Hello,

After creating categories, groups, menu... i encounter some troubles :

A/
On the /groups page : there is 17 groups but screen say : "no groups" !
http://awesomescreenshot.com/0d54s2iub8
On /category page : there is 6 groups but screen say : "no groups" !
http://awesomescreenshot.com/0614s2j776

B/
I have 2 different king of url for a categorie that have a menu link created
http://awesomescreenshot.com/0b44s2jt94
The link in category list (ES sidebar) seems not to refer to menu link like others links
3 = .../groupes/5-asie-destinations-voyages
2 = .../destinations-voyages/asie
1 = .../destinations-voyages/asie

Don't know if i am clear enough, hope the screenshot will help


Thanks in advance for your help

Hi loic,

This is the temporary fix, can you download my attachment file and replace in JoomlaFolder\administrator\components\com_easysocial\models\groups.php
And see how it goes.

Hello,
thanks arlex that solve the A/ issue
do i need to keep this fix or will it be included in next release ?

for B/ "issue"
no changes... i still have 2 different url !!
but i start to understand why... maybe it's because i refer to 2 different pages ?
a "group category list" : .../groupes/5-asie-destinations-voyages
and a "group category layout" : .../destinations-voyages/asie

menu link can be created for "group category layout" (that is what i have already done)
but i couldn't found how to create a menu link for "group category list"

How can i do that ?? or is it possible to no use group category layout page ??
That make a lot of pages... confusing for user

thanks in advance
Loïc

Hello Ioic,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

I can't seems to replicate the issue in my local. When I click on the "view category" it have the same url as group category layout menu item url and not duplicate url. Perhaps you can provide us with Joomla backend and FTP access so we can check on the issue directly?

Oh by the way the fix that my colleague provided in his previous reply will be included in the next release

Hello Loic,

I've inspected your group page site and also the group listing page from easysocial. Actually the page that you mentioned is not the same page. One is to display the listing of group category in general (quick view), http://screen.stackideas.com/2015-04-03_1701.png . The other one is the detailed page of the specific category that you have set, http://screen.stackideas.com/2015-04-03_1701_001.png .

When I click on "Voir La Categorie" from here, /groupes/5-asie-destinations-voyages it actually redirect with the same url with your /destinations-voyages/asie. Refer my screenshot here, http://screen.stackideas.com/2015-04-03_1659.png

Hope these can clarify the issue

Hello,

Yes i understand

What is surprising me is the different from one url to the other one
../groupes/5-asie-destinations-voyages
.../destinations-voyages/asie


usually, url are closed
example for users :
http://easysocial.stackideas.com/connect
and then :
http://easysocial.stackideas.com/connect/withphotos
http://easysocial.stackideas.com/connect/online


What i was expecting was something like :
.../destinations-voyages/asie
.../destinations-voyages/asie/dashboard


It make sense no ???



One more question :

how to create a menu link to group category in general (quick view), http://screen.stackideas.com/2015-04-03_1701.png ???

Unfortunately easysocial does not have this kind of menu item to display the category in general. However you can try to use menu item that point to the specific url, /groupes/5-asie-destinations-voyages by using System link menu item, http://screen.stackideas.com/2015-04-03_2109.png

Umhh creating url menu link will have no effect on url rewriting...

Why didnt you take care of that during dev ? Why clean url for users, friends, profil, albums... urls (See my example in previous post) and not for groups categories urls ???

Stackideas usualy deliver clean and finished components... I am a bit surprised and disapointed

Any chances to have a fix for that in next release ??

Hello loic,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. What you are asking does not make any sense at all Both these urls serves a different purpose altogether. This is why the url links are entirely different. What you are asking is like "Why did windows invented the start button on the bottom left and not at the bottom right of the screen?"
