Hello,
Are you certain that the old plugin works on your local installation and that you have the latest version of everything? The very issue we found is that it wouldn’t bump.
I’m a bit surprised to hear that it was working, as you can imagine I’d not have wasted my time otherwise. Having made the changes I thought I’d release it here for others to be helpful, as I notice in the support forum several others were having the same issue of no bumping:
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/plugin-buddypress-activity-stream-bump-to-top-not-bumping-in-buddypress-16?replies=3
Though that was in 1.6. I’ll also be looking to add additional features and any improvements that users request in this support forum.
The difference in mine and the original plugin therefore – is that this one works with all versions up to and including the most recent versions of buddypress and wordpress.
I understand the original author can’t update anymore. So hopefully me stepping in is helpful to the wordpress community ??
