Help to display activity in another component was created by activha
Hello
I was thinking at displaying activity streams in another component page where I need to input the id of this component items in the asset.
Tried with the activity bot but it seems that it would not display directly in another component template
CB contentTried with an activity module and overriding its params but not luck neither
CB activity
Also tried directly to get the output :But no chance...
What's my best options, knowing that I need to output a dynamic id which is the item id of the component item (hotspot in this case).
I thought of using auto actions but cannot see really how to output them in another component template ?
Also can you tell me where to retrieve an asset id ?
For instance if I want to retrieve all events associated to my hotspots referenced by asset hotspot.%.event.%
Thanks in advance for suggestions

If your other component passes its content through Joomla content prepare then you'll be able to substitute in an activity stream, like buttons, etc.. using CB Activity Bot; see the description of CB Activity Bot in Extensions > Plugins for usage information.
If the other component doesn't pass its content through Joomla content prepare then you'll need to figure out another means like assigning a module to the components page, but that won't help if you need information from the other component to construct the asset.
If the other component has Joomla events you could try using CB Auto Actions and a CB Activity action; be sure to prefix the Joomla events with joomla_ for it to act on them.
Beyond that you'll have to explore using PHP and calling CB Activity API directly, which I don't recommend as it's just another thing you will have to maintain (the API may and likely will change in the future).
