Hi Jim,
marking it resolved as per our emails.
for others looking at it, The issue was dues to use of older version of the plugin. It was resolved in 1.9.0, I suggested to update which fixed the issue.

Hi Nik,
Thank you.
There was no issue with your questions. No need to apologise for it.

I am going to look at your new topic for the same now.

Brajesh

Hi Nik,
Thank you.
I will be working on the next release and will push it by this Friday. I can take all of your issues but due to a large thread I have almost lost the track.

Can you please create 2 topics( 1 for BuddyBlog Pro and one for BuddyBlog Groups) and specify the following:-
1. Your goals with it.
2. features/fixes needed to achieve those goals
3. custom code being used
4. anything else that you consider important. If you can put it by day tomrrow(Thursday), I will push the updates on Friday.

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi Nik,
Thank you for the feedback.

My changes are limited to Group Blog and have no affect on how BuddyBlog Pro works.
I haven’t updated BuddyBlog and the last changes were limited to Group posts only.

1. Admin notifications.
Sorry the line should have been this

if ( get_current_user_id() == $post->post_author && is_super_admin() ) {
			return;
		}

not

		if ( get_current_user_id() == $post->post_author ) {
			return;
		}

An update will be available today for this.

2. Group admins still receive the author notification:- That is correct. We do’t have UI to disable and I can’t disable it for specific use case as there is a possibility group admins might not have the ability to publish for some of the setup.
I put a filter there yesterday ‘bblpro_groups_post_submission_notify_author’

You can use it like.

// disables author notification for group admin.
add_filter( 'bblpro_groups_post_submission_notify_author', function ( $notify, $author, $post, $group_id, $form_id ) {
	if ( groups_is_user_admin( $author->ID, $group_id ) ) {
		$notify = false;
	}

	return $notify;
}, 10, 5 );

3. Can you please help me understand this

 Those posting in group with admin or editor permissions are handled in the same way as “regular” group members (ie. non group admins)

Should we treat them differently?
I am not using roles as I the purpose of BuddyBlog pro/Group blog is for community posts and not editorial content of the site.

Hi Nik,
Thank you for the reply.
Please upgrade to 1.0.0-rc7.

This update will disable self notification to group admin/site admin for post approval, rejection, submission.

If in a group, there are 4 group admins and one of them submits the post, the other 3 will still get a submission notification.

Do you want to disable that too?

PS:- The code from Ravi is no longer needed for site admin/group admin notification prevention.
