Hello Andrea,

Thank you for your prompt response.
Just to let you (and maybe others who ends up here) know, I solved this problem by editing the members-loop.php file in my child theme. I edited this string

<?php if ( bp_has_members( bp_ajax_querystring( 'members' ) ) ): ?>

into this:

<?php
	$query = bp_ajax_querystring( 'members' );
	if (strpos($query, "type=") === FALSE) {
		$query = "type=newest&".$query;
		// little javascript to change the dropdown select index 
		echo "<script>document.getElementById('members-order-by').selectedIndex = 1;</script>";
	}
?>
<?php if ( bp_has_members( $query ) ) : ?>

It probably isn’t the best solution, since I believe it should be possible with php alone. I’ve written in the buddypress forum and waiting for an answer.

Still, thank you very much for your support!

Thank you very much, this is exactly what I needed ??

Have a good day!

Hi Arovrata,
thank you very much for the prompt response.
I’ll go with the filter, but I have some things that may cause some problems:
Since the filter is shared by all forms throughout the website, and I have two different forms that are associated with the same Custom Post Type, is there a way to get the form id within that filter? That way I could choose when to load a post or not. If in some situation I don’t want a post to be loaded, what should I return from the function?

Thank you again for your support

Hello Andrea,
Thank you very much for the explanation, I did look into that page, but missed the subheading “Add Hidden filter to a Members directory” -.-

Thank you very much for your prompt response and the good documentation.
Keep up the good work!
