Hello @henrywright,

Thanks for your reply.i am working with my custom code but i am unable to do,i have try many times with my added custom code.in Notification section I want accept and reject both button functionality on notification section in place of Read|Delete action and also want same functionality like accept and reject both button working and also i want hide and remove when user accept or reject
friend request then notification should be hide or remove from notification section.

Please if you have any code or solution please share.

For what ever reason I did not receive the email notification for your response.

My users are showing now, I figured out what I was doing wrong.

Hello danbp,
Sorry for my late reply. I tried testing out with the twenty fifteen theme but it won’t show the notifications. I am also not using any notifications plugin (I tried on but didn’t resolve the issue either). No other errors are being generated, all links are working except for the user profile in the notification. It seems to be automatically adding the root folder and the members folder into the URL instead of just going directly to the user profile URL. Is there anything in the notifications php that I can edit to fix this?

Thanks!
Teri

Hello,

– I activate the original WP twentyfifteen-theme, and i see no errors in the developer console (Chrome browser)

Is this an issue? Have more people this?
Can i adding manually the private button links?

This are the installed plugins:
– All In One WP Security
– Black Studio TinyMCE Widget
– Bowe Codes
– BP Registration Options
– Bp Stickers
– BuddyPress Members only
– BuddyPress
– Child Theme Configurator
– Contact Form 7
– Duplicator
– Events Manager
– FB like notification for buddypress
– Loco Translate
– Page Builder by SiteOrigin
– Peter’s Login Redirect
– Really Simple CAPTCHA
– SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle
– User Switching (deactivated for the moment!)
– WP Statistics

The strange thing is that all the buttons showing correctly in the user profiles when nothing a friend.

(sorry for my bad english!)

okay, This is almost done, but is really rare, not everything works as it should.
First of all, this is not a pluggin, I am writing all these code in bp-functions.php in my bududdypress folder within my theme folder. (this may be my problem).
Step by step:
1st Problem setup globals is not working as it espected:

define( 'BP_NOTIFIER_CELBIRTHDAY_SLUG', 'celbirthday_notifier' );
function celbirthday_notifier_setup_globals () {
	global $bp, $wpdb;
	$bp = buddypress();
	
	$bp->celbirthday_notifier = new stdClass();
	$bp->celbirthday_notifier->id = 'celbirthday_notifier'; //I asume others are not going to use this is
	$bp->celbirthday_notifier->slug = BP_NOTIFIER_CELBIRTHDAY_SLUG;
	$bp->celbirthday_notifier->notification_callback = 'celbirthday_notifier_format_notifications'; //show the notification
	
	$bp->active_components[$bp->celbirthday_notifier->id] = $bp->celbirthday_notifier->id;

	do_action( 'bp_setup_globals' );
}

This function is not doing nothing unless I call it directly:
celbirthday_notifier_setup_globals ();
I Know this is not the proper way, but it is the only way I found to make it run.
Does anyone know why it does not work properly?

Continue with the notification:

//Format notifications
function celbirthday_notifier_format_notifications( $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items, $format = 'string' ) {
 if ( 'new_birthday' === $action ) {
	if ( (int) $total_items > 1 ) {
	      
	    if ( 'string' === $format ) {
			$famoso_name =  get_the_title( $secondary_item_id );
			return apply_filters( 'celebrities_multiple_verifications_notification','Say Happybirthday to '.$famoso_name);	  
		  }
      } else {	 
      if ( 'string' === $format ) {  //falta definir $famoso_link y mas 
	   $famoso_name =  get_the_title( $secondary_item_id );
	  	return apply_filters( 'celebrities_single_verifications_notification','Say Happybirthday to '.$famoso_name);
         // $return = apply_filters( $filter, '<a href="' . esc_url( $famoso_link ) . '" title="birthday anounce">' . esc_html( $text ) . '</a>', (int) $total_items, $text, $famoso_link );
		// $message = apply_filters( 'bp_activity_at_message_notification_message', $message, $poster_name, $content, $message_link, $settings_link );

	} } }
 do_action( 'celbirthday_notifier_format_notifications', $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items ); 
return false; }

ok, this format function is working right, although I have to do some more work. After it, I have two more functions (mark and delete notifications) wich are also working fine.

