CB Activity module stopped working on J4

I have multiple activity streams working thru-out my site.

I created a distinct page for a logged-in member to see an Activity Feed - all his own activity plus connections, following, etc.  The CB Activity module displays on that 1 page.

This worked great in Joomla 3 but doesn't display anything at all in Joomla 4. I had made no changes to settings or files between them, so it's odd J4 would break it unless J4 triggered different logic.

What has been working is "user.connections" in the stream asset. I also tried "user, user.connections, following" but still nothing.

Any ideas?

Profile activity streams check profile access permissions. Can you see that users profile and the stream on their profile? If not it won't render in the module. The only exception is if it's just hidden from profile by moving it to a not shown on profile tab position. As for what could limit access it could be CB Privacy, CB Conditional, or even CB Paid Subscriptions depending on your configuration.

Yes, I'm admin and I can see all profiles. I haven't changed any permissions.

This seems like a really basic use pattern, but I have tried everything in asset/stream, etc, and nothing happens.

So I have one stream on the profile which I use like the blog. The user can post and people can comment.  Works great and I can see in the #__comprofiler_plugin_activity this entry:

| 364 |       100 |     ### | profile.### |        0 | NULL  | NULL  | This is a new post. |       0 |     0 |      0 |         1 | 2024-11-22 21:26:15 | NULL     | {"action":{"id":0,"message":""},"link":{"url":"","media":,"thumbnail":true,"details":true},"gallery":""} | 1732310775.364 |

### is my user id.

The "Module 143"  Activity Stream is used by the CB Activity Module, and all I have there is :
Stream)  Asset = user
Filters) Include Assets = user,user.connections,following
, with no other changes to default.

This works great on J3, but just blank on J4. I'm not using CB Privacy or Conditionals here.

I have debugging turned on and no crash messages.

I put debugging code at the top of  /modules/mod_cbactivity/mod_cbactivity.php - and it's not even running!

Is the module itself published? If so then check within System > Manage > Extensions search "CB Activity" and be sure the CB Activity module is there and published as that's the extension itself.

OK, searching in manage I see both the module and plugin - "6.1.1+build.2024.09.24.17.47.31.dc6223263 " - enabled and not locked. Module is published and I have all permissions.

I see Joomla 4 changed how modules are loaded.  Then I noticed the position was wrong - "Position 3" , but that still worked in my old template. I changed to Position 2 and still didn't show. I then selected my old template to be used on that menu item - and it worked!

So somehow the new template, which is just Cassiopeia with my additions, is not loading it. This is rather bizarre as I am loading numerous other modules thru-out the site the same way (to position 2).

---> I just changed position to main-top and it displays on the new template now. thanks.
