Reply To: Why BuddyPress activity stream No sharing?

@lo133 – So – you want to find something within your own buddypress site – and click to share this on your “friend’s activity / all” ? – I THINK your friends can see activity of their friends with a simple click (eg – /members/admin/activity/friends/ ) – so anything you have shared on your profile would display in that feed..

Or (and?) – you want to be on another web site and share something from some other place onto your own activity wall? (I think that is easiest done with wpmudev’s activity plus plugin)

There IS an option to kind of send something to your friend’s “wall” – on their profile if you click “public message” then it opens a box and adds @myFriendsName… which kind of does what you may be asking about.

I would imagine there would be a cool modification to the WP “press this” button code – where a person may be able to highlightsomething and include a list of friends to @MyFriendsName them – however I think it could get bloated if you have a lot of friends…

I myself think it better to just post an activity update and if your friends want to see it then can click to see friend’s activity – or you could make that display the default display when people log in … and if you needed to get a site notification to someone – say post a picture of a sunset – it shows in your activity, and your friend’s would see it on friend’s activity – and if that sunset reminded you of someone particular, you would @MyFriend Mention them – and they MAY get a notification sent to them.

Still not exactly sure what content you are wanting to share with friends, and where you think that should show up.

It may be that you want to customize how activity is displayed to logged in users and solve what you are going for. Not sure really.
