Hello,

Is it possible to know which file.php builds the contents of a filter ? Clearly, the file that tells the filter "Everyone" to go and find a particular publication to display it in the stream.

We would like to create a filter that merges "Me and Friends" and "Following". A new default filter that shows the user's posts, friends, groups, pages, and events.

Indeed, the "Everyone" filter can annoy users who do not want to see the posts of unknown users.

At the same time, the filters "Me and Friends" and "Following" do not have enough publications.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards.
Hm I would say this will be very difficult part to add a custom field which merge with "Me and Friends" and "Following".

It will involved quite number of php and js files in order to achieve this and there do not have any template override method can override all of your changes because it involved need to customize it in the Easysocial core function file, even Javascript part you need to manually compile it.

By the way, these are the files which render that timeline filter but of course when you see those function call, it will link to another PHP file as well, it quite a lots I can't list you one by one.

JoomlaFolder/components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/stream/filter/user.php
JoomlaFolder/components/com_easysocial/views/dashboard/view.html.php (display function)
JoomlaFolder/components/com_easysocial/controllers/dashboard.php (getStream function)
JoomlaFolder/media/com_easysocial/scripts/site/dashboard/default.js
