BuddyPress.org

I would love to see this, and actually I think it would be prudent to keep people’s activity out of the stream until they have been a member for a selectable amount of time, say 2 days, 3 days, a week. Perhaps even have an option fot amount of posts or something. This would keep the spam blog posts they make from pushing the legit ones off my front page.

I would also like to see this filter turned off if logged in as admin, so we could administer the the spammers better – I often go to my front page and look at the activity stream to find the spammers – so if this filtered my view, than it would be harder to hunt them.

Good idea – maybe a plugin will be created like this one day.

but instead of component == ‘blogs’ change it to type == ‘new_member’

then change your theme activity/index.php to remove the select option ‘show new members’

I would also like to see this filter turned off if logged in as admin, so we could administer the the spammers better –

using the above example – add before the loop

if ( is_site_admin() )

return $activities;