//mark notification
function celebrities_mark_screen_notifications() {
	global $bp;
	
	bp_notifications_mark_notifications_by_item_id( $bp->loggedin_user->id, $bp->celbirthday_notifier->id, 'new_birthday', $secondary_item_id = false, $is_new='0');
}
add_action( 'bp_notifications_screen', 'celebrities_mark_screen_notifications' ); 

and…

function celbirthday_notifier_remove_screen_notifications() {
	global $bp;
	
	bp_core_delete_notifications_for_user_by_type( $bp->loggedin_user->id, $bp->profile->slug, 'new_birthday' );
}
add_action( 'bp_notifications_screen', 'celbirthday_notifier_remove_screen_notifications' );
add_action( 'xprofile_screen_display_profile', 'celbirthday_notifier_remove_screen_notifications' );

As I say, this works fine, but a I am not sure if I need the second “add_action” (xprofile screen).
And finally, to add notification I use this code (which is not working):

//Adding notification
function buddypress_celebrities_add_notification() 
{    
if ( bp_is_active( 'notifications' ) )
 {  

	$fecha_act = date("Y-m-d");
	$res_birth = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT wp_best_favs.user_id, wp_postmeta.post_id
					FROM wp_best_favs
					LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta ON ( wp_postmeta.post_id = wp_best_favs.celeb_ID ) 
					WHERE (
					wp_postmeta.meta_key =  'fecha_na')
					AND (DAY(  <code>wp_postmeta</code>.<code>meta_value</code> ) = DAY(  '$fecha_act' ))					
					AND (MONTH(  <code>wp_postmeta</code>.<code>meta_value</code> ) = MONTH(  '$fecha_act' ))
					");
			$res_birth = array_filter($res_birth);  
			$matriz = objectToArray($res_birth);  //I use this function to convert objet array to simple array
			if(count($matriz)==0) 
			{ 
				// está vacío 
			}  else { 
				global $wpdb;
				$bp = buddypress();
				$current_time = bp_core_current_time();
				foreach ($matriz as $v1) {
					
					$famoso_id = $v1[post_id];
					$receiver_user_id = $v1[user_id];
						
				$args = array(
					'user_id'           => $receiver_user_id,
					'item_id'           => $famoso_id,
					'secondary_item_id' => $famoso_id,
					'component_name'    => $bp->celbirthday_notifier->slug,
					'component_action'  => 'new_birthday',
					'date_notified'     => $current_time,
					'is_new'            => 1,
	       				 );
			 bp_notifications_add_notification( $args );
		}
	}
 } 
} 
do_action( 'bp_init', 'buddypress_celebrities_add_notification' ); 

So this is my bigger problem:
Add notifications (function buddypress_celebrities_add_notification()) is not working.
I am pretty sure this is because I am not hooking properly, but I tried so many hooks and none of it did work.
I Know the code is fine because if I comment the two first lines and the two last lines (so I run the code not as a function) the notifications are being added to database.

Anyone can help me, to find a proper hook, or just pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks @danbp ,
I´ll try to explain you:

I have a custom_post_type (celebrities). it real name is “famosos”.
BuddyPressUsers can mark any celebrity as fasvourite.
This part is working fine.
So now, I am trying to send a notification (to users that have marked as favorite certain celebriry) that “today” is that celebrity´s birthday.

For that purpose, I have a SQL query that works fine and gives me an array with budypress user id and the celebritie post id. (this is also working fine)

SO I have to setup a custom notificationa that checks every day that SQL QUery to gets users and celebrities ids to notify user about today´s birthday (of their favourite celebrities)

and this is what I did at first:

define( 'BP_ACTIVITY_CELBIRTHDAY_SLUG', 'celbirthday_notifier' );
function celbirthday_notifier_setup_globals () {
	
	$bp = buddypress();
	
	$bp->celbirthday_notifier = new stdClass();
	$bp->celbirthday_notifier->id = 'celbirthday_notifier'; //I asume others are not going to use this is
	$bp->celbirthday_notifier->slug = BP_ACTIVITY_CELBIRTHDAY_SLUG;
	$bp->celbirthday_notifier->notification_callback = 'celbirthday_notifier_format_notifications'; //show the notification
	
