Hi,
if you need to have buddypress-all_activity subnav as default subnav but the page used by buddypress to show the site activity stream working correctly you can substitute the original file:
/plugins/buddypress/bp-activity/classes/class-bp-activity-component.php
with this one. I think it is not an elegant way to do that but it works!!!

<?php

Dear Brajesh,
do you remember me? 😉
Kisses!

Dear support,
after some new tests I found that the problem I showed is not caused by the plugin. It is a problem between the buddypress function bp_core_new_nav_default and the theme used. Hence I will move this tread to buddypress section.
I apologize for this.
Best wishes!
Giulietta

Dear Brajesh,
take your time, it is not urgent and you are just making me a favor…
Best regards!
Giulietta

Dear Brajesh,
thank you for your quick and kind answer. I hope you will find some suggestions to solve my problem.
Best wishes!
Giulietta
