Wordpress Buddypress always show members list of group - wordpress

Question

I'm working on a Wordpress/Buddypress project and I would like to make the members list of group always visible whether or not the group is private and the logged member belong to the group.
I was thinking I had to change access and visibility of the nav items so I did that:
function change_access_group_nav_tabs() {
if(bp_is_group()) {
buddypress()->groups->nav->edit_nav( array('visibility' => 'public'), 'members', bp_current_item() );
buddypress()->groups->nav->edit_nav( array('access' => 'anyone'), 'members', bp_current_item() );
}
}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'change_access_group_nav_tabs' );
But it didn't work…
Any suggestion how to proceed?

Answer 1

I found a workaround, I'am quite not completely satisfied but...
First of all, disable members list on group:
function change_access_group_nav_tabs() {
if(bp_is_group()) {
buddypress()->groups->nav->edit_nav( array( 'user_has_access' => false ), 'members', bp_current_item() );
}
}
add_action( 'bp_actions', 'change_access_group_nav_tabs' );`
(btw, setting the value to true actually make the the nav items always here, but we still can't access the group list on click)
And then I simply add a custom BP Group Extension to make my own members list:
class Group_Extension_List_Members extends BP_Group_Extension {
function __construct() {
$args = array(
'slug' => 'members-list',
'name' => 'Membres',
'access' => array( 'anyone'),
'show_tab' => array( 'anyone'),
'nav_item_position' => 12,
'screens' => array(
'create' => array(
'enabled' => false
),
'edit' => array(
'enabled' => false
),
)
);
parent::init( $args );
}
function display( $group_id = NULL ) {
//Remove user who do not belong to the group on members loop
function filter_for_groups( $members_template_has_members, $members_template, $r ) {
for ($i=sizeof($members_template->members)-1; $i >= 0 ; $i--) {
$user_id = $members_template->members[$i]->id;
if(!groups_is_user_member( $user_id, bp_get_group_id() )){
$members_template->member_count = $members_template->member_count-1;
array_splice($members_template->members, $i, 1);
}
}
if ($members_template->member_count <= 0) {
return '';
} else {
return $members_template_has_members;
}
};
add_filter( 'bp_has_members', 'filter_for_groups', 10, 3 );
require('/Your/theme/custom/members/loop/members-loop.php');
}
}
bp_register_group_extension( 'Group_Extension_List_Members' );
Hope it will help other in the future, And I'm still open to know the good way to proceed.
