Looks very promising, going to test this out on my test board later. :)

The user must have the permission "can_edit_group", this is beeing checked on top of the creation process.

To track this down I need an admin test account on your board. PM me if you want help.

How can I get the messages in my Social Group to appear again?

I released a new version , 1.2.1, this contains a new setting where you can decide if group messaging will be disabled by creating a forum.

For existing groups with forums you will have to re-enable messaging via edit group.

may be add social forums rating ;)

thanks for the update - this is a great hack!

What do you mean exactly? Please describe more.

Mine as well... it isn't a major problem since the majority of my groupleaders are also mods, but at least one non-mod group leader PM'd me that she couldn't create (and I then went in and created it for her).

This may be a newbie question, but can you direct me to where to fix the setting so they can add the forum in vb?

Awesome mod... even with that super minor issue.

I'm checking for the permission "can_edit_group". Every Groupleader should have this permission.

Marius (i've installe this hack) it runs, but i saw that the admin/supermod can't post in a UG's Forum ...

i'm back, maybe i've found an issue:

1) i 'build' a fresh new UG
2) i create a forum for my UG (i'm the moderator) so that's OK
3) if someone join my (just) created UG i can't edit anything onto my UG (i mean forum, UG etc)

also about the Admin permissions: i also checked into 'forum permissions' and i saw that i got all the box checked to 'yes' but when i try to post into that forum i haven't the correct permissions ...

That's right, noone beside the members of a SG can post in such a social forum.

What do you mean you can't edit exactly? Forum is only editable via AdminCP. Name of forum is beeing synced with the name of the SG.

I've read where you will make the forums accessable to just the members in the group? Correct?

Great mod, Thanks!

Yes, a future version will have a permission check for viewing and posting. Currently only posting is disallowed when the user ist not a member of the group.

Does this happen also if you uninstall SocialForums? This modification does not change permissions for editing.

Once this eventually gets implemented I'll be a very happy bunny. :D

You can't rename your SG, it has nothing to do with SF. If you want this feature you'll have to wait for someone else to make a hack for it or ask the vB team to implement it. If you renamed the SG name then I presume that the SF will get out of sync unless the rename of the SG also renames the SF at the same time.

I think renaming is a bad idea anyway.

I've installed the update, by overwriting the old .xml with the new one, and checked my admincp, and disable group messages is set to 'no', but the group messages still do not appear..

By renaming a SG the SF get's renamed also. Sync is done via ForumID, not Name.

Phalynx, were you to disable the "Allow HTML" permission for a newly created social group's forum in the last update?

allowhtml has been changed to 0 in SF1.2.1 - but this counts only for forums created after update. You will need to edit that for existing forums via AdminCP/Forums Manager

Good work and thanks for sharing...

Regarding this:
Permissions
In the current version there are only basic permissions. Only group members can post in such a created forum. Forums of private groups are not protected.

What if we change the plugin @ newreply_start

From

PHP Code:


		
			
if (intval($threadinfo['forumid']) <> 0) {
 $checkpermq =$vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT
 groupid, forumid
 FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroup
 WHERE forumid=".$threadinfo['forumid']);
 if ($vbulletin->db->num_rows($checkpermq) > 0) {
  $checkperm = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($checkpermq);
  $checkgroupq =$vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT
  *
  FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroupmember
  WHERE
  groupid=".$checkperm['groupid']." AND
  userid=".$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']." AND
  type='member'");
  if ($vbulletin->db->num_rows($checkgroupq) == 0) {
   print_no_permission();
  }
 }
}

PHP Code:


		
			
if (intval($threadinfo['forumid']) <> 0) {
 $checkpermq =$vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT
 groupid, forumid, type
 FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroup
 WHERE forumid=".$threadinfo['forumid']);
 if ($vbulletin->db->num_rows($checkpermq) > 0) {
  $checkperm = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($checkpermq);
  $checkgroupq =$vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT
  *
  FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroupmember
  WHERE
  groupid=".$checkperm['groupid']." AND
  userid=".$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']." AND
  type='member'");
  if ($vbulletin->db->num_rows($checkgroupq) == 0 AND $checkperm['type'] !='public') {
   print_no_permission();
  }
 }
}

the plugin @ newthread_start

From

PHP Code:


		
			
if (intval($foruminfo['forumid']) <> 0) {
 $checkpermq =$vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT
 groupid, forumid
 FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroup
 WHERE forumid=".$foruminfo['forumid']);
 if ($vbulletin->db->num_rows($checkpermq) > 0) {
  $checkperm = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($checkpermq);
  $checkgroupq =$vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT
  *
  FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroupmember
  WHERE
  groupid=".$checkperm['groupid']." AND
  userid=".$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']." AND
  type='member'");
  if ($vbulletin->db->num_rows($checkgroupq) == 0) {
   print_no_permission();
  }
 }
}

PHP Code:


		
			
if (intval($foruminfo['forumid']) <> 0) {
 $checkpermq =$vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT
 groupid, forumid, type
 FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroup
 WHERE forumid=".$foruminfo['forumid']);
 if ($vbulletin->db->num_rows($checkpermq) > 0) {
  $checkperm = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($checkpermq);
  $checkgroupq =$vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT
  *
  FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."socialgroupmember
  WHERE
  groupid=".$checkperm['groupid']." AND
  userid=".$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']." AND
  type='member'");
  if ($vbulletin->db->num_rows($checkgroupq) == 0 AND $checkperm['type'] !='public') {
   print_no_permission();
  }
 }
}

I guess that should fix it and allow any user to post in any public social group's forum.

Thanks for trying, but there is nothing that need's to be fixed that way. An open issue is that private groups have readable forums for everyone.

Phalynx,

No rush or anything. But, do you have a time frame as to when you will config the forums to be private? :o

Some groups are created around the topic of an existing forum. In this case it would make no sense to have the group create a forum. Can you please add a solution for this like the admin option to turn forum creation of?

Count in weeks, not days. I have currently a lot to do.

You will have to put a query and assign the existing Forum ID to the Group.

Code:

UPDATE socialgroup SET forumid=YOURFORUMID WHERE groupid=YOURSOCIALGROUPID

Don't forget your DB-prefix.

I would like to allow such social group members to have a discussion page for the group. So, could you please add the function to just turn social forums off for specific social groups?

Just an idea....

How about locking down permissions for all users when the forum is created, and then faking an access mask if the user belongs to x social group? Could that be a way around the permissions thing?

Could be, but there are no hooks by processing permissions. I requested it already, but don't expect it in 3.7 GOLD.

Can you have catogories for groups like in this one:
Groups commune

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...7&d=1158966272

Not in this hack - it does only create forums.

Marius it's possibile to implement a new option which can allows only a specific UG the creation of the forums?

Yes, this is already planned.

For the next version could you set, on creation of the new forums, to have the following settings please:

Index of new posts - Set to no
Show private forum - Set to no
Permissions - Denied to all users except admins, supermods, mods, and registered users

That will prevent at least guests and unregistered users from checking the forums then for the time being.

This is a perfect mod for "private team forums" for sport websites and people who want to have their own private team forum. Can't wait till the private forum part comes available, any idea on an ETA?

Hmmm... in few weeks I think.

Excellent! I *love* this mod -- thanks so much for the work!
