Hi,

1) How do we add or edit the filters in the left column? Are we able to change the order etc as well?

2) How can we change the current order of the different items in left column, e.g. Events, Filters, Group Feeds, etc...

Would really appreciate your help on this.

Thanks,

Andrew

1) How do we add or edit the filters in the left column? Are we able to change the order etc as well?

Please be specific. Which page are you referring to? Dashboard ? Profile ? Groups?


2) How can we change the current order of the different items in left column, e.g. Events, Filters, Group Feeds, etc...

I presume that you are referring to the dashboard? This cannot be configured and you need to edit the theme file to achieve this.

Sorry, referring to the 'Dashboard'.

Please give me details of files etc. And can we do it as 'overrides' in template folder?

1. The filters cannot be customized. They are based on the stream types generated on the stream.

2. You need to edit the file /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/dashboard/default.php

Mark,

1.a) Can we change the 'Order' of the Filters?
1.b) Can we not add any new filters (Global) to the list?

2) Can this be done as an 'override'? (You need to edit the file /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/dashboard/default.php)

Thanks,


Andrew

Appreciate your help.

We really need to change the display order as currently it has 'Articles', and 'Badges' at the top and then 'Blog', etc... This is causing issues as our users are getting confused by this.

We need to change the order in which they are displaying and maybe display a few more before having to click more...

It would be very helpful if we could do something to improve it.
