Is there an easy way to automatically remove blocked users from the BuddyPress group/members list?

At the time of this issue, WP 4.3 usage is at 3.6%, which is below our 5% threshold. We should be the minimum WP version to 4.4.

I've installed the plugin on wordpress 5.2.2 with latest buddypress plugin if i try to block an user i get this error :

Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, class 'WP_Hook' does not have a method 'get_template_part' in /home/chatitaly/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 286

I love that you’re preventing Buddypress from sending email notifications to blocked users, but I might suggest creating two new Buddypress “scenarios” so admins can use Buddypress’ native email functionality to notify the user that they’ve been blocked and, perhaps, for how long. Another would be for when a user is subsequently unblocked (manually or automatically).

Obviously, these two email scenarios would need to be allowed even while a user is blocked.

Buddypress already allows themes and plugins to add email scenarios (documentation link coming soon) which means all we would have to do is hook into that and provide a callback (i.e. “on block, User Blocked scenario fires” and vice versa).

Might fork your project and give it a go myself. No promises. Submitting this issue purely to document and as a (gentle) suggestion for enhancement.

At the time of this issue, the WP usage stats for PHP 5.2 are at 4.8%. On top of this, BP dropped support for PHP 5.2 with the release of BP 2.8. In the near future, we should drop support for PHP 5.2 as well.

Hi, Brandon
Thanks for your plugin. The ideas of your bp-block-users for specific time period are exactly what I want.
But, when I tried your plugin in my site, I found that it cannot block specific user role in specific time period. I'm using the latest WordPress 4.4.1 and BuddyPress 2.4.3.
Could you check that for me? Thanks a million.

Since the rewrite happened while the plugin was still young and not heavily used, I'd rather give users a period to transition, and then remove the version 0.1.0 code altogether. The includes all deprecated functions, filters, and actions. The 1.3.0 milestone is a soft target depending on the time it takes to get to 1.3.0, but I'd like to make it happen.

It would be nice for site with multiple admins to be able to add a note about the reason a user was blocked. I see this including the date the user was blocked, along with the admin that added the block.

I am just wondering about using this plugin, it looks like you're saying 0.1.0 shouldn't be used, and I should be using 0.2.0. Any idea when 0.2.0 will be pushed to wordpress.org? Is it ready for testing now? Can I just grab a zip of the repo here and go?

Hi,
I translated the pot file into German but unfortunately 90% shows still the English version. Second found out that the link to menu 'Block user' is linked to the own profile and not to the profile I'm watching. See the attached screenshots.

Would be great to check the connections of your great plugin. Use v1.0.1.

Kindest regartds,
Thorsten

At the time of this issue, BP 2.5 usage is at 6.5%. Stats for 2.4 usage aren't explicitly stated. With BP 2.9 imminent, and 6.5% being reasonably close to 5%, I think it's safe to bump the minimum BP version to 2.5.
