Introduction
The Activity Privacy feature enables members to manage who can see their activity posts, including photo and document uploads. This built-in option lets users choose from multiple privacy settings—Public, All Members, My Connections, or Only Me—ensuring that content is shared with the intended audience without requiring any additional plugins.
