Hide search fields for specific member levels?

  • Hi,
    I have been testing the plugin and I love it so far ??

    Just read through the description again, apparently there should be a CLEAR button? For some reason I dont see one in my search form. Am I missing something?

    Also, is there a way to hide specific search fields for different member levels?
    I could not find any settings in the backend and unfortunately I cannot edit the form with Elementor. For example, a lower level member would not see the search field: Sports while a higher level member might see all fields and search all fields that I set up in the form.

    Any suggestion might help ??

    Hi Chris,

    There is no Clear button in search forms, but there is one after the currently active filters, to clear them.

    To hide specific search fields, use this code in bp-custom.php:

    add_action ('bps_before_search_form', 'hide_fields');
function hide_fields ($F)
{
    // $F->fields is an array containing the search fields
    // you can remove unwanted fields based on member level, then return
}

    Of course you, or your developer, have to write the actual code for the function body. For additional information on $F->fields, please see:
