Question

Make BadgeOS its own BP activity stream type.

Opened this issue 11 years ago · 3 comments

"Has thought been given to allow BadgeOS achievements to get their own activity stream type? This would allow it to be filterable and not be confused with normal 'status updates' (which they currently are).

Our purpose: we display people's status updates in a widget, however that widget is now displaying their earned badges. These are distinct actions from each other, and should not be confused. If BadgeOS made their activity a separate 'type', this would get cleared up.

Great plugin!

Thanks."

I'm fixing this for client so can do a PR

Not against this by any means. Am curious if there's any risk for breaking anything from previous installs.

no because activity actions are hard coded into db so older items would be still the type of activity_update. I guess it would not show old items n the toggle but a script might be able to go through and update old items.
