    how to extend ‘read more’ to not only show few words?

    also to directly display video (youtube etc) without having to click ‘read more’

    Hi Johan,
    This is a BuddyPress feature.

    You can disable it by putting this code

    
add_filter( 'bp_activity_maybe_truncate_entry', '__return_false' );

    There is also a way to set the length. I will add it as an option in next minor release.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    set the length will be good, also to show video/ images directly, just like fb

    hope you can set the default words count to be fb standard, because that’s like how people r used to

    Hi Johan,
    Thank you for the suggestion.

    In case of BuddyPress, There is a filter to limit the length but it is by number of characters and not the words.

    I have added this option in the Community Builder Pro(Customize->BuddyPress->Activity). It will be available with next release(Friday/Saturday).

    Thank you
    Brajesh