	$bp->active_components[$bp->celbirthday_notifier->id] = $bp->celbirthday_notifier->id;

	do_action( 'celbirthday_notifier_setup_globals' );
}

add_action( 'bp_setup_globals', 'celbirthday_notifier_setup_globals' );

and then try to format the notification:

function celbirthday_notifier_format_notifications( $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items, $format = 'string' ) {
 if ( 'new_birthday' === $action ) {
                $famoso_name =  get_the_title( $secondary_item_id );
		$subject = 'Celebrity birthday';
		$message = 'Say happy birthday to $famoso_name';
		$content = 'Tody is $famoso_name birthday .....somethin else ';
		if ( (int) $total_items > 1 ) {
          $text = sprintf( __( 'You have %d celebrities birthday', 'bbpress' ), (int) $total_items );
          $filter = 'bp_activity_at_message_notification_message';
      } else {
          if ( !empty( $secondary_item_id ) ) {
              //nada
          } else {
              $text = sprintf( __( 'You have %d new birthday of %s', 'bbpress' ), (int) $total_items, $famoso_name );
          }
          $filter = 'bp_activity_at_message_notification_message';
      }
	 }
      if ( 'string' === $format ) {  //falta definir $famoso_link y mas 
          $return = apply_filters( $filter, '<a href="' . esc_url( $famoso_link ) . '" title="birthday anounce">' . esc_html( $text ) . '</a>', (int) $total_items, $text, $famoso_link );
		// $message = apply_filters( 'bp_activity_at_message_notification_message', $message, $poster_name, $content, $message_link, $settings_link );

} } do_action( 'celbirthday_notifier_format_notifications', $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items );

and then add notification this way:

function buddypress_celebrities_add_notification( $fecha_act,  $famoso_name, $receiver_user_id) 
{    if ( bp_is_active( 'notifications' ) ) { 

	$fecha_act = date("Y-m-d");
	$res_birth = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT wp_best_favs.user_id, wp_postmeta.post_id
					FROM wp_best_favs
					LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta ON ( wp_postmeta.post_id = wp_best_favs.celeb_ID ) 
					WHERE (
					wp_postmeta.meta_key =  'fecha_na')
					AND (DAY(  <code>wp_postmeta</code>.<code>meta_value</code> ) = DAY(  '$fecha_act' ))					AND (MONTH(  <code>wp_postmeta</code>.<code>meta_value</code> ) = MONTH(  '$fecha_act' )							)
									") ;
			$res_birth = array_filter($res_birth);  
			$matriz = objectToArray($res_birth);  //convertimos el array de objetos en array normal para manejarlo mas facil
			$current_time = bp_core_current_time();
			if(count($matriz)==0) { 
				// está vacío 
				}  else { 
					global $wpdb;
					$bp = buddypress();
					$subject = 'Celebrity birthday';
					$message = '1 Say happy birthday to $famoso_name';
					$content = '2 Say happy birthday to $famoso_name';
					foreach ($matriz as $v1) {
					
						$famoso_id = $v1[post_id];
						$famoso_name = get_the_title ($v1[post_id]);
						$receiver_user_id = $v1[user_id];
						
					$args = array(
							'user_id'           => $receiver_user_id,
							'item_id'           => $famoso_id,
							'secondary_item_id' => $famoso_id,
							'component_name'    => $bp->celbirthday_notifier->id,
							'component_action'  => 'new_birthday',
							'date_notified'     => $current_time,
							'is_new'            => 1,
	       					 );
							 
							 bp_notifications_add_notification( $args );
						 
			}	}  }	} add_action( 'new_birthday', 'buddypress_celebrities_add_notification', 10, 1 );

so far this is what I am trying to do, hope you understand.
Thanks in advance.

I figured this out by cobbling together some code. Just copy this into a new .php file, upload to /plugins and activate. You’ll need to change ‘Referrer’ to whatever profile field you have instead.

