Comment:

 Both of the proffered solutions - 'Untitled Post' and 'Post ##' - seem
 inelegant to me. Think about how WP itself handles this issue. When you
 don't provide a title for a post, the theme will simply show nothing. I'd
 say this is generally the right behavior; when an author doesn't provide a
 title, it's usually a conscious choice. Imposing a title in the activity
 stream seems like it disregards this choice.

 If you don't like this default behavior, you can attach a filter to
 bp_blogs_activity_new_post_action. Check out bp_blogs_record_post() in bp-
 blogs.php to see what you'd be filtering.
