Hook for a custom notification description/link

[finzend]

Hi,

I want to add a custom notification. So far everything has worked (added a new
setting & component_action, added a new email etc). But there's one thing I cant do. I cannot seem to add a custom description for the notifcation-screen.

I've added my notification under Activities, which uses the bp_activity_format_notifications callback. That callback seems to have no possibility for extension. I could hook into the bp_get_the_notification_description filter (bp_get_the_notification_description), but there's no ID used in the params, so I can't create a specific url.

A workaround would be to register/add a new component (with a custom callback) but that seems a bit overkill, as i want to add a custom notification under Activities.

I would suggest to add three extra parameters for the bp_get_the_notification_description filter:
$notification->component_action, $notification->item_id, $notification->secondary_item_id

Could that be implemented?

How about just passing the $notification object to the filter?

Yes, that would probably be even better;)

Pass the notification object to the 'bp_get_the_notification_description' filter.

Props finzend.
