I am using the WP Subscribe Author plugin which does the job. I did some tweaking to the email that is sent in the PHP file as the default email didn’t include a link to the post.
As far as display goes, the admin code does this in several ways. Via the ‘message’ class for stuff that shows once at the top of the content area. On the left nav menu, either on the Plugins tab or up where it says Dashboard. And in the list of themes (or plugins). Items 2 … Read more
I don’t see this as excessively heavy. Just use is_user_logged_in() and current_user_can(). Obviously if user isn’t logged in then you can skip checking for any roles. I am not sure, but user data is probably held in memory so there will be no extra database calls and such.
I have used the plugin Comment Notifier. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/comments-notifier/ And it works adequately.
The comment_notification_text filter is in wp-includes/pluggable.php in the wp_notify_postauthor function. You can copy and paste the $notify_message stuff and edit out what you don’t want. function wpd_comment_notification_text( $notify_message, $comment_id ){ // get the current comment and post data $comment = get_comment( $comment_id ); $post = get_post( $comment->comment_post_ID ); // don’t modify trackbacks or pingbacks if( … Read more
You can register TheDeadMedic’s function to fire on the save_post action, which runs every time a post is saved, regardless of whether or not the status changed. add_action( ‘save_post’, ‘__notify_admin_on_publish’, 10, 3 ); Then, comment out these lines in his function: //if ( $new_status != ‘publish’ || $old_status == ‘publish’ ) //return; To prevent getting … Read more
Looking at the sources (core files, wp-includes/option.php) you can always find your target hook tags: add_action(‘added_option’, ‘wpse230212_callback_add’, 10, 2); add_action(‘updated_option’, ‘wpse230212_callback_update’, 10, 3); function wpse230212_callback_add( $option_name, $option_value ) { // do stuff on add_option } function wpse230212_callback_update( $option_name, $old_value, $option_value ) { // do stuff on update_option } Hope that helps.
To disable pingback and trackbacks, add this code to your functions.php file in your child theme: add_action( ‘pre_ping’, ‘wpse_190346_internal_pingbacks’ ); add_filter( ‘wp_headers’, ‘wpse_190346_x_pingback’); add_filter( ‘bloginfo_url’, ‘wpse_190346_pingback_url’) ; add_filter( ‘bloginfo’, ‘wpse_190346_pingback_url’) ; add_filter( ‘xmlrpc_enabled’, ‘__return_false’ ); add_filter( ‘xmlrpc_methods’, ‘wpse_190346_xmlrpc_methods’ ); function wpse_190346_internal_pingbacks( &$links ) { // Disable internal pingbacks foreach ( $links as $l => $link … Read more
I skimmed through the source of the wp_notify_postauthor() function and noticed the comment_notification_recipients filter. I wonder if you could simplify your plugin to the following code snippet: <?php /** * Plugin Name: Disable comment/trackback/pingback notifications emails * Plugin URI: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/150141/26350 */ add_filter( ‘comment_notification_recipients’, ‘__return_empty_array’, PHP_INT_MAX ); add_filter( ‘comment_moderation_recipients’, ‘__return_empty_array’, PHP_INT_MAX ); where we use an … Read more
OK, so it has nothing to do with WP_List_Table, to be precise. All you need to do is to add some additional info during registration of your custom admin page. There are two classes used by WordPress to display these notification bubbles: update-plugins awaiting-mod Your notifications have nothing to do with plugins, so it will … Read more
