## Descripción

**Restrictions for BuddyPress** gives you full control over who can see and access
your BuddyPress community pages. Hide profiles, groups, activity, and messages from
visitors, non-members, or specific membership levels.

Perfect for **membership sites**, **private communities**, **paid networks**, and**
gated BuddyPress installations**.

#### What You Can Restrict

 * **Members Directory** — Hide the full members list from visitors or non-members
 * **Member Profiles** — Control who can view individual BuddyPress profiles
 * **Groups Directory** — Restrict access to the groups listing page
 * **Single Group Pages** — Lock individual group pages behind membership
 * **Site-Wide Activity** — Hide the activity stream from unauthorized users
 * **Private Messages** — Restrict messaging to specific membership levels

#### Membership Integration

Seamlessly integrates with **Paid Memberships Pro (PMPro)**:

 * Apply restrictions based on your existing membership levels
 * Show upgrade prompts to non-members trying to access restricted content
 * Mix and match — some areas free, some members-only

#### Free Access by Profile Field

Grant free access to specific BuddyPress members based on a **profile field value**—
no membership plugin required. Ideal for:

 * Giving VIP access to users with a specific role or profile attribute
 * Creating tiered access without a full membership setup
 * Whitelisting beta testers or early adopters

#### BuddyBoss Compatible

Fully compatible with **BuddyBoss Platform**, so your restrictions work whether 
you’re running classic BuddyPress or BuddyBoss.

#### How It Works

 1. Install and activate the plugin
 2. Go to **Settings  BP Restrict**
 3. Choose which BuddyPress areas to restrict
 4. Select restriction type: visitors, all non-members, or specific membership levels
 5. Set a custom redirect URL or restriction message
 6. Done — your community is protected

#### Use Cases

 * **Private communities** — Only logged-in members can browse profiles and groups
 * **Paid membership sites** — Gate BuddyPress features behind PMPro membership 
   levels
 * **Corporate intranets** — Restrict the social layer to employees only
 * **Online courses** — Let students access the community, hide it from everyone
   else
 * **Dating sites** — Require membership to view profiles or send messages

## Capturas

 * [[
 * General BuddyPress restriction settings — control access to profiles, groups,
   activity, and messages
 * [[
 * Paid Memberships Pro integration — apply restrictions based on membership levels

## FAQ

### Does this plugin work without Paid Memberships Pro?

Yes! You can restrict BuddyPress areas based on login status (visitors vs. logged-
in users) or based on BuddyPress profile field values — no membership plugin required.
PMPro integration is optional.

### Does it work with BuddyBoss?

Yes, Restrictions for BuddyPress is fully compatible with BuddyBoss Platform.

### Can I show a custom message to restricted users?

Yes. You can set a custom restriction message or redirect users to a specific page(
like a registration or upgrade page).

### Can I restrict only certain membership levels?

Yes. With Paid Memberships Pro active, you can choose exactly which membership levels
have access to each BuddyPress area.

### Will restricted pages still appear in menus and search?

The plugin restricts access to BuddyPress pages. Menu visibility depends on your
theme or menu settings. We recommend using a menu visibility plugin alongside this
one for the best experience.

### Is it compatible with the latest WordPress and PHP versions?

Yes. Tested up to WordPress 6.9 and requires PHP 7.4 or higher.
