 Hi guys,

 I have found a rather large bug in BP 1.6.3 that occurs when you edit an
 activity stream item from the backend.

 I noticed it when editing a forum reply and created the following
 screencast:

 http://www.screenr.com/dfO7

 SINCE THEN I HAVE TESTED IT THOROUGHLY AND IT AFFECTS ALL EDITED STEAM
 ITEMS - not just forum replies, but literally everything you edit from the
 dashboard.

 Steps to reproduce:

 - Create a stream item by posting a forum post for example.
 - Visit the 'Activity' dashboard.
 - Select the entry to edit. You don't need to edit it, just hit 'Update'.
 - Visit the stream and you will see that the item is now styled according
 to two incorrect classes of 'mini' and 'friend-request'.

 - Clicking on the time stamp - which would normally take you to the forum
 post for example, now diverts you to a single view friend request style
 page.

 I have tested this on 3 installs, 1 brand new install and it seems to
 affect ALL activity items that get edited in the backend.

 One way to correct this as a very basic workaround for forum posts is to
 trash the post, then restore it, so that the item is created again
 correctly. Editing it once more causes the issue once more.
