Hello there,

I am using the Kleo Activity Stream, I would like to remove or hide the excerpt from the stream..I tried CSS but it doesn’t seem to work at all …any Suggestions?

[sharmstr]

Is this what you’re after?

COPY CODE

.kleo-activity-streams .activity-inner {
    display: none !important;
}

That didn’t quite work as expected…that removed the image too..perhaps is there someway to just shorten the excerpt? Perhaps I need to change the Buddypress file?

Gotcha. But…. where is the image coming from. From an rtMedia upload with the activity update? From a featured image on a published post activity?

If its from rtMedia upload via an update, you can try

COPY CODE

.kleo-activity-streams .rtmedia-activity-text {
    display: none !important;
}

If its from a published post, that would be more difficult since everything is contained within a p tag. There is no separation of text and image. Kleo only stylizes Buddypress output so, you’d have to ask the buddypress guys how to edit their published post activity function so that it doesnt save the text of the post, only the featured image, to the activity table. Or how to change it so it adds a tag around the text and a separate tag around the image so you can control the display of each via css.

Hope that make sense.

Ah the images are from published post…and ask the Buddypress guys? That is a total joke..if it weren’t for themes like yours Buddypress would have died long ago.

Well thanks a lot!

It took me forever to figure this out, so I wont be tweaking it for you, but….

Try this code if you want. It doesnt differentiate between the Kleo Activity Stream shortcode and the buddypress activity page. In other words, it will filter all instances of New Post activities. It looks for a featured image for the post. If it finds one, it only returns the featured image. If it doesnt find one, it displays the post excerpt as it normally would.

COPY CODE

add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', 'strip_post_excerpt' );
function strip_post_excerpt( $array  ) {
    global $activities_template;

    if ( 'new_blog_post' == $activities_template->activity->type ) {
        $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( $activities_template->activity->secondary_item_id, 'full' );
        if ( $thumb ) {
            $array = $thumb;
        }
    }
    return $array;
}

I hope you find it useful.

Wow BRILLIANT..I will definitely try this I had all but given up!

So I am thinking I add this to my Child theme and then add the CSS code?

Thanks again!

It goes in your functions.php file. No css needed.
