Select default landing tab on site-wide activity

[majecdad]

Hello,

I had posted this over in support, and it was recommended that I add an enhancement ticket... so here goes. :)

So I’m simply looking to make the default landing/open tab on the Site-wide Activity page be ‘My Groups’ instead of ‘All Members’.

This was referenced as far back as ​here by @modemlooper who made a great analogy to the potential of an overwhelming feed. However, in following multiple threads from there, I still haven’t found a solution.

I did see a reference to this: define( ‘BP_GROUPS_DEFAULT_EXTENSION’, ‘forum’ ); out there too for Groups pages, and I wondered if there was a way to use it on the SWA page?

In asking that over in support, @shanebp said: It definitely should be exposed as a DEFINE, similar to define('BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' );

So there you have it. Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Thanks for the suggestion; it seems to make sense.

We're closing this ticket because it has not received any contribution or comments for at least two years. We have decided that it is better to close tickets that are good ideas, which have not gotten (or are unlikely to get) contributions, rather than keep things open indefinitely. This will help us share a more realistic roadmap for BuddyPress with you.

Everyone very much appreciates the time and effort that you spent sharing your idea with us. On behalf of the entire BuddyPress team, thank you.

If you feel strongly that this enhancement should still be added to BuddyPress, and you are able to contribute effort towards it, we encourage you to re-open the ticket, or start a discussion about it in our Slack channel. Please consider that time has proven that good ideas without contributions do not get built.
