Hi, I would like to hide user’s IP addresses from moderators, but keep them visible for keymasters.
Searching this topic I found solutions to hide the IP addresses for everyone, but not to keep it visible for keymasters.
Any ideas?

Thank you,
Sam

Using WordPress 5.3.2
bbPress 2.6.3

you will need to amend a template, so need to be able to edit and ftp files.

If so, then

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

change line 46 from

<?php if ( current_user_can( 'moderate', bbp_get_reply_id() ) ) : ?>
to

<?php if ( bbp_is_user_keymaster() ) : ?>

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original and only keymasters will see the ip address
