Hello @adebowalepro

To remove the RSS feed tab you have to edit the activity template. Please follow these steps to edit activity template:

1- Go to your theme folder : boss\buddypress\activity\index.php
2- Copy index.php to your child theme at similar path like this boss-child\buddypress\activity\
3- Remove the code at line no. 72

<li class="feed"><a href="<?php bp_sitewide_activity_feed_link(); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'RSS Feed', 'boss' ); ?>"><?php _e( 'RSS', 'boss' ); ?></a></li>

Also add following codes to your child theme functions.php file:

function bp_remove_feeds() {
        remove_action( 'wp', 'bp_activity_action_sitewide_feed', 3 );
        remove_action( 'wp', 'bp_activity_action_personal_feed', 3 );
        remove_action( 'wp', 'bp_activity_action_friends_feed', 3 );
        remove_action( 'wp', 'bp_activity_action_my_groups_feed', 3 );
        remove_action( 'wp', 'bp_activity_action_mentions_feed', 3 );
        remove_action( 'wp', 'bp_activity_action_favorites_feed', 3 );
        remove_action( 'wp', 'groups_action_group_feed', 3 );
}
add_action('init', 'bp_remove_feeds');

Members avatar have same uniform color border.

@adebowalepro the comment section is closed by default, a user simply needs to click on the comment button to comment on the activity.

Hey Varun – none of that worked for me for some reason?

Removed it through CSS instead:
#subnav li.feed {display:none;}

removing following codes from boss\buddypress\activity\index.php
it works fine with mobile and desktop both

<li class="feed"><a href="<?php bp_sitewide_activity_feed_link(); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'RSS Feed', 'boss' ); ?>"><?php _e( 'RSS', 'boss' ); ?></a></li>

not sure why it is not working with you.
