Buddypress URL Restriction Trouble

Hey I am having some trouble, I need to allow access to profiles but restrict the main /members from showing to level 0 subscribers. This is causing a conflict I think due to the url having “members” in it

/members/username/profile/

my site is like this

http://www.sitename.com/members

you see this does not have a trailing slash though.. I tried adding without it and it still did not work.

How can I make this work?

Right now I have this set like this:

URIs That Require Level #0 Or Higher:

/members/%%current_user_login%%/profile/
/members/%%current_user_login%%/settings/

URIs That Require Level #1 Or Higher:

/members
/members/%%current_user_login%%/activity/
/members/%%current_user_login%%/messages/
/members/%%current_user_login%%/friends/

Hello Robert,

Yes I believe that’s the problem, because s2Member is trying to restrict specific pages for level 0, but then comes level 1, which tells it to block over the level 0 (because it’s more global).

I haven’t played with BuddyPress, so I’m not sure what a work-around for this could be.

Hope this clears something up, and I’m sorry I couldn’t help that much.

Hi Robert.

[hilite code]%%current_user_login%%[/hilite] won’t be in your URL, and the URI restriction doesn’t support replacement codes.

If you restrict [hilite code]/members[/hilite], you’re restricting all the others, though, so why don’t you try just that line? If you still want to specify the others, do:

Level 0+

/profile/
/settings/

Level 1+

/activity/
/messages/
/friends/

I hope that helps. :)
