Hi David,
Thank you for using the theme.

In the free version, the default behaviour of BuddyPress applies while in pro, we are letting site admins decide if the want to truncate/add read more etc.

You can disable truncation via code in the free version too

// Disable activity content truncation.
add_filter( 'bp_activity_maybe_truncate_entry', '__return_false' );

add_filter( 'bp_activity_excerpt_length', function($length) {
	return 1000;// number of characters to show by default in the activiyt excerpt.
} );

You can put these in your child theme’s functions.php

In the pro version, these are available as settings.

You are welcome.

I am glad it worked.
