Is anyone interested in writing a how-to post for the main BuddyPress.org blog on this subject? It would be nice to hear it from someone who has discovered this setting.
I’m spending a lot of my time working on something right now that will somewhat form the base of 1.2. It’s all behind the scenes at the moment, so I’m not showing a lot of public activity.
I’m going to go on a bug fixing run sometime next week and that will result in 1.1.3. There may or may not be a 1.1.4 before 1.2, but I’m not sure yet. JJJ is doing a good job with bug fixing so far, once the new stuff I’m working on is in trunk, we’ll sync up and formulate a plan for 1.2.
All of the content that is output with bp_activity_content() is stored in the database. This is mostly for performance reasons. If this data had to be recreated on each page load, you’d be looking at hundreds and hundreds of queries.
You can modify it with a filter though, but you’re limited to string replacement and css modifications:
function my_function( $content ) {
return $content; // do something with the content first
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_content', 'my_function' );
You can put this in your own plugin, or in bp-custom.php.
