Blog post author – wrong activity line?

[AdamK]

Hi Guys

I don’t know if this is a Kleo issue, a WP issue or a BP issue. I thought I would ask here first maybe you had come across it before.

So I have added a blog post from a site user, via the admin area.

I have set up the user as a contributor, and set the blog post author to that user. On the blog post itself, it shows the correct author.

However, the post added activity is showing on my timeline, and not the authors timeline.

Do you know anything about this, or any ideas how to fix it?

Many thanks for your assistance, your support is doing really great lately.

Hi @AdamK,

Did you by chance publish the post before setting the author? This would cause it to be accredited to the administrator and create the BuddyPress activity item for the administrator.

If that is that case, you can copy the post content, delete the post, delete the activity item and then create a new post, set the correct author and publish. This should create a new activity item accredited to the author of the post.

Let me know if this helps,

Kieran.
