Adding new module in JomSocial

JomSocial Expired

Hi,

I need to add a new module called "About Me" in user's profile. JomSocial already provides the about me details in profile page but I need these details in one extra module. If there is any plugin available for that please let me know.

Otherwise please let know which file I need to edit for hard-code.


Screenshot attached.

Hi, Sougata.

There is no need to hack any file as JomSocial already has built-in module positions:

documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Built-in_Module_Positions

All positions called js_profile(...) will display module in profile view.

If you ask for module that will display value of About me field than there is no such a module. You'll have to add hack to profile view template:

ROOT/components/com_community/templates/default/profile.index.php

Copy it to ROOT/templates/your-template/html/com_community (if you don't have "html" or "com_community" folders, feel free to create them)

Then you may use this trick:

- 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
