** IMPORTANT ** This plugin has been updated for BuddyPress 1.5.1
This plugin will display a simple twitter-like notification ‘New activity update. Refresh the page.’ via ajax if a new activity stream record has been posted.
Polling is enabled for certain areas – main activity, group activity, profile activity (and the subnav – just-me, friends, groups, mentions)
Does not return a # of new activities – Does not live refresh the page. (no plans – future BP roadmap to include this already)
Restricted to loggedin_users, does not check for new activity comments.
The default polling is every 2 minutes (120000 milliseconds)

Frequently asked questions.
How do I adjust the ajax polling settings?
Edit the timeout polling via the wp-admin settings page
Default is: 60000
How do I change the CSS style of the notification message?
Override the CSS for #activity-notifier and #activity-notifier-link
Can you display how many new activity stream records? Can you just display the new activity stream records live?
No – the objective of this plugin is just a simple notification. BuddyPress.org RoadMap has live activity updating planned for a future release.
