Deleted User Bug

[Lambros]

Just a suggestion.
I think this should be fixed.
I deleted a user and this appeared in the Activity page

Hi @louboulos, It’s not a Bug.

It is included intensely after several request of users
= 1.0.4 =
* Now displaying ‘Deleted User’ text in activity post if user deletes account

buddyboss_wall_replace_placeholders_with_url() contain that string

it will need to removed existing filter and add new function for buddyboss_wall_replace_placeholders_with_url()

Hi @louboulos

You can add following function to your child theme functions.php to remove it

function deleted_user_activity() {
  global $bp;
 remove_filter( 'bp_get_activity_action', 'buddyboss_wall_replace_placeholders_with_url', 11, 2 );
  add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_action', 'buddyboss_wall_replace_placeholders_with_url_modified', 11, 2 );
			
}
add_action('bp_init', 'deleted_user_activity');

function buddyboss_wall_replace_placeholders_with_url_modified( $action, $activity ){

	if( 1==1 ){
		$initiator_id = bp_activity_get_meta($activity->id, 'buddyboss_wall_initiator', true);
		$target_id = bp_activity_get_meta($activity->id, 'buddyboss_wall_target', true);

		// replace %INITIATOR% with userlink/You
		if( is_user_logged_in() && bp_loggedin_user_id()==$initiator_id ){
			$action = str_replace( '%INITIATOR%', __( 'You', 'buddyboss-wall' ), $action);
		}
		else{
			$initiator_name = bp_core_get_user_displayname( $initiator_id );
			/*
			 * a quick workaround to check if the user in question is still valid/account not deleted.
			 * Although, activity entries posted by a, now deleted user, dont show up on activity stream.
			 * Just to be on safe side.
			 */
			if( $initiator_name ){
				$initiator_profile_link = '<a href="'. esc_url( bp_core_get_user_domain( $initiator_id ) ) .'" title="' . esc_attr( $initiator_name ) . '">'. $initiator_name .'</a>';
			}
			else{
			//	$initiator_profile_link = __( '', 'buddyboss-wall' );
			}

			$action = str_replace( '%INITIATOR%', $initiator_profile_link, $action);
		}

		// replace %TARGET% with userlink/your
		if( is_user_logged_in() && bp_loggedin_user_id()==$target_id ){
			$action = str_replace( '%TARGET%', __( 'your', 'buddyboss-wall' ), $action);
		}
		else{
			$target_name = bp_core_get_user_displayname( $target_id );
			/*
			 * a quick workaround to check if the user in question is still valid/account not deleted
			 */
			if( $target_name ){
				if ( substr( $target_name, -1 ) === 's' ){
					$target_possesive_fullname = sprintf( __( "%s'", 'buddyboss-wall' ), $target_name );
				}
				else {
					$target_possesive_fullname = sprintf( __( "%s's", 'buddyboss-wall' ), $target_name );
				}

				$target_profile_link = '<a href="'. esc_url( bp_core_get_user_domain( $target_id ) ) .'" title="' . esc_attr( $target_name ) . '">'. $target_possesive_fullname .'</a>';
			}
			else{
				$target_profile_link = __( "", "buddyboss-wall" );
			}
			$action = str_replace( '%TARGET%', $target_profile_link, $action);
		}
	}

	return $action;
}
