Ok so here is my code for adding an activity feed on the submission of a form i have. NOthing happens what so ever on the form submission. Can anyone help?

Im using wordpress 3.5 and buddpress version 1.6.2

`
$project_link = ‘http://www.example.com/member/’.$user_name.’/portfolio/view/?project=’.$project_id.”;

$params = array(
‘action’ => ‘new-project’,
‘content’ => ‘here is a new activity’,
‘primary_link’ => $project_link,
‘component’ => ‘my_component’,
‘type’ => ‘my_type’,
‘user_id’ => $bp->loggedin_user->id,
‘item_id’ => $bp->displayed_user->id
);
do_action( ‘bp_activity_add’, $params );`

Does the new item get added to the DB?

actually it shows up on the sitewide activity but not on the personal one. things wrong with it though is that there is no avatar, @username link and the $project_link doesnt show either

This is adding to the database and the site wide activity but not to the personal activity feed

`$project_link = ‘http://www.examplc.co.uk/member/’.$user_name.’/portfolio/view/?project=’.$project_id.”;
$action = ‘@’.$user_name.’ has just added a new project ‘;
$activity_content = ‘‘.$album_title.’‘;

bp_activity_add ( array(
‘action’ => $action,
‘content’ => $activity_content,
‘primary_link’ => $project_link,
‘component’ => ‘activity’,
‘type’ => ‘activity_update’,
‘user_id’ => $bp->loggedin_user->id,
‘item_id’ => $bp->displayed_user->id
)
);`

Fixed it. My own stupid fault for not including `global $bp;`.
sorry for wasting your time.
