BuddyPress.org

@patricksaad
I was just informing you of the release of the plugin which works perfectly in my test environment. If you can get your code working and integrated into the core great, if not there is a viable option already.

@patricksaad
There is now a premium plugin for activity stream throttling from BuddyDev:

Introducing BuddyPress Rate Limit User Activity: Throttle user updates/activities on a BuddyPress Based Site

@funmi-omoba @sooskriszta @tifire @ubernaut @patricksaad
Thanks to the hard work of @sbrajesh at BuddyDev we now have a solution get it here:

BuddyPress Limit Friendship Request

@patricksaad
It would be a good plugin, from what I can see your method involves throttling for the activity stream correct? Not really projected towards friend request correct? I personally would like to see this feature towards both so hopefully it will come to fruition. Maybe you can create two plugins off this idea?

@patricksaad Thank you! Can it also be added for comments? friend requests, activity, etc. we know bbpress has it so everything else other than forum posts (via bbpress) would be helpful to have throttling

@chouf1 I believe patrick’s comment on that ticket is relevant:

“The function bp_core_check_for_flood in bbp-core-moderation.php is not hooked to anything. No flood control on activity page.”

@patricksaad could you pls submit a patch to trac?

@patricksaad,
apologize if i mentionned your blog, but it was the only place i found speaking about this problem.
FYI, “throttling” is used in BP 1.7.2, but a minima. Should be extanded much more. I guess it’s preferably you open an ehancement ticket on the Trac.
And thank you for sharing your code. 😉
