    The page you linked to describes how to add a web notification. The example on that page hooks to the bp_activity_sent_mention_email action which means every time bp_activity_sent_mention_email is executed, a web notification will be sent. In your case, you’d still use bp_notifications_add_notification() to send the notification but you will want to send a notification to a particular member only if a friend of that member has a birthday.

    The wp_schedule_event() function might be helpful to you: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_schedule_event

    Thanks Henry,

    Unfortunately I struggle to understand how to produce the code, I’m not a code expert like you guys.

    Here is what I have and how I would like to implement it for my friend’s birthday:
    bIRTHDAY nOTIFICATIONS

    I have found this that mentioned the “bp_notifications_add_notification()” function:

    BuddyPress: Adding Custom Notifications

    That is for notifications when someone comments on their blog post, but it is far too complex for me to modify for birthdays I’m afraid 🙁

    Any chance somebody could share the code?

    Hi there,

    I have extended profile (dashboard > User > Profile Fields) with birthday (day/month/year drop down menu).
    How can a user receive notifications for his friends birthdays?

    Found something here: :https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/function-examples/bp_notifications_add_notification/

    but I don’t know how to modify code.

    Could you please assist?

    Yes, I also think the same. You are right!
