    External RSS Feeds for Groups pulls in information from those blog’s feed urls.

    This is extremely useful, but adds to the email load by sending an email for every feed posted on the activity stream, even though an email for that post has been sent already. I’m getting 20+ emails every few days following a single TED feed.

    Is there a way of turning these emails off (specifically) without changing the email subscription for the group?

    Good call, Eugene.

    This can be accomplished with a code snippet.

    Try this code snippet:
    http://pastebin.com/Ziyy8xML

    If you don’t have a file called /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php, please create it:
    http://codex.buddypress.org/developer/customizing/bp-custom-php/#so-what-is-it

    Then, paste in the code snippet above and see if that solves your problem.

    @cbox_admin, what do you think about putting an option on the CBOX Settings admin page to block External RSS feeds from being recorded by the Group Email Subscription plugin?

    Hi @r-a-y

    I moved to a new server and am now getting the following error.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter – headers already sent (output started at /home/myschool/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:5) in/home/myschool/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wpmu-dev-facebook/lib/external/facebook.php on line 49

    Hi there

    Please could I have feedback on this issue.

    I have set the theme to the default theme and deactivated all plugins (including network activated plugins) but am still getting header errors.

    Hi MySchoolStuff,

    I’m guessing that your /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php file has some trailing whitespace.

    Your bp-custom.php file should have no spaces or tabs at the beginning of the file.

    Make sure the first characters on the first line in that file are <?php

    Thanks Ray, I think that did the trick

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.

The Commons In A Box was made possible through the generous support of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

The CUNY Graduate Center has directly contributed to the CUNY Academic Commons, housing the project since its inception, and has contributed to CBOX through its GC Digital Initiatives.
