If guest post comment, JomSocial display link to 0-profile in stream

Hello.
I use Komento, Easy Discuss, YoFlash, JReviews and few more components that have integration with JomSocial and can create some actions in stream:

Guest posted comment ***
Guest just played flash game ***
Guest created discussion ***
etc.

The problem: "Guest" word has a link to: crimsongame.ru/community/0-gost/profile or .../0-guest/profile

I saw this in JomSocial changelog :

Activity Stream
Bug Fix Guests in activity stream should not link to profile page (jReviews suggestion).

So if it was fixed by JomSocial team for jReview, How to fix it for other components?
Developers don't know how to fix it for their components:

Hm, when a guest posts a new discussion, we actually set the userid to 0 in JomSocial's stream and it's up to what they are doing to process the stream. Unfortunately there isn't any documentation about posting guest items on their stream. Looking at their api , there's no documentation about this either, when I looked through documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Stream_API_v2 .

However I really think that the checking should be done on their end when they populate the stream since they have access to these attributes, a simple check to determine if the user is a valid user or not should solve these issues.


So, how to do it?
Thanks.

Hi, SleepyMan.

Basically, as you know, we don't support 3rd party extension. It's up to their developers to do integration that work flawless.
Everything in JomSocial (and in Joomla!) is based on user ID.
Every action or object is related to it.
So users that are not a registered members have ID = 0 so nothing could be related to them.

But I ask our developers if there is a way to solve this in our end.


- 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