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Custom New User Email
Description: Changes the copy in the email sent out to new users
*/
 
// Redefine user notification function
if ( !function_exists('wp_new_user_notification') ) {
    function wp_new_user_notification( $user_id, $plaintext_pass = '' ) {
        $user = get_userdata( $user_id );
      
	// The blogname option is escaped with esc_html on the way into the database in sanitize_option
	// we want to reverse this for the plain text arena of emails.
	$blogname = wp_specialchars_decode(get_option('blogname'), ENT_QUOTES);
	
	// find the profile field for referrer
	$field1 = xprofile_get_field_data( 'Referrer', $user_id );

	$message  = sprintf(__('New user registration on your site %s:'), $blogname) . "\r\n\r\n";
	$message .= sprintf(__('Username: %s'), $user->user_login) . "\r\n\r\n";
	$message .= sprintf(__('E-mail: %s'), $user->user_email) . "\r\n\r\n";
	$message .= sprintf(__('Referrer: %s'), $field1) . "\r\n";

	@wp_mail(get_option('admin_email'), sprintf(__('[%s] New User Registration'), $blogname), $message);

	if ( empty($plaintext_pass) )
		return;

	$message  = sprintf(__('Username: %s'), $user->user_login) . "\r\n";
	$message .= sprintf(__('Password: %s'), $plaintext_pass) . "\r\n";
	$message .= wp_login_url() . "\r\n";

	wp_mail($user->user_email, sprintf(__('[%s] Your username and password'), $blogname), $message);
 
     }
}
 
?>

Thanks for reply.

Yes I read those articles (…and much more), but still not understanding, Sorry about it, thus I am asking for help.

I don,t understand what do you mean with use a function name twice:
(// do_action( ‘setup_globals’ ); This is commented) ,

is this a better way to do it?:

function sr_notifications_test_setup_globals () {	
	global $bp, $current_blog;
	$bp->sr_notifications_test = new stdClass();
	$bp->sr_notifications_test->id = 'sr_notifications_test';
	$bp->sr_notifications_test->slug = 'sr_notifications_test';
	$bp->sr_notifications_test->notification_callback = 'sr_format_notifications_test'; 
	$bp->active_components[$bp->sr_notifications_test->id] = $bp->sr_notifications_test->id;
	do_action( 'sr_notifications_test_setup_globals ' );
}
add_action( 'bp_notification_settings', 'sr_notifications_test_setup_globals ' ); 

Anyway, what I understood is that I have to write those 3 functions to make my custom notifications works:
1.- setup_globals
2.- format_notifications (called from set_up_globals, notification_callback)
If Iunderstood you´, the filter I have to use is bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user
3.- _add_notification

is this the right way?

Ok, now I am trying this:

//function class

function setup_globals( $args = array() ) {
global $bp;
$sr_notifications_test_slug = 'sr_notifications_test';
parent::setup_globals( array(
'id' => 'sr_notifications_test',
'slug' => $sr_notifications_test_slug,
'notification_callback' => array( $this, 'sr_format_notifications_test' )
) );
/* Register this in the active components array */
$bp->active_components[$sr_notifications_test_slug] = 'sr_notifications_test';
// do_action( 'setup_globals' );
}

//format notofication
function sr_format_notifications_test( $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items, $format = 'string' ) {

switch ( $action ) {
case 'my_test':
$link = get_permalink( $item_id );
$text = 'Test Notification';

$return = apply_filters( $filter, array(
'text' => $text,
'link' => $link
), $link, (int) $total_items, $text, $link, $item_id, $secondary_item_id );
break;
}

do_action( 'sr_format_notifications_test', $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items );
return $return;
}

//Notification added to DB:
bp_notifications_add_notification( array(
'user_id' => $user_id,
'item_id' => $activity->id,
'secondary_item_id' => $activity->user_id,
'component_name' => buddypress()->activity->id,
'component_action' => 'my_test',
'date_notified' => bp_core_current_time(),
'is_new' => 1

) );
print_r ($bp->active_components[$sr_notifications_test_slug]);

and this is the error I have: (still the same)

WordPress database error: [Table 'WP_db_funs.n' doesn't exist]
SELECT * FROM n WHERE component_name IN ('activity') AND component_action IN ('my_test') AND is_new = 1
WordPress database error: [Incorrect table name ”]
INSERT INTO (user_id,item_id,secondary_item_id,component_name,component_action,date_notified,is_new) VALUES (0,0,0,'activity','my_test','2015-08-12 15:57:21′,1)

Please if anybody Knows about this I will apreciate any help 🙁

Table ‘WP_db_funs.n’ doesn’t exist how come?? table n ??

@danbp you are my hero. i tried to find this code for 2 weeks 🙂 you solved that. my theme doesnt contain user menu. So i need to add count of notification. Lastly how can we move this menu items left side of menu?
