Edit Activity

In this tutorial, you will learn how to allow your members to edit their activity posts, with the ability to modify the post’s text content, photos, documents, and privacy. You can also set time limits for when an activity post can be edited after it has been published.

You must enable the Edit Activity option in the BuddyBoss settings to allow users to edit/update the published posts.

NOTE: By default, this option is disabled when you first activate the BuddyBoss Platform.
