vb.org Archive - Major Additions - GRPS: Groups Commune 2.0.x

right now when you look at a group, you have to click the group management drop down list to find the join group link. I'd like to see a 'join this group' link right next to the group name or group description, for easier joining, esp. for newbies that look around and then pm me that they dont know how to join a group...

I thought the same....this little chuck of code will let you put a link to Join, or Leave the group wherever you want on the page.

In template: groups_display_main

<a href="membership.php?$session[sessionurl]g=$groupid" accesskey="p"><if condition="!$show[grps_wordjoin]">$vbphrase[grps_join]<else />$vbphrase[grps_leave]</if> $grps_showgroup[title]</a>

I've heavily modified my tempates so I can't give you what to look for in your template and where to insert it. But here is a screenshot of where I put mine, just below the Group Tools link in the blue header.

Gee...I guess this is my first official hack :)

I like the layout change, cfspinner. I was looking at doing something similar, but so far, I've been too lazy to figure out how.

Thanks. Not hard really. Just have to figure out what you want your layout like. Really just took parts from other templates that I liked and added things that i felt were missing. I added the owners avatar and linked the username to the users vb profile and added links to the owners photo gallery and blog.

Things tie in better that way and it feels more tightly integrated with vbulletin and other plugins.

Just need to figure out how to keep the member list from displaying more than 4 members in each row.

Any chance I could convince you to post your template? I'm assuming it's the groups_main_display, right?

Well I've been spending several hours trying to set the Groups to use a Custom Postbit template with no success :( Anyone have any idea? Main reason I want to do this is my Postbits for the forums are heavily customized .. and unfortunately there are several things that are "broken" when used by the Groups.

What is broken when used by groups? Mine is customized also and it has no problems when used in groups.

I use some Scripts I have purchased. I actually just want a plain postbit for the groups anyways.

Does anyone know if posts make withing the groups get added to the post count for VB? I would hate to have two seperate post counts.
