Hello and tanks in advance,
I have to implement a rss feed that shows the publications in the groups created using easysocial and I'm struggling finding how are organized the tables in the DB. I read how to retrieve the streams but I couldn't find info about which "context" exists so I can query the DB to fetch the publications.

Thank you again.
Hey Juan,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is actually a public day off for us here. Hm, we don't actually have a way to output RSS feed of a group but I personally think this is a good idea. I will add this in the next release of EasySocial.

At the mean time, what you could do is to duplicate the file /components/com_easysocial/views/dashboard/view.feed.php and place it in /components/com_easysocial/views/groups/ .

Then, customize the view.feed.php file for the groups view and you need to pass these arguments to the stream library's "get" method,


$options = array('clusterId' => $group->id, 'clusterType' => SOCIAL_TYPE_GROUP, 'nosticky' => true);


If you are not a coder, I would suggest you to wait for the next release as we'll add this into EasySocial

Thank you Mark, as always you give an awesome support!
I'm wondering if you can send me the edited file (groups/view.feed.php) or maybe an estimate release date?

Thank you again, we really appreciate your work.
Warm regards,
Juan

Hey Juan,

My hands are pretty tied right now with just the support and I don't even have enough time to work on development yet I can only start development once I clear off all the support and we will probably release another update next week
