Done. Trac ticket is here

Yes @henrywright, the settings are correct.

Steps to repeoduce:

1. Install vanilla WordPress 4.4
2. Install vanilla BuddyPress 2.4.3
3. Use default theme
4. Post a status update
5. Create a new user
6. Log in as new user
7. Comment on status

Just to be clear, I’m talking about notifications in WordPress toolbar. Have not checked if email notifications work since I’m on localhost.

That is wierd. It says here that this is core functionaliity: buddypress.org/about/notifications/

By default, notifications are created as soon as one of the following things happen:

Activity
• A member mentions you in an update @username”
• A member replies to an update or comment you’ve posted
• …

I have tried vanilla WP, BP and Twentyfifteen. What am I missing?

[@fried_eggz Participant 10 years, 10 months ago]

Thanks for the reply.

I have created cpt’s because I want to add custom activity types that have different fields and meta data.

Here is what I’m actually doing (the book was just an example):

I am creating a community where users can

• Post status updates
• Ask questions
• Post tips

I have registered questions and tips as ‘buddypress-activity’ so that they show up in the activity stream, for example

Adam posted an update 2 mins ago
Sebastian asked a question 6 mins ago
Shanebp posted a tip 10 mins ago
Adam posted an update 14 mins ago

The normal, built in, status updates links work fine but the custom ones link to

http://buddypress.dev/tips/name-of-the-tip/

instead of

http://buddypress.dev/members/membername/activity/544/

thus using the single.php template instead of the activity template that I want to use.
