Hi,
I want the "Allow members to upload photos and create albums" and the "Allow members to upload videos" to be set as allowed as default when creating new groups and then hide these photo and video options on this page.
Can you please point me in the right direction?
Thanks.

Hi Michael,

for this you must override Jomsocial template. please follow this steps:
1. copy groups.forms.php from /components/com_community/templates/default/ to /templates/your-template/html/com_community. ( documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Customizing_Template )

2. edit that file

line 113: put this new code
<?php
$jinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
$task = $jinput->get('task', "", 'STR' );
?>

edit line 118 and 159:
from
type="text"
to
type="hidden"

edit line 130: 
from
( $params->get('photopermission') == GROUP_PHOTO_PERMISSION_ALL)
to 
( $params->get('photopermission') == GROUP_PHOTO_PERMISSION_ALL || $task == 'create')

dit line 170:
from
($params->get('videopermission') == GROUP_VIDEO_PERMISSION_ALL)
to 
($params->get('videopermission') == GROUP_VIDEO_PERMISSION_ALL || $task == 'create')

and.. Done :-)

Please let me know the result. If you don't know how to do it. please provide me FTP access detail by editing this topic

Regards,
Albert

Hi Albertus,
Thanks for your fast reply. Unfortunately it doesnt do exactly what I am hoping to achieve.

Attachment groups.png not found

I want all of these check boxes checked as default

Attachment groups2.jpg not found

And then I wanna hide both photo and video options for users completely so they cannot choose. But all the checkboxes is still set.

Is this possible?
Thanks
