@jasonbrodbeckcom,

have a look at http://buddydev.com/buddypress/facebook-style-activity-commenting-with-buddypress/

I just learned how to do that. in the Global.js located (/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc) you will see Global,js.. open it up with a text editor ( I use notepad++ ) go to line 1200 and you will see
`if ( jq(this).children(‘ul’).children(‘li’).length < 5 ) return;` Replace the 5 with what ever number you want it to hide when it reaches that limit.

Now on line 1212 you will see
`if ( i < comment_lis.length – 5 ) {`
Once again change the 5 with what ever number you want it to hide when it reaches that limit,
Let me know if it works @mary Jane

I do have a script for that. But the javascript does effect the BP notifications… that’s the only problem. I’ll be more then happy to send you the script. @jasonbrodbeckcom, I don’t use it for that reason but let me see if I can find it again.

Yey, I found it this requires editing the activity/entry.php in your theme.

right after the following code:
`

`
Put in:
`

$(document).ready(function(){

$(“li#activity- div.activity-comments ul”).hide();

$(“li#activity- a.acomment-reply”).click(function(){
if ( $(“p.collapse-“).css(“display”) == ‘none’ ){

$(“p.expand-, p.collapse-, li#activity- div.activity-comments ul”).toggle(100);

}
return true;
});

$(“p.expand- a”).click(function(){

$(“p.expand-, p.collapse-, li#activity- div.activity-comments ul”).toggle(100);
return false;

});

$(“p.collapse- a”).click(function(){

$(“p.expand-, p.collapse-, li#activity- div.activity-comments ul”).toggle(100);
return false;

});

$(“li#activity- input[name=ac_form_submit]”).click(function(){

if ( $(“p.collapse-“).css(“display”) == ‘none’ ){

$(“p.expand-, p.collapse-, li#activity- div.activity-comments ul”).toggle(100);

}
return true;
});

});

Hi @yadigit,

Thanks for the solution! I have a question maybe you can help me with:
When “loading more” activity stream, hiding comments doesn’t work i.e. all comments for activity updates appear which is not lovely!
Why is that happening? How to fix this?

Thank a lot
Hope

@amalsh I’ve never really had a problem with it. Yet again the code listed above was ment for an older version on bp and WP.. It sounds like a conflicting Java or Ajax that could cause the problem. Now the question is, does it do it to every single one or just the ones loaded afew clicking load more.. If its just happening to the ones that is loaded after clicking load more I would follow the code from where the button is and find out how the code is getting loaded.. If I recall it just loops the entry.php file.. I haven’t played with bp for a while but I’ll love to help. Best thing to do is to follow the load more code and find out what its doing.. I’m pretty sure it deals with Java or Ajax.. Probably Ajax (I don’t have the files to look at them).. If the button is powered by Ajax try turning it into a regular html like but don’t have it reload the page..

after saying all that I just remembered that you don’t have to use the code at all.. I believe it has it built into it already… Inside golbal.js there is a code tords the button where it will hide the comments if they exceed more then 5.. Your best bet is to find that code and change the 5 to a 2 or even a 0 if you like.. I’d search for it inside .js files before editing the .php files and doing what I said before. If you have any problems with it just let me know and I’ll pull up old files and locate it for you

This is the “load more” code in global.js that deals with the comments’ hiding:
`/* Hide excess comments */
if ( jq(‘div.activity-comments’).length )
bp_dtheme_hide_comments();`

The required code is already in the called function bp_dtheme_hide_comments(); It should work :S Is there something I’m not seeing 😐
