    I’m running Buddypress Version 2.9.2.

    I have a need to send messages to multiple recipients from one sender.

    I do this thru php.

    My code is below.

    When I have less than about 11 receipients the procedure works.

    When I have 12 recipients the page seems to hang and it creates 2 messages to each recipient.

    I’ve put echo messages to debug in bp-messages-functions.php and without a debugger can’t see what’s happening.

    I was successful sending from one sender to a large array of recipients.

    The problem with that is it’s a group message and one recipient replies they reply to all the recipients and the original sender.

    <?php
    //$arrayTrainers = [118,120,122,123,124,131,132,133]; //works

    $arrayTrainers = [76,77,81,82,118,120,122,123,124,131,132,133]; //doesn’t work

    foreach ($arrayTrainers as $Recipient) {

    $args = array(
    ‘sender_id’ => $Sender,
    ‘recipients’ => $Recipient,
    ‘subject’ => $subject,
    ‘content’ => $longcontent

    );

    $lastThread = messages_new_message( $args ) ;

    } //foreach

    ?>

    messages_new_message() accepts an array argument. “recipients” can be an array of user IDs. Try this:

    $args = array(
    'sender_id'  => bp_loggedin_user_id(),
    'recipients' => array( 76, 77, 81, 82, 118, 120, 122, 123, 124, 131, 132, 133 ),
    'subject'    => 'Test subject',
    'content'    => 'Test content'
);
messages_new_message( $args );

    Yes that method works fine for me.

    I was successful sending from one sender to a large array of recipients.

    The problem with that is it’s a group message and one recipient replies they reply to all the recipients and the original sender.

    That method is a message conversation between one sender and all the recipients.

    If a recipient replies the other recipients get that reply.

    I want many one way conversations, not one conversation with many.

    I ended up writing my own code to send messages.

    Now I can send many messages as needed for my website.

    I suspect this in a php plugin issue when it gets in a longer for loop since when I have larger numbers to loop thru the code seems to take much much longer.

    I think I’ll put my code in a plugin.

    If someone has this issue again.

    It may be something in my code also.

    But I don’t know how to debug step thru the php code on a web page.
