    Hello,

    Please how can I add a new Read More link after the new_blog_post activity type while using the buddyblog pro plugin.

    I have tried this code but did not work

     function bp_activity_read_more() {
    if ( bp_is_active('activity') ) {
        global $activities_template;

        if ( 'new_blog_post' === $activities_template->activity->type ) {
            $activity = $activities_template->activity;

            $post_id = $activity->primary_link;
            $excerpt = bp_create_excerpt( $activity->content );
            $url_ad = get_permalink( $post_id );

            echo '<div class="activity-content">';
            echo '<p class="activity-excerpt">' . esc_html( $excerpt ) . '</p>';
            echo '<div class="read-more"><a href="' . esc_url( $url_ad ) . '">Read More</a></div>';
            echo '</div>';
        }
    }
}
add_action( 'bp_before_activity_loop', 'bp_activity_read_more' );

    Hello Tosin,

    Try action ‘bp_activity_entry_content’ and fix your post_id.

    
 $post_id = $activity->primary_link;

    Regards

    Thanks Ravi,

    This code below worked for me

     function bp_activity_read_more( $content, $activity ) {
    if ( 'new_blog_post' === $activity->type ) {
        $post_id = $activity->secondary_item_id;
        $post_url = get_permalink( $post_id );

        // Append the "Read More" link to the content
        $read_more_link = '<div class="read-more"><a href="' . esc_url( $post_url ) . '">Read More</a></div>';
        $content .= $read_more_link;
    }

    return $content;
}
add_filter( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', 'bp_activity_read_more', 10, 2 );
