    It looks like the stream displays recent messages on top. Is it also possible to take into account not only recent messages, but also recent replies?

    So if a member replies on an older message this message (with replies) moves to the top of the stream, like (I think) Facebook does?

    Hi Hugo,
    Thank you for noticing.

    In case of BuddyPress, It is not doable unless we touch the timestamp of parent activity every time a comment is made.

    BuddyPress does allows listing of comments as normal activity on top when we set display_comments=stream

    That view presents flat list of comments and activity (not threaded inside the parent).

    Regards

    Please look for activity-loop.php in your theme(should be in buddyress/activity directory).

    You will find a line bp_has_activity() there. You will need to set it like

    
bp_has_activity('display_comments'=> 'stream')
