Adding idea title to BuddyPress activity stream

    I think it would be great if the plugin automatically added the idea title to the BuddyPress activity stream. For example, “John Smith wrote a new idea, idea title goes here”.

    How would you go about doing this? Also, do you think it’s possible to add this as a default in new versions of the plugin?

    Thanks for your help! This is an awesome plugin.

    Hi Jason,

    The way BuddyPress does for regular posts is by adding one activity meta :
    – post_title

    I thought WP Idea Stream should avoid adding a new activity meta, reason why i chose to not include the title into the Activity action string. But if you don’t mind adding this meta data, you can include it using a specific filter. Here’s a quick way to achieve it :

    1/ Create a wp-idea-stream-custom.php file
    2/ Paste in it this gist

    imath,

    Thank you!!! That worked perfectly. One last quick question, is there a way to include replies to associate with the idea title? For example, ‘John smith replied to this idea, Idea Title Goes Here’.

    Thanks again for your help. Much appreciated!
