Hi Jay,

Thanks for posting on the forum.

I have also tested it on my test site using the latest version of BuddyPress Activity Plus plugin and found the content from above listed URLs doesn’t get fetched.

This is may be because of some type of security restriction.

I have notified the plugin developer to troubleshoot it. He will troubleshoot it and reply on this thread.

Thanks,
WPMU DEV

I’m also having this issue.

Cheers,

doesn’t fetch image that well…
