Problems with CB stream in response to CB API loading

Damn, not finished yet... I have displayed a custom stream just like you mentioned underneath my third party component.

I am displaying the full stream as module and I need to show the link of where the CB activity post was posted (like you do with the CB Gallery). The problem is "Where do I do that?"

I have attached a picture underneath that examplifies what I mean.


For the moment, the post is simply a post... whithout any link or subject or anything...

That you can't do without PHP as you need to act on the display output of the activity, parse specifically for your activity type, then override its display. The trigger to do that is activity_onDisplayActivity. You'll have to use a Code action with Method set to PHP and under Parameters set variables 1-8 to be references. You can then modify the activity output from your action. The trigger variables are as follows.

&$row, &$title, &$date, &$message, &$insert, &$footer, &$menu, &$extras, $stream, $output

Specifically in your case you'll need to modify $title, which would be done as follows in the code action.

Ah thanks, that is really helpful, problem is: I want to use one of the variables that I am sending through the CB API as "This is my title" ([var2] and that one to be a URL that is also sent through as variable ([var5]).

Your stream should be created with the ID of whatever object the stream is in relation to. So if it's an article you'd set the Item or Parent to the ID of that article for example. Next in your code action you'd build the article object from that ID and access whatever information you need from it. Note type, subtype, item, and parent will be gone in CB Activity 4.0.0 replaced by Asset so you'll need to remember to update your code usage when 4.0.0 comes out.
