Like notifications don't mark read

[Christina]

The new notifications for likes are great. But they don’t get marked as read when you click on the notification in the list at top of the site. We are using the Boss theme. Can you add the function so these notifications get marked read once you’ve clicked to view the activity it goes with?

Is there a way to just disable the onsite notifications of likes?

I figured out how to stop the like notifications. Here is what worked for me:

function ls_remove_likes_notification() {
  $notification_handler = BuddyBoss_Wall_Like_Notification::get_instance();
  remove_action( 'bp_activity_add_user_favorite', array( $notification_handler, 'add_like_notification' ), 10 );
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'ls_remove_likes_notification', 20 );

Hi @pallavi,

I also really like the like notifications, however, my site is also creating a duplicate notification that says “member favorited your post” (see screenshot). Do you know how I can remove the duplicate notification circled in yellow?

Hi @secondfirsts,

Your function works great, would you happen to also know how I can stop the duplicate notification circled in yellow in the attached screenshot? Or, what about how to rename “favorited” to liked? If I can rename it I could simply use your function to disable BuddyBoss Wall’s notifications.

Thanks!

@markob17 you must have another plugin that is creating those. Do you have http://buddydev.com/plugins/buddypress-activity-comment-notifier/ installed perhaps?

Hi @markob17, Seems you have any additional notification plugin added for comments. Please check your activate plugin once and try to debug it by deactivating it.

@secondfirsts Christina, you are right! I totally forgot I just recently started using that plugin.

@vapvarun Varun, thanks for the info, @secondfirsts was correct in that I am using the activity comment notifier plugin which I recently downloaded from the WordPress repository.

Thanks!
