Hello,
i hope someone can help me because i am driving myself crazy at this point. im fairly new to wordpress and thought that i would give it a shot to try and have the themes custom post “video” show up in the activity stream as well as merge their comments. finding this link in the codex, https://codex.buddypress.org/plugindev/post-types-activities/

i managed to have this in my bp-custom.php

 function customize_page_tracking_args() {
 
    if ( ! bp_is_active( 'activity' ) ) {
        return;
    }
 
    add_post_type_support( 'video', 'buddypress-activity' );
 
   
    bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args( 'video', array(
        'action_id'                         => 'new_video',
        'bp_activity_admin_filter'          => __( 'Published a new video', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_front_filter'          => __( 'Video', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_post'              => __( '%1$s posted a new <a href="%2$s">video</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_post_ms'           => __( '%1$s posted a new <a href="%2$s">video</a>, on the site %3$s', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'contexts'                          => array( 'activity', 'member' ),
        'comment_action_id'                 => 'new_video_comment',
        'bp_activity_comments_admin_filter' => __( 'Commented a video', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_comments_front_filter' => __( 'Video Comments', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_comment'           => __( '%1$s commented on the <a href="%2$s">video</a>', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'bp_activity_new_comment_ms'        => __( '%1$s commented on the <a href="%2$s">video</a>, on the site %3$s', 'custom-textdomain' ),
        'position'                          => 100,
    ) );
    
}
add_action( 'bp_init', 'customize_page_tracking_args' );

now only some of the activity shows up as there is no thumbnail image or a comment button. i might have misunderstood but i thought this would be all i needed. also i have alread enabled site tracking, indexing and allowed comments everywhere.

here is the themes cpt registration where var $post_type = ‘video’;:

	function register() {
		    
		  
			register_post_type( $this->post_type, array(
				'labels' => array(
					'name' => __('Videos', 'themify'),
					'singular_name' => __('Video', 'themify'),
					'add_new' => __( 'Add New', 'themify' ),

					'view_item' => __( 'View Video', 'themify' ),
					'search_items' => __( 'Search Videos', 'themify' ),
					'not_found' => __( 'No Videos found', 'themify' ),
					'not_found_in_trash' => __( 'No Videos found in Trash', 'themify' ),
					'menu_name' => __( 'Videos', 'themify' ),
				),
				'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'custom-fields', 'excerpt', 'comments'),
				'hierarchical' => false,

"taxonomies"=>array("category"),
			));
			register_taxonomy( $this->tax, array( $this->post_type ), array(
				'labels' => array(
					'name' => __( 'Video Categories', 'themify' ),
					'singular_name' => __( 'Video Categories', 'themify' ),
				),
				'public' => true,

				'show_ui' => true,
				'show_tagcloud' => true,
				'hierarchical' => true,
				'rewrite' => true,
				'query_var' => true,
			));
			register_taxonomy( $this->tag, array( $this->post_type ), array(
				'labels' => array(
					'name' => __( 'Video Tags', 'themify' ),
					'singular_name' => __( 'Video Tags', 'themify' ),
				),
				'public' => true,
				'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
				'show_ui' => true,
				'show_tagcloud' => true,
				'hierarchical' => false,
				'rewrite' => true,
				'query_var' => true,
			));
			if ( is_admin() ) {
				add_filter('manage_edit-'.$this->tax.'_columns', array( $this, 'taxonomy_header' ), 10, 2);
				add_filter('manage_'.$this->tax.'_custom_column', array( $this, 'taxonomy_column_id' ), 10, 3);

				add_filter('manage_edit-'.$this->tag.'_columns', array( $this, 'taxonomy_header' ), 10, 2);
				add_filter('manage_'.$this->tag.'_custom_column', array( $this, 'taxonomy_column_id' ), 10, 3);
			}
		}
