Thanks, but I'm having trouble understanding this :/

That code makes the activity appear in the main feed, but it doesn't show up in an individual groups activity.

I figured this out after taking another look at it today :) I tried adding groups_get_current_group()->id as a hard coded ID (since BuddyPress would have no way of knowing which group I wanted to assign). Today I realiseid I of course also needed to remove the conditional if bp_is_group() from around it too, and it worked :)

I don't seem to need the bp_activity_set_post_type_tracking_args() when using it with a custom post-type, so I've been able to remove that too.
