links on kleo’s support for the topic of “You can show certain profile fields on member directory ”

— Link 1 is:
— Link 2 is:

Link 2 has the correct code for showing the extra fields in member DIRECTORY, because it is changing ‘bp_directory_members_item‘, but Link 1’s code actually changes the individual member page, and not the directory, as it changes ‘bp_profile_header_meta‘!

The code I originally used was from link 1, and it did not have the correct object reference.

Thanks again for looking into the issue. Appreciate your help very much!

Hi Radu,

Thank you very much, the css you provided worked.

Really appreciate the help!

Hi Laura,

My boss is hesitant to allow full access to the site… 🙁

Can you please check with your colleagues (say, Radu or Kieran) on this problem please.

Thank you for your patience!

Jay

[jackbean]

Laura,

These codes are not working…

Let’s forget about the request to hide the top menu. Let’s just focus on how to remove the social media icons from the registration page.

please note that the register page is a buddyPress page and “normal” ways to change things on this page do not work.

As I mentioned in my previous reply, I already figured out how to remove the sidebar from this page, and what you suggested does not work for the buddypress page; instead, we need to goto the settings for buddyPress to make changes. So I was able to remove the sidebar that way.

Similarly, these css codes are not going to work for the buddypress registration page. There must be some special buddypress specific settings or codes that need to be changed.

Can you please check with your colleagues (say, Radu or Kieran) on this problem please.

Thank you for your patience!

Jay
