I am also facing this problem
You are referring to nested replies?
@DJPaul: yes, It appears to be a problem with the nested replies.
@shamus – Are you using a custom theme?
@r-a-y: I am using a custom theme but have the same problem with the default theme.
This is what it looks like after 12 replies to a group thread: http://haliohost.com/buddypress-nested.gif
Ahh, I understand what you’re talking about now!
It’s a known thing.
You could try decreasing the padding-right to zero in your stylesheet so you can fit more activity comments:
div.activity-comments ul li {padding:10px 0;}
What would be nice is if the depth level of each activity comment was added in a class like [ul class=”has-comments acomment-depth-x”] where x is the activity comment depth level.
@shamus – Please create a child theme if you plan on making changes to any aspects of the default theme.
Once you’ve created a child theme, place the snippet I posted above in your child theme’s style.css.
@r-a-y OK, I did that but still no change.
Works for me.
Can you post your child theme’s stylesheet?
@r-a-y here you go
/* Inherit the default theme styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css );
/* Inherit the admin bar styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css );
/* Dark Colour Styles */
@import url( _inc/css/colours.css );
div.activity-comments ul li {padding:10px 0;}
Try adding an !important line:
div.activity-comments ul li {padding:10px 0 !important;}
Website link please.
If you don’t want your link publicly displayed, PM me with it.
Btw, this CSS snippet doesn’t fix the narrowness, it simply gives you a few more pixels to play around with.
@r-a-y I really need to get rid of the narrowness. Replys get so narrow that it is useless.
I was wondering what you would think of modifying ”bp-activity-templatetags.php” so that the loop would reverse direction every number of rows and then back again in a thread. Make sense? Possible?

This is a major flaw with the current code. Does anyone else see this?
