  Hi Chris,
  
  I have been working with BuddyPress for a year.
  
  Can you paste how you have changed the action?

    That is the function that saves the action. The database stores the action properly. It's just not being output by the theme.
    
    Thanks for your reply.

    Also, to be clear, I only change the format of the action for custom post type activity. I do not change the action for these types of activity:
    
    joined_group
    created_group
    new_avatar
    activity_update
    activity_comment
    new_calendar_event (I'm using the BP Group Calendar plugin)
    
    I don't see the bp_activity.action for any type of activity, not just CPT. Thank you.

    Chris,
    
    I have been seeing your code and I see everything OK.
    
    Have you set WP_DEBUG true? You can do the next 5 ways to debug WordPress:
    1. define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ); // in wp-config.php
    2. define( 'SCRIPT_DEBUG', true ); // in wp-config.php
    3. define( 'SAVEQUERIES', true ); // in wp-config.php to save what queries are exectuted
    4. add_action( 'all', create_function( '', 'var_dump( current_filter() );' ) ); // in functions.php to see how many hooks get executed on every page load
    5. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/core-control/ // this plugin to control core WP

    Chris Hajer says:

    I have added the three defines to wp-config.php and the one function to my theme's functions.php. I did not install the core control plugin yet.
    
    What output can I share with you to help debug this?
    
    Here is a page on the website so you can see what's going on right now:

    Chris,
    
    If no errors appear, try to put "show_errors = true" in php.ini and then reload the service of the http daemon.

    Francisco Javier Carazo Gil says:

    Chris,
    
    Sorry, the correct parameter is "display_errors = true" and you also should set "error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED".

    There are lots of warnings and notices. I am on a shared host, so I can't restart HTTPD. But I think the output is sufficient already. Warnings and noticed are displayed. Do we need more?
