Added to version 1.0.1

[Brandon Sheley]

great idea ;)

[maxicep]

Thanks a lot :)

Now, new features will be better :)

[maxicep]

I'd like to have members only see group messages after joining group.
Or
Private Groups or "Invite Only" Group posts should be invisible until the join these groups .

How can i make this also ? Do u know ?

[Reeve of shinra]

nice work!

[RvG2]

cool... can you add the picture moderation?

Can't do, it will require extra queries!

You mean combining my hack with this https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=169830
??
Nope, can't do it either :o

[Phooey]

Awesome! This will be one of the first I install when I get my new 3.7 site up.

Nope ;)

[maxicep]

Hi again :)

I want a lot of thing but :)

Last my wish is ; "How can we add "You need join group first for see messages in this group" message in visible group permission. ? :)

[Martin Meredith]

For "private" groups - I'm pretty sure that this will still show the "submit" button for the quick reply if the group has the ability to post in groups that they are not a member of

The hack has nothing to do with the qucik reply submit button!
I thought if you were not a member to an invite only group, you wont be able to see the quick reply box nor the button!
am I right?

[maxicep]

Members can see "You need join group first for see messages in this group" warning in Private Groups which didnt join.

My point was more of the case that you haven't taken into account a situation where a user has access to post messages in groups that they are not a member of, but this mod is applied...

[jilly]

Thank You For The Group Privacy Option!!!

[makofu]

Update:

Group Messages Privacy (Hide group messages in an 'invite only' groups from users who are not members of the group.) v1.0.2

:)
Looks like a great mod! Haven't installed it yet but wondered, will admins still be able to view the messages in invite only groups, even if they aren't members of the group? If not, I would like to suggest (beg for) that, and/or a feature that allows for a certain user to be automatically added to a social group when one gets created. Kind of like a social groups moderator.

[jilly]

I'd be interested in seeing an add-on that allows users to choose an option to recieve notice of any new posts on the group thread, or any new albums created or pictures uploaded to the group..

The "invite only" groups has the reply box hidden from those who are not members of the "invite only" groups by default.

Unless I'm missing something here, would someone confirm this please?

The privacy option in the hack has nothing to do with other group types but "invite only" groups.

Admins or Supermoderators with canmoderategroupmessages permission should be able to view the messages in an invite only groups.

I'm Sorry but that is a whole different hack request, and I aint got the time for it!

[Jase2]

What a great addon, thanks for the release, much appreciated.

Martin Meredith, surely you've got to be considering adding these features?

Regards Jason :)

[jilly]

Would be good to have an option to 'request an invite' if you see an invite only group you might want to join. I know with 'invite only' it sort of seems that you shouldn't ask, (cause it's invite only) but depending on the group and who's running it, if you ask for an invite, they might let you in.

I would have it show up right under the words 'invite only' to the left, when you are looking at the group description

[uae]

I'm afraid that would require a file edit, and I'm all against hacks with file edits.

function can_join_group in functions_socialgroup.php should be changed a little.

[ShawneyJ]

sweet thx.

[nevetS]

I see that "group privacy" was removed in 1.0.3. Where is the group privacy setting in 3.7? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

It's built in with vB 3.7 RC1.

[RvG2]

dear uae, may i request file 1.0.2 pls :)

[fulviods]

Great mod but a pity that the limits are not defined with usergroup!

In fact I wanted to give more or less limits depending of the usergroup!

I wanted to use vbcredits (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1476291) to give more or less limits depending on how many credits the user have! (I dont know if vbcredits can automatically change the usergroup of a user when he reach a certain amount of credits.)

What do you think? Possible?

[fulviods]

??? :( my idea is not good? :)

[smooth-c]

simply amazing!

[uae]

dear uae, may i request file 1.0.2 pls :)
I'm sorry, I don't have a copy of 1.0.2 :(

I have never installed vbcredits, you should ask in that thread :confused:

No! Im sorry my english is not perfect. You dont need vbcredits!
Forget vbcredits.

Just : it would be good if the limits could be managed by usergroup!
So i can do settings like this:

-registred users : limit = 2 albums .......
- personalizzed group: limit = 5albums....

you see?

[Harley77]

Is there a possibility of not being able to see that a invite only group exists unless you are a member of the group or admin?

[akoj]

Thank you! This is exactly what I needed!

[RobH]

That's what I'd like to see....all "invite only" Groups should be hidden unless you have been invited and joined... is this doable? Also is there anyway to reverse the view in the Groups so that it matches the forums view? Having to read Group messages from the bottom up is kinda strange. Is there a possibility of not being able to see that a invite only group exists unless you are a member of the group or admin?

[Henkou]

thanks, just installed, will be tested )

[XiZa]

Is it possible to moderate new social groups? That way I can accept or deny a new group request so that my users don't create duplicate groups.

[EvilJohn]

Thank You. Installed!

[Artes_Marciales]

Woowww great idea : )

[crkgb]

[Feature Request]
I think it would be great to be able to set different social group settings per user rank. Let's say, users with 0-100 points cannot start a social group, users with 101-300 can have 1 social group, 501-1000 = 2 social groups etc.

[haytham]

Thanks so much. This should have been included in VB.

[ArnyVee]

Great mod! Works here for 3.7.1 P1 :D

Another vote for the addition of the permissions by usergroup option that folks have mentioned. ;)

Thanks for the efforts!

[Smiry Kin's]

posted in wrong thread damn-it lol

[BigDog56]

Installed! Thank you!

[VB-STYLE]

Thank you UAE.

[polgara_j]

Installed! Would love to see this allow permissions based on usergroups... otherwise, perfect!

[mmoore5553]

curious i am going to isntall this mod ...do you know if there is a way if they do an album that it is named already and all theycan do is add pics ? if nothing can be done or mod like that ..how much to get that integrated in this mod ...paypal here ?

[orok]

thank you V M.
جزاك الله خير ، ممكن أسألك وين موقعك ؟ uaeforums :)

[HATED]

I love this mod thank you it did tons for me. But my question is can my members still join multiple Social groups? I understand they can only create 1 s.group but then they can join others right?

I have install this product and needed it too! but can you make it so or tell me how to maake it so that my members can only belong to s.group at a time weather created or joined? I will pay for your time as you are likely use a newer version now.
