Hi,

I can't view the activity stream on the frontpage before logging in. its blank. I could actually care less if it were there but when its not it leaves a ugly empty space and the site looks dumb like that so need to fill in that space so gotta get the activity stream back. Also do you guys know anyone who can help me with design or is it possible to do so? i do not like anything about how the modules look and pretty much everything as in style . its just too basic looking.

Hi, Bryan.

It's because you set to NOT display activity stream for NON-LOGGED IN users.

You may also hide sidebar modules for guests so it will look better.

So copy this file:

ROOT/components/com_community/templates/jomsocial/layouts/frontpage/base.php

to:

ROOT/templates/your-template/html/com_community/layouts/frontpage/ (if you don't have any of those folders, feel free to create them)

Edit file and look for:

<?php if ($moduleCount > 0) { ?>

<?php 
    $user = JFactory::getUser();
    if (($moduleCount > 0) AND (!$user->guest)) { ?>

I'll try the code but for reference under the jomsocial backend where it ask how i want the activity stream displayed i have it set to "show" for the frontpage. if there is any other section of the backend that controls it then i have no idea where that would be

Oh i found this code but not the one you described to find.

I found this <?php if ($moduleCount > 0) { ?>
and not this <?php if ($moduleCount > 0) { ?>

Hi, Bryan.

I provided you with solution that works 100% - I tested it.
If you followed my instruction you should succeed. As I see you found the code.
Please, compare what you find with my post above.

Also I advise you to hire a developer to do any changes for you... I'm sorry to say that but it seems that you have no at least basic php/html skills... so you may involuntary damage something.

I still can't find how to show the Activity Stream on the Frontpage. Everything is selected to show it in the jomsocial backend but still nothing .

Hi, Bryan.

You couldn't see activity stream because you had only ONE activity... and it has privacy set to display it only for you (this is default privacy setting you've made).

I've posted a public activity and it's visible.

So just change your account default activity privacy: prntscr.com/7c5p6x
