 * Hi
 * I have a great plugin there.
 * I just wanted to know if it is possible that only approved users (not registered
   users) can access the private groups and any other data that is only accessible
   by logged in users?

 * Should be able to do this via the “Private Network” option. That’ll limit a user
   to just their profile until approved, and anyone no logged in to just the frontpage
   and other non-BuddyPress based areas.
 * Note that we don’t exclude from the ENTIRE site, just the BuddyPress/bbPress 
   areas.

 * Hi
 * Thanks for your reply.
 * But via “Private Network” option the user who is not approved but just registered
   are still able to access the group data and members.

 * Can you provide me what group data/members and how they’re viewing those? For
   instance, are they seeing it via a displayed widget? or is it at a specific URL?
 * There’s possible cases of “holes” that I don’t have covered yet, that I try to
   include in future updates. Just a matter of figuring out what they are, and how
   to prevent. If it’s 3rd party plugins that extend BuddyPress itself, it’s more
   likely not covered, as most of these “hole” covering is for BuddyPress itself.
