Using notifications API to add custom notifications

gistfile1.phtml

/*

This code sample shows you how to use the API to create
and add custom notifications (for real-time notifications)
plugin.

STEP 1: You need to extend the filter: um_notifications_core_log_types with your
new notification type as follows for example

*/

add_filter('um_notifications_core_log_types', 'add_custom_notification_type', 200 );
function add_custom_notification_type( $array ) {
		
	$array['new_action'] = array(
		'title' => 'When something happens', // title for reference in backend settings
		'template' => '<strong>{member}</strong> has just did some action.', // the template, {member} is a tag, this is how the notification will appear in your notifications
		'account_desc' => 'When member does some action on my profile', // title for account page (notification settings)
	);
		
	return $array;
}

/*

STEP 2: Add an icon and color to this new notification type

*/

add_filter('um_notifications_get_icon', 'add_custom_notification_icon', 10, 2 );
function add_custom_notification_icon( $output, $type ) {
	
	if ( $type == 'new_action' ) { // note that our new action id is "new_action" from previous filter
		$output = '<i class="um-icon-android-person-add" style="color: #336699"></i>';
	}
	
	return $output;
}

/*

STEP 3: Now you just need to add the notification trigger when a user does some action on
another user profile, I assume you can trigger that in some action hooks
for example when user view another user profile you can hook like this

basically you need to run this in code

$who_will_get_notification : is user ID who will get notification
'new_action' is our new notification type
$vars is array containing the required template tags, user photo and url when that notification is clicked

$um_notifications->api->store_notification( $who_will_get_notification, 'new_action', $vars );

*/

add_action('um_before_profile_fields', 'trigger_new_notification', 100);
function trigger_new_notification( $args ) {
	global $um_notifications;
		
	if ( is_user_logged_in() && get_current_user_id() != um_profile_id() ) {
			
		um_fetch_user( get_current_user_id() );
			
		$vars['photo'] = um_get_avatar_url( get_avatar( get_current_user_id(), 40 ) );
		$vars['member'] = um_user('display_name');
		$vars['notification_uri'] = um_user_profile_url();

		$um_notifications->api->store_notification( um_profile_id(), 'new_action', $vars );
		
	}

}

Do you have anything to trigger email reminders for missed notifications?
