Help needed with BP Messaging Control plugin bugs

    Hi,
    I am using the “BuddyPress Messaging Control” plugin (available here) and ran into some bugs with it. The creator has not responded so I thought I should ask here.

    Issue 1:
    This plugin is used to restrict who (based on user roles) can send how many messages to whom and within what time period, eg free user roles can send 10 messages a week or only reply to messages sent to them, but paid users can send unlimited messages to anyone).

    When I tested this plugin with the latest Buddypress and WordPress version and BuddyX theme, when you go to send a message, and your account is restricted, there is a message that says “Your messaging is capped, you can send a further”. and “Your messaging is set to Reply Only, you can only message users who have previously sent you a message, in addition you are only able to send another”. It doesn’t show the quota, and I would like for it to show it, because this just looks silly.

    Issue 2 and 3:
    In the Buddyboss platform (Buddyboss says anything made for Buddypress is compatible with Buddyboss, but it doesn’t actually seem so) the messages can be sent by simply pressing enter, there is even a message that says “Enter to Send Shift+Enter to add a new line”. But, pressing the “enter” key doesn’t visibly do anything, ie the message that you typed still stays in the text box, it doesn’t move to the sent messages box, so it is not obvious that a message was sent. Then the user will repeatedly press “enter” until they run out of their alloted messages. Then a message appears that says “There was a problem sending your message.”

    The first of this issue is obviously the message not “sending” upon pressing “enter”.
    The second of this issue is that the message itself is vague and not specific: It should say “You have used up your message quota for this period.”

    I am wondering if anyone can help with fixing these things.
    Thank you in advance.
