Reply to Discussions In Activity Feed

Does anyone know how to incorporate replying to BuddyPress discussions within the activity feed? We are using the BuddyBoss platform and BuddyBoss custom theme.

We are trying to be a mainly forum/discussion-based site and we don’t use WP comments. So I want to have users be able to just click a “Reply” button in the activity feed to reply right there, versus being redirected to a new page (similar to Facebook’s reply/comments but for discussions).

We don’t modify the core files, only modify through child theme. We are also running bbPress through BuddyBoss. We have GoDaddy hosting with a LAMP managed server setup.

WordPress v5.5.3
BuddyBoss Platform v1.5.3
BuddyBoss Theme 1.6.0

Within your BuddyBoss custom theme, navigate to the templates related to the BuddyPress activity feed. You’ll likely find relevant files in the buddyboss-child-theme/buddypress/activity directory.

Look for the file responsible for rendering the activity feed and its items. You’ll want to customize this file to include a “Reply” button for each discussion.

2. Customizing the Activity Feed:

a. Locate the template file (e.g., activity/entry.php or similar) where the activity feed items are displayed.

b. Identify the section responsible for displaying BuddyPress activities related to discussions or forum posts.

c. Within this section, add a “Reply” button for each discussion using HTML and BuddyPress functions. Use the BuddyPress functions to generate a reply form or link.
