@naijaping, what a good job. Please can you share some of your code with us.

1 how to have a notification menu like urs friend request, message etc.

Or better still if you can give me ur child theme. I dont mind to pay some quid.

Awaiting ur reply.
Thanks

2 how did you get auto loadmore working.

3 also online / offline user icon.

@medemlooper It just does not work, is there an error in the syntax, did you forget the add action below the function? Just curious because I can not get it to work. I wish there was an easier way to do this because It would be awesome. Please help I am stuck and I have done just about everything I know to do to get this going!

@modemlooper I used the code you supplied on gethub and I put it in my child themes functions.php between opening and closing php tags. Then I placed bp_notification_badge() within opening and closing php tags in the header.php just under the div id=”header” and nothing shows up at all. What have I done wrong?

@modemlooper I am interested in using this too! Just for clarification would you place the function in the link you provided https://gist.github.com/modemlooper/5042788 in functions.php in my child theme then edit the header.php and then add as a li item in the menu or somewhere else in the header.php? Then style it in the style.css. Thank you!

Hi, that is just what I (and think a lot of us) need. Nothing yet about the widget code?

P.S: In this moment I’m using BuddyBar widget (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddybar-widget/) plugin is not as good as @naijaping code but do its job. A god thing about this plugin is than give You a Log in form and after log in, it changes to something like @naijaping widget.

Set your users to the Contributor role, not Editor. Contributors can write drafts, but can’t publish.

I also want these people to receive notifications every time a new post is published.

If you specifically mean notifications inside BuddyPress, I’m not aware of any plugins that do this. You’ll have to write something yourself. If you mean notifications more generally, consider using the Jetpack plugin — users can subscribe to your site, and receive email updates when a post is published.

Regardless of what type of notification you meant, you’ll probably have to write some custom code to get it to send a message to your users when e.g. you promote them to Editor.

Hi,

this is a code I use personally, but requires you to edit the bp-groups-actions.php, sorry i do not know how to write function.

open buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-actions.php

around line 150

After this line:
`do_action( ‘groups_group_create_complete’, $bp->groups->new_group_id );`

Add this code:
` $to = “YOUREMAILADDRESS”;
$name= bp_core_get_username(bp_loggedin_user_id());
$groupname = bp_get_new_group_name(bp_get_new_group_id());
$groupurl = bp_get_group_permalink( $bp->groups->current_group );
$subject = “$name created new group $groupname”;
$body = “$name created new group $groupname, visit $groupurl”;
mail($to, $subject, $body);
`

That’s it, when a user hit the Finish create group button this code will send to the email stated address with the newly created group link. use at your own risk. Hope someone better can create a theme function or a plugin for this.

This is needed to keep track of newly created groups to alert you if spammers are creating groups to spam.

Hope it helps.

I did find this one: Tagged User Notification It seems to be working so far.

// the problem with your code:
$bp->bp_like->slug = ‘bp_like’;

do_action( ‘bp_like_setup_globals’ );

Whilst I’ve not used it http://buddydev.com/buddypress/buddypress-user-notifications-widget-plugin/ may be useful for this – not sure if updated. I’d say you want to show as a number on top of a png background right? Writing to a png is a whole another story 🙂
