Hey Mark, Jason,

In 1.2 I had a modification that got erased with update and that I didn't save heuuu yeah i know ...

I wanted the es-story to show only in groups and not in profile and I did it with and if equals a constant like

if (view == profile) {
display theme/profile...

else if (view == group) {

I think it was with one of the constant you had enable back then... I don't know if it is still the same thing. Anyway, any other implemented way so I can know what view am I in would be welcome.

Thanks

Alex

EDIT: getCluster == 3 or getClusterType == 'group' ?!?!
Hi,

There is a bug in the code of:

/components/com_easysocial/controllers/groups.php line 1197, in which it missed out a check to check for superadmin. Change the line to:

if( $group->isMember() || $this->my->isSiteAdmin() )

Hello Alex,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply as now is a weekend for us here in our country

I wanted the es-story to show only in groups and not in profile ..


Do you mean you only what to display the story update form when in groups page? If yes, then you can edit this theme file 'JOOMLA/components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/stream/default.php' and look for below code at line 31:



<?php if (!empty($story)) { echo $story->html(); } ?>


and replace the above with:



<?php if (!empty($story) && $view != 'profile') { echo $story->html(); } ?>


Let me know if the above work for you or not.

Hope this help and have a nice day!

Hey Sam,

Thanks, this is the good file and good line. However the code itself doesn't work. I wanted: <?php if (!empty($story) && $view == 'group') { echo $story->html(); } ?>

I have tried GROUP and GROUPS and both doesn't work... however, this disable in DASHBOARD and in PROFILE.

Either i didn't get the view correct or I think this will be through another variable. ?

An idea ?

Alex

Hi Alex,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

Ah, please try with 'groups' ( all lower case ) and let me know if this work for you or not.



<?php if (!empty($story) && $view == 'groups') { echo $story->html(); } ?>


By the way, if you do the above, that will disable the story update form in your dashboard page. Do you want to disable the story form in your dashboard page as well?

Please advise.

Hope this help and have a nice day!

Oh Sam,

I wasn't that dumb, in fact I found that it's a bug.

My previous code with view as GROUPS work only IF settings-group-group default display: timeline

When the setting is set to INFO, the ES-STORY doesn't load at all when you switch the INFO back to TIMELINE. The AJAX call doesn't load the ES-STORY by itself!!!

Can you reproduce on your own ?

Hey Sam,

Just saw your comments. The <?php if (!empty($story) && $view == 'groups') { echo $story->html(); } ?>

Regarding the above, I cannot replicate in my local instance. Please see http://screen.stackideas.com/2014-11-10_1258.swf

The code worked correctly. http://screen.stackideas.com/2014-11-10_1301.png

If you want, you can pass me your Joomla backend access and your FTP account and I will take a look at your issue again.
Please advise.
