Oke I get that there are plugins to send emails, but how to intergrade them to upgrade the user (automatically). I don’t want to manually upgrade every request.
To me this sounds like a VIP plugin where you can pay to get a VIP upgrade.
No im looking for this, but can’t find anything on this topic out there. If there is nothing like this ill probably have to hire someone to intergrade this.
I had to create several new users but I could not just copied and paste the code again so I modified the code a bit
//code to add expert role
function add_expert_role( $bbp_roles )
{
/* Add a role called expert */
$bbp_roles['bbp_expert'] = array(
'name' => 'expert',
'capabilities' => custom_capabilities_expert( 'bbp_expert' )
);
return $bbp_roles;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_expert_role', 1 );
function expert_role_caps_filter( $caps, $role )
{
/* Only filter for roles we are interested in! */
if( $role == 'bbp_expert' )
$caps = custom_capabilities_expert( $role );
return $caps;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'expert_role_caps_filter', 10, 2 );
function custom_capabilities_expert( $role )
{
switch ( $role )
{
/* Capabilities for 'expert' role */
case 'bbp_expert':
return array(
// Primary caps
'spectate' => true,
'participate' => true,
'moderate' => false,
'throttle' => false,
'view_trash' => false,
// Forum caps
'publish_forums' => false,
'edit_forums' => false,
'edit_others_forums' => false,
'delete_forums' => false,
'delete_others_forums' => false,
'read_private_forums' => true,
'read_hidden_forums' => false,
// Topic caps
'publish_topics' => true,
'edit_topics' => true,
'edit_others_topics' => false,
'delete_topics' => false,
'delete_others_topics' => false,
'read_private_topics' => true,
// Reply caps
'publish_replies' => true,
'edit_replies' => true,
'edit_others_replies' => false,
'delete_replies' => false,
'delete_others_replies' => false,
'read_private_replies' => true,
// Topic tag caps
'manage_topic_tags' => false,
'edit_topic_tags' => false,
'delete_topic_tags' => false,
'assign_topic_tags' => true,
);
break;
default :
return $role;
}
}
This creates the role Expert. I put this in my functions.php of my child-theme
Same here, while searching for a solution came across this post.
Any luck on fixing this?
I had imported dummy content and there where a view set to private. Mybad.
Hey what did you do to fix it? Cause im having the same problem with Custom Sidebars (from WPMU)
