Buddypress Activity Privacy might work . I will give it a go.
I’m pretty sure that since BP 1.9 such issues won’t happen (on a correctly configured install).
Private forums are…private and a topic posted in a private forum isn’t shown on the SWA. You can only see such an activity if you’re the author of the post (within (profile > activity) or on the private group.
To be clear, you’re asking
Is there any way to hide activity in private forums from activity stream?
and cite as example an old post titled
Private group posts appearing in Activity Stream to non-members.
Hum ? It isn’t the same context i guess. 😉
Do you want to hide private group activities or do you want to eliminate a wrong behaviour, like the second question relates to ?
Hi @danbp, thanks for answering.
OK, this is embarassing: I checked again and the forum was not set as private.
and voila : A post in a private forum does not show up in public activity stream.
Sorry about that one. 😉
