BuddyPress.org

I have a music community that shares a great deal of media in the activity stream using the awesome BP Activity Stream Plus plugin. Due to all of the media files initializing their streams; the page takes a very long time to load, the Admin Bar is non-existent and page does not accept any user input until completed loading. I would like to limit the default initial entries in the loop to 5. I’ve tried creating a custom loop and it works well to show 5 items, however, every time a user clicks the Load More link, BP spits out the same 5 items from page 1 and can not access previous entries.

After looking through the codex I’ve tried replacing this:

“

with this:

“

Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this properly?

I do not have a problem editing a core file if I have to.

Thanks,
Darin
