 * Hello. I’m putting together a lightweight analytics plugin and hope to integrate
   with domain mapping.
 * Overall, my goal is to update the analytics platform with the new url automatically
   when a new primary is set it domain mapping.
 * I’m trying to use the ‘dm_handle_action_primary’ hook, but it doesn’t seem to
   be firing at all, even when adding a new primary domain. As a work around, I’ve
   tried ‘dm_handle_action_add’. That’s firing correctly, however my attempt to 
   retrieve the primary domain from the database at that time is retrieving the 
   domain which is being replaced as the primary, so it seems to be firing before
   that gets written to the database.
 * Here’s the relevant code:
 *     ```
       function piwik_inline_update_blog($domain)
       {
         //get the primary domain
         global $wpdb;
         $domain = $wpdb-> get_results( "SELECT * FROM {$wpdb->base_prefix}domain_mapping WHERE blog_id = '".get_current_blog_id()."' and active=1");
   
          echo $domain; // outputs the domain being replaced; new is not yet saved to database.
       }
       add_action('dm_handle_actions_primary', 'piwik_inline_update_blog'); // function is never called through this hook
   
       add_action('dm_handle_actions_add', 'piwik_inline_update_blog');
       ```
   
 * Do you have any advice on how to better approach this? Any help or advice at 
   all would be greatly appreciated!

 * Hello. I established that the problem only exists when it is a new domain alias
   being added with the ‘primary’ checkbox selected.
 * I tried submitting a patch but don’t seem to know what I am doing. Let me know
   how best to relay this information.
 * adding a call to do_action on line 356 of domain_mapping.php fixes this.
 *     ```
       case "add":
               		        do_action('dm_handle_actions_add', $domain);
       				if( null == $wpdb->get_row( "SELECT blog_id FROM {$wpdb->blogs} WHERE domain = '$domain'" ) && null == $wpdb->get_row( "SELECT blog_id FROM {$wpdb->dmtable} WHERE domain = '$domain'" ) ) {
                                               if ( $_POST[ 'primary' ] ) {
                                                 $wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( "UPDATE {$wpdb->dmtable} SET active = 0 WHERE blog_id = %d", $wpdb->blogid ) );
                                                 do_action('dm_handle_actions_primary', $domain);
                                               }
                                               $wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( "INSERT INTO {$wpdb->dmtable} ( <code>id</code> , <code>blog_id</code> , <code>domain</code> , <code>active</code> ) VALUES ( NULL, %d, %s, %d )", $wpdb->blogid, $domain, $_POST[ 'primary' ] ) );
       ```
