For anyone else trying to figure this out, I didn’t find THE solution, but I did find A solution… it’s simple javascript. Wrap your notification in a div with the class “count” or whatever works for you, and hide it when its content is ‘0’.

<div class="count">
	<?php echo bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( bp_loggedin_user_id() ); ?>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
	//HIDE NOTIFICATION IF COUNT IS ZERO
	let divs = document.getElementsByClassName('count');

	for (let x = 0; x < divs.length; x++) {
	    let div = divs[x];
	    let content = div.innerHTML.trim();

	    if (content == '0') {
	        div.style.display = 'none';
	    }
	}
</script>

Thank you so much for your reply!

If I’m understanding you correctly, I put the code in like this…

<?php
	$count = bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( bp_loggedin_user_id() );
	$count = empty( $count ) ? '' : $count;
?>

But that doesn’t seem to be working. Am I doing something wrong?
