BuddyPress.org

I am de-bugging a new client’s old website. They have over 3k active paying users so this is a bit of a sensitive job.

The issue: I have the buddypress private message system activated and have a php file located: buddypress/members/single/message/single.php

This all works correctly except for the “message” variable. When the user gets a private message it shows up appropriately in their inbox with the “highlight” tag displaying the email and excerpt (which is basically the whole message if it’s short).

I understand the the $message variable is packaged into a $content variable which is served as that highlight. So the excerpt displays the actual private message that is sent in the inbox list, but when you open that actual message, the massage that was in the excerpt is replaced with “[deleted]”

It might be helpful to note these are messages sent from non-users of the website. These people sending the messages are not logged in and should be able to simply leave a message to this persons inbox. The user comes back as “Deleted User” since they aren’t logged in, but all I need to find out is how to make the content from the excerpt show up in the actual message. It’s just saying [deleted].

Thank you in advancce!

I have a screenshot if it’s helpful but don’t think I can attach it here.
