BuddyPress.org

Hi Christian,
There is one functionality in BuddyPress that allows it. You can see the feature as site wide notice(Mark a message as notice).

The problem is currently, only a user with the capability ‘bp_moderate’ can send the notice. Do you want to allow this notification feature for all users or just selected few?

Hi Chaitanya,
Try this code.

function bpfr_add_notification_to_page_title( $title, $original_title, $sep  ) {
	
	//do not change if the user is not logged in
	if( ! is_user_logged_in() )
		return $title;
	
	$user_id = get_current_user_id();//logged in user's id
	
	$count = bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( $user_id );
	
	if( $count > 0 )
		$title = sprintf( "You Have %d New Notification(s) - ", $count );
	
	return $title;
	
	
}
add_filter( 'wp_title', 'bpfr_add_notification_to_page_title', 100, 3 );

I have modified the code from your last post. The difference is, It only does it for logged in users. Also, I have decreased the priority to make it work on BuddyPress pages( otherwide bp_modify_title would have overwritten it).

Hope that helps.

Try this (tested on 2.2 RC2)

function bpfr_add_notification_to_page_title( $title, $original_title, $sep, $seplocation  ) {
	global $bp;
	if( bp_is_user() && ! bp_get_member_user_id() ) {
        $user_id = 'displayed: '. bp_displayed_user_id();
    } else {
        $user_id = 'get_member_user: '. bp_get_member_user_id();
    }

	if (bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( $user_id ) ) {

		$counter = 0;
			for ( $i = 0; $i < count($notifications); $i++ ) {
				echo $notifications[$i];
			$counter++;
			}	

	if ( bp_is_profile_component() || bp_is_current_action( 'just-me' ) ) {
		
			$title .= bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count() . " $sep ";
    }
		return $title;
	}
}
add_filter( 'bp_modify_page_title', 'bpfr_add_notification_to_page_title', 9, 4 );

…how do I get it?

That depends. For example:

If you want the currently logged-in user:

$user_id = bp_loggedin_user_id();

If the context is a member’s profile page and you want the displayed member:

$user_id = bp_displayed_user_id();

So, depending on the above, what you need may be either:

bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( bp_loggedin_user_id() );

or

bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( bp_displayed_user_id() );

Because we’re talking about notifications, it’s likely you’ll want the former because you wouldn’t really need to show somebody else’s notifications count.

There’s 2 types of notifications: a) read and b) unread.

bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( $user_id ) will get you the unread count so you could use that value in the comparison you mentioned here.

Try this

if ( $notifications = bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user( $user_id, $format = 'string' ) ) { 

		$counter = 0;
			for ( $i = 0; $i < count($notifications); $i++ ) {
			$alt = ( 0 == $counter % 2 ) ? ' class="alt"' : ''; 

			echo '<span ="'.$alt.'">'. $notifications[$i] .'</span>';

			$counter++;
			}	

We’re looking to improve the invite process for BuddyPress 2.3.

I’m going to ping @dcavins, as he will be implementing the invite improvements, so he’s aware of this.

Just to answer your questions:

Notification in the profile window’s (there are 3 notifications: message (1) – friends (1) – but in GROUPS there is no notification).

The “Groups > No Pending Invites” nav item is for invites you have requested. Not invites that are pending for the entire group.

The user (A) has posted in a group wall’s and the user (B) has done a comment.
The user (A) hasn’t received notification neither admin toolbar or administration profile windows.

Currently, notifications do not occur for activity comments. We’ll likely add this enhancement into core eventually, but for now, you’ll have to use a plugin for this:

BuddyPress Activity Comment Notifier

The user (A) has opened a forum in a grup. The user (B) has done a comment.
The user (A) has received notification in the administratio toolbar. But when the user (A) has done a comment the user (B) don’t has received the notification.

How did user A reply to user B? On the group activity homepage or on the actual group forum topic? If user A replied on the group forum topic, then this sounds like an issue with bbPress, not BuddyPress.

Try this:

function jessicana_redirect_page( $redirect_to, $request, $user ) {
    $redirect_to = bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID) . 'notifications/';
    return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter('login_redirect', 'jessicana_redirect_page', 11, 3);

Thxs @shanebp, i ignored that. 🙄

Corrected function here:

function bpfr_sidebar_notifications_menu() {
global $bp;

    // if user is not logged, we do nothing
	if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
	return false;

	// if user is group member, show him notification + count	
if ( groups_is_user_member( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $bp->groups->current_group->id ) && $notifications = bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user( $user_id, $format = 'string' ) ) { 

		$counter = 0;
			for ( $i = 0; $i < count($notifications); $i++ ) {
			$alt = ( 0 == $counter % 2 ) ? ' class="alt"' : ''; 

			echo '<p ="'.$alt.'"><i class="fa fa-group"></i>'. $notifications[$i] .'</p>';

			$counter++;
			}	
	}
}

Shows anything group related to the concerned group member.
Mentions, membership request/reject, promotion,…

Nice @danbp, but a couple of issues…

bp_core_get_notifications_for_user is deprecated.

Instead use bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user( $user_id, $format = 'string' )

And I’d try using $format = 'object' so you can loop thru the results and only display those items related to that group.

Of course, this will only get notifications for a single person.
I’m not sure if there would be notifications for a group other than activity update…?

hi ouegy,

Add this snippet to your child-theme functions.php and give it a try.

First function grabs the notification
Second function allows to add a hook to the template (in your case sidebar.php)
And the hook to use.

function bpfr_sidebar_notifications_menu() {
global $bp;

    // if user is not logged, we do nothing
	if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
	return false;

	// if user is group member, show him notification + count
	if ( groups_is_user_member( bp_loggedin_user_id(), $bp->groups->current_group->id ) && $notifications = bp_core_get_notifications_for_user( $bp->loggedin_user->id ) ) { 

		echo '<ul>';

		$counter = 0;
			for ( $i = 0; $i < count($notifications); $i++ ) {
			$alt = ( 0 == $counter % 2 ) ? ' class="alt"' : ''; 

			echo '<li ="'.$alt.'"><i class="fa fa-group"></i>'. $notifications[$i] .'</li>';

			$counter++;
			echo '</ul>';
			}	
	}
}

function bpfr_xtra_group_sidebar() {	
	// show notification only on the group sidebar
	if(bp_is_groups_component() ):
	// your content
		 bpfr_sidebar_notifications_menu();
	endif;

}
add_action( 'xtragroup', 'bpfr_xtra_group_sidebar' );

The hook to add to sidebar.php (or any other template)
<?php do_action( 'xtragroup' ); ?>

Hope this help ! 😉

@hypnoscribe @milenushka @style960 default notifications are posted at https://codex.buddypress.org/member-guide/notifications/ set up in your Profile Settings > Notifications panel.
