Goal: check for user type ‘coach’ OR query variable ID (unlogged coach user) and show activity feed alert if validated user visits happen.

What I’ve done: I’ve added a user activity feed creation action to the end of the “bp_visitors_record_visit()” function. It adds an activity update telling the user their profile has been viewed and by whom but it is creating 2 activity instances and incrementing “visitors_get_profile_visit_count” x2 for each single visit. The “visitors_get_unique_visitors_count” works fine. I have the latest version installed.

Sidenote: I tried using the “visitors_profile_visited” action in my functions.php but the visitor_id was not passed in the function so it didn’t work.

At the start of the bp_visitors_record_visit() I have this:

if ( isset( $_GET['referrer_coach'] ) && is_numeric( $_GET['referrer_coach'] ) ) {
		$email_user = $_GET['referrer_coach']; // Smashing Digital //
	}

	if ( empty($email_user) ) { // Smashing Digital //
		// do not try to record if it is not a user profile or the user is not logged in or viewing self profile.
		if ( ! bp_is_user() || ! is_user_logged_in() || bp_is_my_profile() ) {
			return;
		}
	}

	if ( ! empty($email_user) && ! bp_is_user() ) {
		return;
	}

	// do not try to record if it is not a coach user profile 
	if ( is_user_logged_in() && ! bp_has_member_type( bp_loggedin_user_id(), 'coach' ) ) {
		return;
	}

	$visitor_id = empty($email_user) ? get_current_user_id() : $email_user; 
	// $visitor_id = get_current_user_id();

At the end of the bp_visitors_record_visit() I have this:

/**
	 
  do_action( 'visitors_profile_visited', $user_id, $visitor_id );
  
  // An array of arguments. 
  $coach_user_id = $visitor_id;
  $coach_name = xprofile_get_field_data( 1, $coach_user_id );
  $activity_action = 'Coach ' . $coach_name . ' viewed your profile! ';
  $activity_args = array(
    'action' => $activity_action, // The activity action - e.g. "Jon Doe posted an update" 
    'content' => '', // Optional: The content of the activity item e.g. "BuddyPress is awesome guys!" 
    'component' => 'visitors', // The name/ID of the component e.g. groups, profile, mycomponent. 
    'type' => 'coach_visit', // The activity type e.g. activity_update, profile_updated. 
    'user_id' => $user_id, // Optional: The user to record the activity for, can be false if this activity is not for a user. 
    'item_id' => false, // Optional: The ID of the specific item being recorded, e.g. a blog_id. 
    'secondary_item_id' => false, // Optional: A second ID used to further filter e.g. a comment_id. 
    'recorded_time' => bp_core_current_time(), // The GMT time that this activity was recorded. 
    'hide_sitewide' => true, // Should this be hidden on the sitewide activity stream? 
  );   
  $result = bp_activity_add( $activity_args );
