Hi,

Similar to how Facebook does it (refer attachment), for the convenience of our user community, we want to display the group name that they're in when sharing a status update. Just for additional readability and so they know where the message is headed:-)

How do we accomplish this?

Cheers & have a nice weekend!
hey Juz,

I am sorry that delay of this reply,

Sound like good feature. Unfortunately that was not possible at this point of time.

It would be best if you can submit a feature request regarding this in our voice page -> http://stackideas.com/voices/easysocial , so everyone else could vote for it, the more people request on this, and we will priority consider it.

By the way, thanks for your suggestion.

Hi Arlex,

We're trying to hack the code and implement this ourselves. But getting stuck somewhat. So we need to edit code for 3 files:

1) Once a user logs in, gets to their dashboard. Main stream/ story opens up.

2) From the dashboard, user can select the group (link on left). Group stream/story open up.

3) Once the stream opens in #2, user can further click on the group to be inside the group stream.

For the above 3 scenarios, what variable is used to identify which stream is currently open. I believe #2 is somewhat tricky as the user is still on the main dashboard but has selected a group from link on left pane and consequently group stream opens up. Is we can get some pointers to the variable and values for 3 scenarios, we can begin our core hack.

Meanwhile, will also add to voices and perhaps this feature sees the light of day!

Cheers!
Juz

Hey Juz,

I am really sorry that delay of this reply,

We use the `type` identify the stream, you can take a look of this file -> JoomlaFolder\components\com_easysocial\controllers\dashboard.php.

Thanks for submit feature request on voice page.
