Trouble with User Navigation on Profile Page

I should clarify my “private profile” comment…

Ideally, I’d love to have bbpress profiles visible to other students in the group, but not public.

Is this possible?

Thanks again!
Sharon

And please ignore the first part of my question regarding the links not working properly. This is now fixed. The only issue I’m having now is visibility of posts through the profile page…

Thanks!
Sharon

apologies for the delay in responding – usually I get an email for new subjects, but this one and you other one didn’t alert me !

and further apologies, but I’m not clear what your remaining issue is.

Can you add a post below this by cutting and pasting from above creating the remaining question, and I’ll come back soonest !

Noooo worry at all, Robin. Sorry, this post does sound rather convoluted! ??

To simplify…

If a non-registered, non-logged in person happens to land on a student’s profile, and clicks either Topics Started, Replies Created, or Favorites, they can see the post topics. In fact, Replies Created actually shows the full reply, without having to click on the post.

Here’s an example of what I mean.

Is there any way this can be hidden too? Or at least seen only by those registered for that particular forum?

I hope that makes more sense…

Thanks again!
Sharon

yes it does make sense, I’ll take a look

ok, I can’t immediately replicate this on my site.

can you tell me

Forum Visibility

Forum visibility – active/non active
Redirect pages – active/non active
URL for login
URL for non logged in
Freshness – active/non active
Freshness Message

General Settings

Hide topic and reply counts – active/non active
Show Descriptions – active/non active
Remove ‘Private Prefix’ – active/non active

Sure!

Forum Visibility: unchecked
Redirect: active
URL logged in: https://bellynsoul.com/bbpress-private-page/
URL non- logged in: same
Freshness: unchecked
Hide topic and reply counts: active
Show descriptions: unchecked
Remove Private Prefix: active

Please let me know if there is anything else you need.

Thanks!

sorry for the delay in replying – I can’t see why this won’t work for you.

I think you need to eliminate plugins and themes

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and private groups and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

Hello Robin!

I’m so sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I’ve been in the middle of moving, and everything has been put on hold for a bit.

I did what you suggested, and went straight to a default theme, and I’m still having the trouble.

Just so I know we are looking at the same thing, would you mind checking out the following page and clicking the links under the profile photo?

https://bellynsoul.com/forums/students/admin/

Now now of my topics seem to show, even when I am logged in, viewing my own profile. The replies, however, are now including blog posts. Really odd. I haven’t done anything to my site since I wrote you.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks!
Sharon

P.S. I also disabled all plugins except for BBPress and Private Groups, and nothing changed… I can still read students topics and replies through their profile (via the links under their avatar), which means everyone else can too. Thanks again for your help!

P.P.S. Feel free to test with the student profile name “admin”. As you can see, the Topics are only coming up as titles, and if you click on them, this will lead you to the private page. This works great! The random blog post glitch seems to have resolved itself… The problem is lies in the REPLIES. The full post is visible to anyone who clicks on the replies link. Hope this makes more sense! ?? Thanks again…

hmm, when I click say ‘checking in’ from a reply, I get

‘Sorry, this is a private forum.

To learn more about Belly & Soul’s forums, please visit our Class page.’

But you should not be seeing even the replies.

Can you email me the settings in dashboard>settings>forums

send this via the email, address in my website

I am away from tomorrow for a few days

Sorry, I should be more specific with my link names on the Profile page…

When you click on “Topics Created”, it works well, as you describe.

When you click on “Replies Created”, the problem occurs…

Hopefully this helps! ??

I’m happy to send you my settings as well.

Thanks again!
Sharon
