It's possible that using the "Switch User" plugin is not a good way to test..

I've again adjusted the code as per your requirement to the custom code section.

add_filter( 'wpv_filter_force_template', 'prefix_fixed_content_for_visitors', 99, 3 );
    
function prefix_fixed_content_for_visitors( $template_selected, $id, $kind ) {
  global $current_user;
  global $post;
   if(is_singular("profile")) {
     
    if((in_array('student',$current_user->roles) and  $post->post_author != $current_user->ID) and (!in_array('administrator',$current_user->roles) or !in_array('manager',$current_user->roles))
      ){
           
       $template_selected = 1158;
    }
   }
    return $template_selected;
}

Can you please confirm it works now.

It seems to work perfectly! Thank you very much for your patience and help!

I had tried that exact way myself, but looking at your code, I think I'd put the ending }  at the wrong place for the outside loop to check for the profile.

Thanks a million!
