#7640 closed enhancement (fixed)

Improve parameters of private and public message buttons, in order to improve flexibility and consistency

Description

The first couple of function involved are bp_get_send_public_message_button() and bp_get_send_message_button(). They do basically the same job in different contexts, however the first function accepts an array of parameters, but the second doesn't. This is the problem about consistency.

About flexibility there is the fact that the functions use bp_get_send_public_message_link() and bp_get_send_private_message_link() to generate the links. The problem is that those functions work only on members page and they don't accept any parameter. It would be nice if they can receive an user ID, so that they can be used also in other places, such as the members loop.

Thanks for the good patch, @antonioeatgoat. I've committed part, but at this time have decided not to add the user ID to those functions you identified that only work with a members template loop. This sort of request (albeit it in different areas) keeps occurring, so I've created a new ticket to discuss if this is something the project should do or not. Please see #7652
