Reviews
really loved but not performing properly now
By KennyWilliamson on April 14, 2025
I really loved this plugin, but certain things dont appear to work any longer.
When you want to show limited words of activity, it now does that but the link to the activity and image is gone. Big pity, as you have to show unlimited words of content to get link back, which now takes whole of sidebar for one post.
Big pity , as the activity stream down sidebar attracted a lot of attention.
Works as expected

This is a really great plugin, though @ function in original bpactivity form doesn't work. Is this going to be included in a later version?
