Hi,
i’m searching for a way to solve the following problem. First of all, you filter plugIn works very good. But i’m missing a function to hide at start all members. I don’t want to show the full list from beginning. I want to show the members only after the search. Is there a way to do that? Best regards.

Wanted to second this suggestion. I just came here researching the same question. Love your plugin and could use the functionality as well.

thanks Andreas. When do you think we can expect the feature?

Hi Andrea,

i think i have found a solution. Maybe you can double-check this.

bps-search.php

I have changed in function function bps_filter_members ($querystring, $object)

$request = bps_get_request ('search');
if (empty ($request))  return $querystring;

with

      $request = bps_get_request ('search');
 
           // Hide all members, if no search is active
        if (empty($request)) {
            parse_str($querystring, $args);
            $args['include'] = '0'; // Dummy-value, to be sure, to show no user
            return http_build_query($args);
        }

That works for me. Can you please check, if this is a good solution? You know your code better than me.

Hi all,

The new BP Profile Search version 5.8.1 contains the feature you requested, please see BP Profile Search 5.8.1 for details.

Thanks again to Dominik for the idea and the code!
