Regarding my caveat above (that BP activities were not showing up in the BP news feed of a non-admin user), I have discovered that two other plugins I have been using are effecting the behavior here:
- BuddyBoss Wall: this is not breaking anything, but it does change what the activity stream looks like to the user. In particular, it adds a “news stream” view, similar to Facebook. So for anyone reading this later wondering what I meant by “news stream” above, that’s apparently a BuddyBoss Wall specific view.
- BuddyPress Activity Privacy: It was when I disabled this plugin that the non-admin user started seeing the activity updates in his news feed as I would have expected. And I’m not saying that this plugin was breaking anything necessarily—could easily have just been some configuration mixup on my part. But it was time for me to remove this plugin anyway because it was adding unnecessary complexity to my site.
So removing the Activity Privacy plugin resolved the caveat. Scenario 4 is now working for me just as I need it to.
