You are most welcome!

Thank you for the appreciation Gregg.

I am glad I was able to help 🙂

Hi Gregg,
Thank you for the kind words and joining our premium membership.

Here is the code that you can put in your bp-custom.php to skip the group

/**
 * Skip a group from the group notifications.
 *
 * @param bool $skip true to skip notification.
 * @param BP_Activity_Activity $activity current activity instance.
 *
 * @return bool true to skip.
 */
function buddydev_skip_group_from_notification( $skip, $activity ) {

	$group_id = $activity->item_id;
	//change the group id
	if ( $group_id == 3 ) { //Please change '3' with your group id
		$skip = true; //skip
	}

	return $skip;
}
add_filter( 'bp_local_group_notifier_skip_notification', 'buddydev_skip_group_from_notification', 10, 2 );

Please change the group id with yours.

Let me know if it works for you or not?

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi Tosin,
about your last question.

It is difficult to disable based on the member types as the member type is registered too late.

Ravi & I looked at it and we found that we can disable the component conditionally but not using member type as context./ if using the user roles as context will work for you please let us know and we will post the code.

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi,
Please use the following code in bp-custom.php

/**
 * Disable add friends button fro admin users
 *
 * it is an example and not recommended. It can cause n extra queries due to capability checking on the members loop.
 *
 * @param $button
 *
 * @return mixed
 */
function buddydev_hide_admin_friends_button( $button ) {

	if( ! isset( $button['id'] ) || $button['id'] != 'not_friends' ) {
		return $button;
	}

	$user_id = absint( str_replace( 'friend-','', $button['link_id'] ) );
	if ( ! $user_id ) {
		return $button ;
	}

	//we can check using is_super_admin( $user_id ) || user_can( $user_id, 'cap' )

	if ( user_can( $user_id, 'manage_options' ) ) {
		$button['id'] = false;
	}

	return $button;
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_add_friend_button', 'buddydev_hide_admin_friends_button' );

Please do note that it will cause n extra queries on the members loop.

Regards
Brajesh
