Hi Christian,
There is one functionality in BuddyPress that allows it. You can see the feature as site wide notice(Mark a message as notice).
The problem is currently, only a user with the capability ‘bp_moderate’ can send the notice. Do you want to allow this notification feature for all users or just selected few?
Hi
I need it for all users
is an intranet 20 people and will not grow
Hi Christian,
If you want to allow it for all users using the inbuilt notice my not be the best option as it needs bp_moderate capability and I will strongly recommend against giving everyone the ‘bp_moderate’ capability.
If you are comfortable with the code, I will suggest look at the bp-messages component and check now the notices are handled. With some slight modification, you can achieve the same.
hi
I do not feel very comfortable with the code
and if for few users as you would?
I think that is the basic function of an intranet that can be learned all there is a message
is there anyway to can find out all there is a message
Thanks
Hi Christian,
in case of limited no. of trusted users, we can add the capability ‘bp_moderate’. Still, I will say it is a flawed approach and insecure. Please do not try that.
Can you please let me the answers of the following questions and may be I can put some code:-
1. By notice, do you want to show the users who created this notice?
2. I assume there can be more than one notice at a time?
3. Should all users be mailed on notice(also a local notification be generated for each user)
4. Is there anything else you want to be part of this notice feature?
Thanks
Hi
Please find answers hereunder:
1) Yes, please show the user who created the notice
2) No, just one notice at a time, but one message for each user when a user posts a message
3) Yes, all users shall be e-mailed as well as locally notified
4) That would be all regarding the feature
I would like to ask you if there is any plugin that shows the notifications, since the administration bar is disabled.
Thanks
Best Regards
Christian
hi
finally I use the admin bar so I do not need the plugin but if notifications
Thanks
Hi Christian,
no problem. If you decide to not use it again, you can use my plugin BuddyPress notification widget in that case.
About the notice plugin,
I will write the code tonight and put on github and link here.
Thanks

Thank you this really is fantastic forum
another query
it is possible to enlarge the area where the notes are written ?

Thanks
By default, there is a button in the bottom right corner of the notice area which let’s you enlarge it.
