ISSUE SUMMARY:

On Development Site.

When creating a New Group, the activity post automatically generated for the main wall loses formatting. For example bullets are not showing.

Also, can a longer/more complete portion of the Group Description be shared automatically in the Group Creation Activity post?


STEPS TO REPLICATE:
1 Create Group
2 In Group Creation, enter bullet items
3 finish Group Creation
4 view activity on main wall
5 activity is posted but formatting is lost
RESULT
Group Creation Activity is correctly posted to main wall but formatting of Group Description is lost
EXPECTED RESULT
Formatting is retained, for example bullet items
BROWSER

Thank you.

Customer isn't happy with it, would prefer to have HTML displayed if possible.
Is it much work to re-enable it? Modify a few core files?

Might even by a nice feature to be able to control within the JomSocial Configuration Dashboard.

For now I will tell customer it is not possible.

Hi Irion,

to show the HTML format you should modify / override this file components/com_community/templates/jomsocial/layouts/activities/groups/create.php, find this code :

<span><?php echo JHTML::_('string.truncate',strip_tags($this->group->description) , $config->getInt('streamcontentlength')); ?></span>
replace to :
<span><?php echo JHTML::_('string.truncate',$this->group->description , $config->getInt('streamcontentlength')); ?></span>

It worked, thanks for the help.
Very easy to implement or remove as needed.
