Followings module

[FuBendu]

Hi there

1. Is there documentation on the followings module?

2. How can a following be created programmatically?

3. How can I call the follow/followers section featured in shop page?

4. How can I programmatically get the number of followers of a vendor?

5. Is there a way to control emails? When and how?

For example, I want to automatically make users become followers of vendors when they purchase.

Many thanks

Hi,

1. Is there documentation on the followings module?
– Sorry, No it’s very straight forward

2. How can a following be created programmatically?
–

3. How can I call the follow/followers section featured in shop page?

4. How can I programmatically get the number of followers of a vendor?

– Use this to get vendor’s followers list –

get_user_meta( $vendor_id, '_wcfm_followers_list', true );

5. Is there a way to control emails? When and how?

For example, I want to automatically make users become followers of vendors when they purchase.

– Please check this function how following/followers are updated. Hope this will helpful your purpose –

function wcfmu_vendors_followers_update() {
		global $WCFM, $WCFMu, $wpdb, $_POST;
		
		$user_id   = absint( $_POST['user_id'] );
		$vendor_id = absint( $_POST['vendor_id'] );
		$count     = absint( $_POST['count'] );
				      
		if( $user_id && $vendor_id ) {
			$user_data   = get_userdata( $user_id );
			$vendor_data = get_userdata( $vendor_id );
			
			// Update Vendor Followers List
			$followers_arr = get_user_meta( $vendor_id, '_wcfm_followers_list', true );
			if( $followers_arr && is_array( $followers_arr ) ) {
				$followers_arr[] = $user_id;
			} else {
				$followers_arr = array($user_id);
			}
			update_user_meta( $vendor_id, '_wcfm_followers_list', $followers_arr );
			
			// Update User Following List
			$user_following_arr = get_user_meta( $user_id, '_wcfm_following_list', true );
			if( $user_following_arr && is_array( $user_following_arr ) ) {
				$user_following_arr[] = $vendor_id;
			} else {
				$user_following_arr = array( $vendor_id );
			}
			update_user_meta( $user_id, '_wcfm_following_list', $user_following_arr );
			
			// Update WCfM Followers Table
			$wcfm_add_follower    = "INSERT into {$wpdb->prefix}wcfm_following_followers 
																( <code>user_id</code>, <code>user_name</code>, <code>user_email</code>, <code>follower_id</code>, <code>follower_name</code>, <code>follower_email</code>, <code>notify</code> )
																VALUES
																( {$vendor_id}, '{$vendor_data->display_name}', '{$vendor_data->user_email}', {$user_id}, '{$user_data->display_name}', '{$user_data->user_email}', 1 )";
			$wpdb->query($wcfm_add_follower);
			
			// Direct message
			$wcfm_messages = __( 'Congrats! Recently you got a new follower.', 'wc-frontend-manager-ultimate' );
			$WCFM->wcfm_notification->wcfm_send_direct_message( -1, $vendor_id, 1, 0, $wcfm_messages, 'new_follower' );
		}
		echo "done";
		die;
	}

Thank You

Done thanks – Happy to share the working code.

Now,

1 – I need to disable all emails that come out of the followings module. Any handy filter?

2 – I need to disable (remove) below action but cannot get it to work. Any help pls.
line 121 from plugins/wc-frontend-manager-ultimate/core/class-wcfmu-vendor-followers.php
add_action( ‘wcv_after_main_header’, array( &$this, ‘after_wcv_store_header’ ), 16 );

Thanks

Hi,

1. Please add this –

add_filter( 'wcfm_is_allow_followings_email', '__return_false' );

2. Just hide using this CSS –

#wcfm_followers { display: none; }

Thank You

Hi,

From where you want to hide email? Customer’s following list or vendor’s followers list!

Thank You

[FuBendu]

I want followers to stop receiving emails each time the vendor adds a new product.
Thank you

OK, then I was totally misunderstood your requirement.

Please use this code for the purpose –

add_filter( 'wcfm_is_allow_followers_new_product_notification', '__return_false' );

Thank You
