Thanks, I’ve seen that but I’m not a developer so I don’t know how to do it…
Haven’t tested yet but I think you would find the ‘ while ‘ statement and edit this function like this:
bp_has_activities(‘per_page=10’);
if you want ten items per page.
Let me know how it works for you.
I had this: <?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ) ) ) : ?> and I didn’t know how to add the per_page part so I did it this way: <?php if ( bp_has_activities (‘per_page=35’) ) : ?> and it worked. Thank you very much!
Ok so because I removed that my “Load More” thing isn’t working anymore… Is there a way to put (‘per_page=35’) along with ( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ) )??
I had this: <?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ) ) ) : ?>
and to specify the number of posts to show on the activity stream I want to add this: (‘per_page=35’)
without having to completely remove the ( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ) ) part.
Tried this but this the ajax function doesn’t load any more activity 
<?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘activity’ ) . ‘per_page=6’ ) ) : ?>
put this in your functions.php in your theme
function my_custom_query_filter( $query_string ) {
$query_string .= ‘&per_page=10?;
return $query_string;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_dtheme_ajax_querystring’, ‘my_custom_query_filter’ );
you just change per_page option as you need…
it’s run for me, you can see here http://blog.uin-malang.ac.id
@muchad
Thanks that worked
Here is one of the easiest ways to change the amount of activity stream posts per page in the default BuddyPress theme.
1. FTP to – example.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-activity/ – in your WP directory
2. Open – bp-activity-templatetags.php – in your text editor
3. Ctrl + F – then enter – ‘per_page’
4. Just change the value following – ‘per_page’ =>
@aomao
your welcome, please visit my buddypress at http://blog.uin-malang.ac.id
I would also like to change the number of items showing on activity stream I tried both of the suggestion here and they both broke my site showing an error page. I think the problem with the suggestion from muchad is that I didn’t know quite where to add the code. can someone help me.

I just try it above muchad’s code and put that in your child theme function.php. It works, why? Because the characters are messing it up. Here’s workable code:
`//=Change the number of activity items to show per page
function my_custom_query_filter( $query_string ) {
$query_string .= ‘&per_page=30’;
return $query_string;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_dtheme_ajax_querystring’, ‘my_custom_query_filter’ );`
guys it is very easy!
Go to buddypress/bp-activity/bp-activity-templatetags.php
change the number in the line 172
‘per_page’ => 20, // number of items per page
@sladkoe6ka thanks so much. simplest solution ever, worked like a charm

Terrible advice in this thread from people recommending edits to core bp files — any changes to them will be lost next time you upgrade Buddypress. Never edit core. Use the custom query filter instead.
@Mikey3D just tried your code and it even conrol members page. whatever number you set is for both activities and members page.
thanks
How would I write a query filter so that the activity stream that I copied to the home page shows five items, while the main one shows the default twenty?
