[Resolved] How can I disable secondary avatars in activity items?

I know I can disable them in css, with .activity-header > p > a > img.avatar { display: none; }, but I’d like to disable them in PHP, so that the page might load a little faster.

I figure I have to remove the filter secondary_avatars from the hook bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta, but since it was added with an object context, I have to do that with an array containing the variable instance of the BP_Legacy object. It would look something like this: remove_filter( 'bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta', array( $bp_legacy_var???, 'secondary_avatars', 10 ) );, but I don’t know what $bp_legacy_var??? is supposed to be. Does anyone know?

You’re talking about the value of $this in the filter call in class BP_Legacy extends BP_Theme_Compat ?
add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta', array( $this, 'secondary_avatars' ), 10, 2 );

Good question.
And I’d be interested in the answer.

There must be a simple way to disable secondary avatars…
You might want to ask about this on Slack.

Meanwhile, this works, not very efficient ‘tho.
Hook is in bp-activity\bp-activity-template.php
```
function remove_secondary_avatar( $item_id ){
	
	$item_id = '';
	
	return $item_id;
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_secondary_avatar_item_id', 'remove_secondary_avatar' );
```
And this works, but I don’t know why :<
```
function remove_activity_secondary_avatars( $action, $activity ) {
    
    if ( $activity->component = NULL ) {
	// don't do anything
    }

    return $action;
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta', 'remove_activity_secondary_avatars', 10, 2 );
```

This should work:
```
function my_remove_secondary_avatars( $bp_legacy ) {
    remove_filter( 'bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta', array( $bp_legacy, 'secondary_avatars' ), 10, 2 );
}
add_action( 'bp_theme_compat_actions', 'my_remove_secondary_avatars' );
```
Untested, but let me know if it works!
