    Hi there,

    Thanks for the awesome plugin, Is there a way to make the notifications rules like when someone is posting a new topic an email is sent not to the whole users with configured role to receive notifications but limit that to another condition like they have specific value for a user field? “For example when user with country Germany is posting a new topic only users with the same country value to receive the email notification”

    Is that achievable by some customization? So before sending the email adding a condition to check value of the topic creator and the recipients

    Thanks

    I tried to add the below in the foreach loop in the function get_recipients but no luck

    
if ( 'topic' === $type ) 
{
	$ID = $user->ID;
	$author_id = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id );
	$city_user = xprofile_get_field_data(‘City’, $author_id);
	$city_author = xprofile_get_field_data(‘City’, $ID);
					
	if ( $city_user === $city_author )
	{
		$recipients[$user->ID] = $user; // make sure unique recipients
	}
}
else
{
        $recipients[$user->ID] = $user; // make sure unique recipients
}

    any ideas please?

    Hi aboood343,

    Sorry for the delay. I didn’t get a few notifications of new messages – probably due to the forum update.

    The best thing you can do is to hook into a filter instead of modifying the plugin.

    The filters you want are: bbpress_topic_notify_recipients and bbpress_reply_notify_recipients.

    // For topics
$recipients = apply_filters( 'bbpress_topic_notify_recipients', $recipients, $topic_id, $forum_id );

    // For replies
$recipients = apply_filters( 'bbpress_reply_notify_recipients', $recipients, $reply_id, $topic_id, $forum_id );

    You’ll be able to override the whole recipients list that way.

    Cheers,
    Vinny
