Filtering search results based on ActiveMember360 permissions

Hi!

Thank you for all the details.

Can you please also add temporary FTP details? I will try to check the membership plugin API, and construct a custom code within the functions.php if possible.

Thank you, that worked perfectly.

So, I inspected the activemember API via their source code, and I may have found the solution. I have placed the following custom code to the functions.php file in your active child-theme directory:

add_filter('asp_results', 'asp_mbr_filter_posts', 10, 1);
function asp_mbr_filter_posts( $results ) {
  foreach ( $results as $k => $r ) {
    if ( !mbr_match_user_content($r->id) ) {
      unset($resuls[$k]);
    }
  }           
  
  return $results;
}

There was no documentation about this in their API, so I can only hope this is the correct function to use.

Hi,

In this case, can you share the TLC user details, so I can use it for testing the functions? Also, can you point me which posts should not be there, when searching when logged in as that user?
It is more than enough if you give me a test search phrase to use, and tell which posts should not be there. I will try this again with a different approach, but this time I will know if it’s working or not.

Thank you very much!

The code was actually fine, I just made a typo on line 11. I have corrected the mistake, it should work now. The final, correct code is:

add_filter('asp_results', 'asp_mbr_filter_posts', 10, 1);
function asp_mbr_filter_posts( $results ) {
  foreach ( $results as $k => $r ) {
    if ( !mbr_match_user_content($r->id) ) {
      unset($results[$k]);
    }
  }           
  
  return $results;
}

Hi!

Thank you for all the details. It indeed does not work, it looks like my previous solution does not work after all. The problem is, that I don’t know what else to try – it would probably take long hours to study their code and somehow get the proper function to integrate with this.

I have tried a few different solutions, but none of them seem to work. Can you please ask their developer, what is the proper way of checking programatically, if the current user has access to a given post by the post ID?

Hi,

Yes, that is very helpful actually. So, based on this API description, this is the right one:

add_filter('asp_results', 'asp_mbr_filter_posts', 10, 1);
function asp_mbr_filter_posts( $results ) {
	foreach ( $results as $k => $r ) {
		$access = apply_filters( 'mbr/match_user_content', $r->id, true );
		if ( !$access ) {
			unset($results[$k]);
		}
	}           

	return $results;
}
