I’m using bp_has_activities() http://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-activity-stream-loop to display latest forum posts. At first I wasn’t sure it was right, but when I tried the widget, it displayed exactly the same info, so I guess I was right on it. However, it returns A LOT of info, and I need only the title. How do I change that output to get only the title or maybe a very short excerpt, just not that incredible amount of info?

Many thanx in advance

bp_activity_feed_item_title()

fwiw, i have latest forum topics widget for the plugin group forum extras – i should have it updated this week (it might be in the trunk already – can’t remember)

Hey, thanx Etiviti. However, I’m not the sharpest knife in the drawer, how should I add it exactly? I’ve replaced bp_has_activities() with bp_activity_feed_item_title() but didn’t get anything. I have this code:

<?php if ( bp_activity_feed_item_title() ) : ?>



<ul id="groups-list" class="item-list">

<?php while ( bp_groups() ) : bp_the_group(); ?>



<li>

<div class="item">

<div class="item-title"><a>"><?php bp_group_name() ?></a></div>

<div class="item-desc"><?php bp_group_description_excerpt() ?></div>



<?php do_action( 'bp_directory_groups_item' ) ?>

</div>



<div class="clear"></div>

</li>

<?php endwhile; ?>



<?php do_action( 'bp_after_groups_loop' ) ?>



<?php else: ?>



<div id="message" class="info">

<p><?php _e( 'There were no groups found.', 'buddypress' ) ?></p>

</div>



<?php endif; ?>

are you trying to display the recent activity in the group directory, underneath their info?

I just wrote a Quick Tip about this on my demo site

http://etivite.com/groups/buddypress/forum/topic/quick-tip-display-the-groups-recent-activity-on-group-directory-groups-loop/#topic

includes the source code and the call to feed_item_title()

with the method i outlined you can add in the new_forum_posts to only show that activity

Thanks etiviti, I got it all wrong until I realized it should go on functions.php and now it works, many thanks
