Hi Joe and Nat,

Can you provide some more details?

plugins used
theme used
WP and BP versions
any console errors or notices

@cityfox the only problem with that approach is it doesn’t consider pagination.

Hi @bruce30

The code I posted isn’t for cutting and pasting. It’s the name of the functions you could use to complete the task. And the text that follows is an overview of the things you’ll need to do when using those functions.

Hi @bruce30

You would use bp_messages_update_meta() and bp_messages_get_meta() to add data to and retrieve data from the table. One approach could be to add the user’s ID once the message is viewed and display some kind of indicator on the page to the rest of the message participants.

Oops, my apologies. This should work:

function browserco_filter_add_friend_button( $button ) {
$member_type = bp_get_member_type( bp_displayed_user_id() );
if ( 'business' !== $member_type ) {
return $button;
}
return "";
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_add_friend_button', 'browserco_filter_add_friend_button'…

Thanks @r-a-y, I think I was looking at an out-of-date database. 🙂

I don’t think there’s a message meta table so you’d need to save some data to user meta when bp_after_message_thread_content fires.

Alternatively there may be a plugin available but I’m not aware of one.

You should let the theme author know there’s a problem, and hopefully they can issue a fix.

Try this:

function browserco_filter_add_friend_button( $button ) {
$member_type = bp_get_member_type( bp_displayed_user_id() );
if ( 'business' !== $member_type ) {
return $button;
}
return "";
}
add_filter( 'browserco_filter_add_friend_button', 'bp_get_add_friend_button' );

Could be a theme issue. Which theme are you using? Does the same thing happen if you use Twenty Fifteen or Twenty Sixteen?

You can open a bug report for this on Trac (the login details will be the same as those you use here in this forum).

BP Simple Private might be helpful?

Hi @hatherley

security [at] wordpress.org is the place to contact about this kind of thing.

The speed improvements of 7.0 are hard to resist. Apparently it’s 2x as fast as 5.6 (I haven’t upgraded yet) but if you can’t use your caching plugin yet then personally I’d wait. I reckon you’ll get a faster website with caching in place V the speed improvements of 7.0 without caching.

Earlier today I added the following to my functions.php file:

add_filter( ‘bp_activity_do_mentions’, ‘__return_false’ );

No @mention emails were generated since then. As soon as I commented that code out, within 5-10 minutes thirteen @mention email notifications went out – all with links to content that is years old (pre-import).

@reedy to my knowledge BuddyPress doesn’t implement any cron jobs, especially ones that send email.

they seem to more or less be coming out every time a page is loaded

This indicates something is hooked to init, or bp_loaded etc. But that would almost certainly be custom code because nothing in BuddyPress or bbPress would hook to those events…[Read more]

I very much doubt my install has been compromised. In fact, searching through the buddypress support forum it seems this is an issue that crops up after imports

That suggests your import script is the issue. Which script are you using?

In the mean time you could ask your host to deactivate your mail server, until you find a fix?

That should have been posted on another topic. sorry about that! I’ve deleted it from above 🙂

If you’re running vanilla WordPress, with BuddyPress as the only plugin installed and you’re sure you have no custom code in place, it may mean your install has been compromised. You should check to be sure this isn’t the case.

Just a thought, have you tried using a standard theme such as Twenty Fifteen?
