    Thank you Tosin.

    I am glad the code worked.

    1. Yes, It is still possible to send the message. We have only removed the button.

    I don’t see any way to completely restrict from receiving. If we use filter ‘bp_activity_do_mentions’ it will disable for all users.

    We can use it for disabling mention for the sender though(It won’t send notifications etc, but the user can manually mention and it will appear in the mention stream).

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Tosin,
    I haven’t been able to use the Message UX plugin yet. I will need a few more days before looking into it.

    Thank you

    Hello Tosin,

    Please check the following code. remove the older code and let me know if it works or not.

    

function buddydev_is_user_restricted( $user_id ) {
	// These user's won't be able to send the message.
	$restricted_user_ids = array( 2, 4766812, 4766806, 4766824, 4766786, 4766838 );

	return in_array( $user_id, $restricted_user_ids );
}

function buddydev_start_buffering() {

	if ( ! function_exists( 'bp_profile_messages_ux_init_pro' ) || ! buddydev_is_user_restricted( bp_displayed_user_id() ) ) {
		return;
	}

	ob_start();
}
add_action( 'bp_member_header_actions', 'buddydev_start_buffering', 19 );

function buddydev_end_buffering() {

	if ( ! function_exists( 'bp_profile_messages_ux_init_pro' ) || ! buddydev_is_user_restricted( bp_displayed_user_id() ) ) {
		return;
	}

	ob_get_clean();
}
add_action( 'bp_member_header_actions', 'buddydev_end_buffering', 21 );

    This will work in legacy.

    Regards
    Ravi
