No, thy dont show too. Must the Discussions have a certain number of Posts, before they were Converted?

Phalynx 05-07-2009 02:03 PM

Please provide me a temporary admin account, if you need further assistance

Adromir 05-07-2009 02:15 PM

Thanks for your help, but its not that important to the moment, because there arent many active users in my forum yet.

But it won't work in another way than socialforums? Just the way of presenting would be a bit different - like showing a social forum inside a members profile...

It's possible using the "profile_start hook" to allow regular members to ignore forum leaders (moderators).

Setting $vbulletin->options['ignoremods'] = true; in the vbplugin has the same effect as enabling the "Allow users to add Moderators and Administrators to their ignore list?" option. This capability allows one to whitelist only a specific list of moderators to be exempt from ignoring instead of allowing all moderators to be ignored. I haven't fully tested but the testing I've done suggests this is certainly possible so it isn't the only option to allow regular members to ignore forum leaders.

Hi Guys,

I'm just wondering if there is a way (or a mod) where when a user creates a social group, they are placed into a user group? Basically for my new project I'm focusing heavily on the Social Aspects, and I would like all group leaders to be able to view a special "Group Leaders" forum.

Any help/direction is appreciated

Cheers,
LTC

Hi,
an idea for a next release is to have the ability to create a social group forum with sub forums.
my members have been asking for that if it is possible to have multiple forums within a social group (maxxed by setting)

Spikey47 07-16-2009 06:42 PM

I have never set up a bb system before... what does "import the product" mean in installation steps?

Nice idea, yes. I'm also missing this.

You need to import it via AdminCP, Plugins.

reddyink 07-25-2009 01:17 PM

I have easyforms, rating system installed on the forum.

Will they automatically transfered to Socail Groups?

Thanks

Phalynx 07-27-2009 09:30 AM

No, with this hack a group owner can create a forum for his group.

If the group owner creates a forum, I am assuming all the functionality of the threads, posts get into this. That means, VbExperience, customer fields etc should come to this group forum right?

thanks

Phalynx 07-27-2009 11:33 AM

Right. It just creates standard forums, that can be also edited in the AdminCP like any other forums.

Update to 2.1.0 has been released. This release contains an improved converter for Social Group Discussions into Forums.

Changelog:
- Social Groups without a forum are listed in AdminCP and can be automatically converted with few clicks.
- Fixed errors converting bigger discussions
- Minor changes and fixes

Keesa 08-11-2009 11:37 AM

Thank you, I am going to try this now!!!!

punchbowl 08-11-2009 12:15 PM

To get rid of a forum and group can I just delete both or is there something else I should do too?

tia

Phalynx 08-11-2009 12:20 PM

That's all.

punchbowl 08-11-2009 12:29 PM

cheers!

Freesteyelz 08-18-2009 08:02 PM

This mod makes up for what group discussions lack. Great mod, Phalynx. :)


I'm testing this mod and I was curious about the query below. We can run a query to remove a forum from a GroupID:

Code:

UPDATE socialgroup SET forumid=0 WHERE groupid=%GROUPID%

1) Can we use that same query to assign an existing forum to a Social Group by adding the ForumID and GroupID? So let's say I have forum A (ID 15) and created a Social Group (ID 2). Can I do this?

Code:

UPDATE socialgroup SET forumid=15 WHERE groupid=2

2) If I wanted to disassociate a forum from a Social Group can I transfer or convert the forum threads/posts to the Social Group Discussions? Right now we can convert Social Group Discussions into forum threads and posts. Having the option to do the opposite would come in handy too. :)

Verionia 08-18-2009 11:23 PM

Isnt this implemented already in v3.83?

Yes, you can use that query to do it. You will have also to manually edit/delete moderators of this forum.

Awesome. :D

I'm not sure if you answered it but is there a way to convert forum threads and posts back to Social Group Discussions (in case I no longer want the forum to be associated with the Social Group)?

Phalynx 08-20-2009 07:38 AM

There is a modification here at vb.org that can do that. You will have to search for it, as I don't know the exact name.

Freesteyelz 08-20-2009 11:18 AM

The mod is called Move Threads from Forums to Social Groups. That's close to what I'm looking for but threads need to move one-by-one manually. I read that it might be due to the way Social Discussions were designed.

moonclamp 08-23-2009 06:25 AM

What happens to the forums if this mod gets uninstalled? Do they revert back to being social discussions, or do they remain as forums?

Freesteyelz 08-23-2009 06:43 AM

They remain as forums. You'll need to manually delete the forums if anything.

Tettinntil 09-13-2009 08:58 PM

Installed and so far so good - beautiful that I can fix things in the CP. My first install after I bought out my former partner and this was fun :D Thank you!!!

MrEyes 09-22-2009 01:55 PM

A curious problem of sorts.

I have downloaded and installed the mod onto a absolutely clean vBulletin 3.8.4 install (i.e. no mods, template hacks etc).

I then created a group and then clicked the link to create a forum for the group, this presented me with the following message on a standard VB redirection page:

"Cannot create forum!"

However, the forum is created and everything seems to work exactly as it should.

Having briefly delved into the code it seems that the issue is something to do with these lines in the

Code:

if (CreateForum($group))
{
        eval(print_standard_redirect('sf_invalid_forum', true, true));
}
else
{
        eval(print_standard_redirect('successfully_edited_group', true, true));
}

Having checked the CreateForum function in functions_socialforums.php it would seem that this returns true if the create is successful and false if not. So the syntax of the code above should be:

Code:

if (!CreateForum($group))
...
...

I have tested this on my test install and this seems to resolve the issue, but I am posting here just incase I am missing something.

Phalynx 09-22-2009 04:29 PM

Seems really a like a bug. Thanks for showing it.

saikat 10-05-2009 08:43 PM

Hi Phalynx,

First of all , thanks for the awsome code. Worked like a charm. Heres my question:

I would like the group forums to be visible to everyone, but they should only be able to post/reply in the forum if they have joined the group, else the "Reply/Quote" button should point them to the "Join" page for the group.

Is this something that is doable by your code? Any pointers?

thanks,
saikat

franvsl 10-11-2009 10:49 PM

Hi!!

Congratulations for that great job.

My question is about the box "The forum where all new created social forums are attached to." in the socialforums settings

What am I supposed to write there? A number (if so, which number??) or the name of the parent forum?. I tried both, and when I click the button "Create Forum" I get an error saying "Invalid parent forum specified. Check settings"

Thank you!

Check usergroup permissions.

You must enter the ID of the parent Forum.

franvsl 10-12-2009 08:29 PM

Thanks!

Now I can create the forums, but when it is done, I can't see the forum in the group. The forum is created, and I can see it in the forums list, but it doesn't appear in the social group:

http://www.vs-rtc.com/foro/group.php?groupid=1

Any ideas?

Please check permissions and also if you modified a group-related template.

l_amhed 10-13-2009 11:33 AM

Thanks for this usefull and killer hack !

I've got some minor errors :

- Some special characters are not well displayed, such as à é ü ' (there is a \ just before them)
- The sticky threads are not displayed correctly on top of the threads listing.
