Privacy Settings not Updating

I did some research and found a fix.

file um-actions-profile.php

Edit line 64:

old:
$fields = unserialize( $args['custom_fields'] );

new:

$fields = unserialize( $args['custom_fields'] );
$fields["profile_privacy"] = $args["profile_privacy"];
$fields["hide_in_members"] = $args["hide_in_members"];

-> privacy fields are saved into database.

Found another bug…

method um_remove_special_users_from_list filters user privacy settings. Problem: in line 66 where the query filter is built there’s a hardcoded “Yes”

			    array(
					'key' => 'hide_in_members',
					'value' => 'Yes',
					'compare' => 'NOT LIKE'
				)

When you’re using english as your plugin’s language you’re fine. Else this will fail because the setting is saved translated…

Fix:
add another query arg array containing the right value.

$query_args['meta_query'][] = array(
				"relation"	=> "OR",
				array(
						'key' => 'hide_in_members',
						'value' => '',
						'compare' => 'NOT EXISTS'
			    ),
			    array(
					'key' => 'hide_in_members',
					'value' => 'Ja',
					'compare' => 'NOT LIKE'
				)
			);

Best solution would be to loop over all found translations and add the right query.
