Hi,

I have looked in the forum but can't find any answers

So here it is:
On Facebook you need to have a normal account to create a Business page or group.
Can I do the same on EasySocial?
I was thinking on creating two profile types, but I'm not expecting my users to logout from their "normal" account and then login to their Business account for writing a status...
They should only login once and have access to their "Business page" or whatever it is

If the only solution for a business account is "Groups" can I then disable messages on group wall from users?

Thanks

Sincerely,
Camilla.
Hello Camilla,

I'm really sorry that delayed of this reply,
Unfortunately we do not have create a Business page feature in current system. But we were planned implement this in the future.

Can you provide us some screenshot which are you referring to "disable messages on group wall from users" ? Please advise.

By the way, group feature is available now.

Thank you for your answer

Ok, I'm looking forward to it
Can you say if it will be smart now to get the users to create a "business profile" beside their normal profile or let them create a group for the business?
I was thinking, when you guys implements business profile/pages will it be most likely that the users will be able to convert from their "business profile" to the new profile/page or from a group?
What's your guess?
Because my site isn't online yet and I would like to make it easy as possible for my users to have their business on the social media too.

About messages on group walls - I would like to group administrators determines whether the group members should have the opportunity to make a status in the group or not. Is it possible?

I know, I meant create a profile type named "Business Profile"...

So it is not possible to disable members permission to submit a stream in the group?

Hello Camilla,

Sorry for late reply to this and misunderstand in your previous reply,
Regarding with your first question :
>> Actually I'm not quite sure understand you here, do you mean that you created 2 profile type :
1. Business Profile
2. Normal Profile
>> After that what you would like to do in "Business Profile" user?

Regarding with your second question :
You can modify on this file -> JoomlaFolder\components\com_easysocial\themes\wireframe\story\default.php
and add this code in this line 12 below -> check my screenshot below.

// Get the group id
$id = JRequest::getInt('id');
// Load the group
$group = FD::group($id);

$view = JRequest::getCmd('view', '');
$viewLayout = JRequest::getCmd('layout', '');
//If this is the group page, it will check this group is it created by current logged in user
if ($view == 'groups' && $viewLayout == 'item' && !$group->isOwner()){
return;
}

Hope this help.

In the future when there will be an opportunity to have some kind of business page/profile or something like that, do you think that it will be possible to convert from insisting profile type or group to the new business page/profile?
So if a user already have created a business profile or group for her or his business maybe they can convert/upgrade to a real business page/profile when it comes?

Hi Camilla,

I am sorry for the late reply.
I believe what my colleague trying to explain is that currently we do not have feature to create business page in EasySocial. However, this feature is still in planning stages and we do not know yet is it possible to convert the existing profile type to a page in EasySocial. If you wish this feature to have this ability, perhaps you can voice this out in our stackideas.com/voices/easysocial so that our developers can see this request.

I hope that I have explained this well.
