Description
BuddyPress Activity shortcode plugin allows you to insert BuddyPress activity stream on any page/post using shortcode. It has a lot of flexibility built in the shortcode.
You can customize almost all aspects of the activity list, what should be listed, how many and everything using the shortcode.
This plugin does not include any css and utilizes your theme’s css for displaying the activity. If you need any help, please ask on BuddyDev support forums.
We are helpful people looking forward to assist you.

The simple way to use it is by including this shortcode
