Activity Thread
One post from the wall, with its full comment thread.
This is a background feature. Members reach it by tapping a post’s comments rather than by navigating to it.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”| Plugin | Ultimate Member - Social Activity |
| Endpoint groups | Wall, Users |
| Plan | Every plan |
Add it to your app
Section titled “Add it to your app”- Open the Background tab.
- Drag Activity Thread onto it.
Only one is allowed, and one is all you need — the same screen serves every route into it.
Settings
Section titled “Settings”| Setting | What it does | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Content styling | Inherits app tokens |
Four ways in
Section titled “Four ways in”This is why it is a background feature rather than a tab:
- Tapping comments on a post in the News Feed.
- Tapping a post in a group’s discussion wall.
- Tapping a post in a member’s profile activity tab.
- Tapping an activity result in Search.
Place it once and all four work. Leave it out and all four do nothing.
What your members see
Section titled “What your members see”The post in full, its reactions, and its comments. Members can comment, react to comments, reply to a comment, and edit their own comments.
Replies sit under the comment they answer, one level deep as on your website: replying to a reply joins the same thread. The comment box says who the member is replying to, with an × to go back to commenting on the post. Comments and replies take @mentions and #hashtags — see Mentions and hashtags.
A post’s own photo shows here, and so does the album behind a “created a new album” post — tapping it opens the album, the same as tapping it in the feed.
The comment count updates live as comments are added.
Links inside the post route natively, so a linked post opens Single Post and a linked member opens their Profile.
When it does not work

| It will not drop | One is already placed | Check the Background tab |
| The thread is empty | The Wall group is off | Enable it |
| Comment authors show without names | The Users group is off | Enable it |
| Members cannot comment | They are signed out, or the post’s group restricts it | Check both |
| Group posts do not open | Same feature, same fix | Place it once |
