I have tried vanilla WP, BP and Twentyfifteen. What am I missing?
I don’t think there is a core functionality to accomplish this. I’ve been using this plugin to serve up those notifications with good results:
BuddyPress Activity Comment Notifier
That is wierd. It says here that this is core functionaliity: buddypress.org/about/notifications/
By default, notifications are created as soon as one of the following things happen:
Activity
- A member mentions you in an update @username”
- A member replies to an update or comment you’ve posted
- …
This should be working. Have you installed any plugins that may be conflicting?
Make sure you have the setting checked under members/{username}/settings/notifications/
Yes @henrywright, the settings are correct.
Steps to repeoduce:
- Install vanilla WordPress 4.4
- Install vanilla BuddyPress 2.4.3
- Use default theme
- Post a status update
- Create a new user
- Log in as new user
- Comment on status
Just to be clear, I’m talking about notifications in WordPress toolbar. Have not checked if email notifications work since I’m on localhost.
In that case @fried_eggz, can you open a ticket for this on Trac?
