Hello,
I need a menu item to display a certain group. One way to do that is to have a menu item of type URL and to set the menu item link to that group. An example of my link I used: http://<MySite>/index.php/jomsocial/groups/viewgroup/14-<MyGroup>
1) Do you know what 14 stands for? If this is some kind of dynamic number that might change, my method of linking to a group will not work.
2) Is it possible to link a menue item to a specific group using a different method?
3) Is it possible to link a menue item to a specific group and only show the activity stream?
I need to send additional info in PM (my site is not public yet). To whom?
Rgds,
Gunnar
1. This number is static group ID - it won't change.
2. No, used method is the only one.
3. It's possible only with customization of group layout file. But this change will have global effect. if you want to do that for certain groups only - it will be a bit more complicated as you'll need to use php condition. Help of professional developer could be needed.
- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.
- Use the "Thank You" feature on any post that helped you
I think I need it conditional. For one group category (open) I want only the stream, for another categore (closed) I must, in one way or another, keep only the "Invite Friend" option, the other stuff I do not need. Please read my PM from earlier today first.
What does "customization of a group layout file" mean? I sounds like something in the back-end, but I have not found anything with which one could do this.
