Filtering tabs names causes counter to disappear

[modemlooper]

The numbers next to tabs like messages and friends disappears when you filter the names with

$bp->bp_nav['messages']['name']

]

What value are you assigning to this?

[modemlooper]

$bp->bp_nav['messages']['name'] = 'new_name' ;'

[DJPaul]

I believe you will need to add the message count to this string (for example) when you set it. BP doesn't process a %s placeholder and replace it after the fact.

modemlooper, did you try this with %s?

EDIT:

This works, but you have to specify the arg. if you just put the specifier it out puts %s. So options are to add a count key to item array for nav items creation or create a new function that is a catch all for tab counts. It's a trivial though.

$bp->bp_nav['messages']['name'] = sprintf( 'New name <span>%s</span>' , bp_get_total_unread_messages_count() ) ;

closing this, it's not that important and as I pointed out in code above a work around .
