Hi,
How can I limit posts or msgs to a specific category of groups.
I need to be able to target all gorups in one specific category. If this is not available and I can't understand why it wouldn't be, what is involved in adding such a feature?
Hi there

Unfortunately it is not possible to achieve this yet in EasySocial. but we only control those media options only(audios,videos and etc).

Perhaps it would be best if you can submit a feature request regarding this issues by creating a new ticket on the forums and set it to "Feature Request" so that everyone else could vote for it. We will prioritize this feature during the development process for the next major version of EasySocial if there are more people request on this.

Thanks for your understanding.

OK, disappointed to hear that, thought the custom option would include Categories.

Can you provide a quote to provide this, I can't wait for a forum vote.

Hi there,

Having said that, if you require us to perform the customisation for you, you can always request for a quote from us at https://crm.stackideas.com and select "Customisations" . Our sales person would be glad to send you a quote for the customisations that you have requested.

Please advice.

As an aside to my request.
Is there any plan to be able to nest groups in EasySocial 3? so for example you could make smaller groups within a parent group.
I know that would add alot of complexity but would be extremely useful feature.

Hi there,

May i know that you wanted to make a child groups based on parent groups? If yes, currently it is also not possible to achieve this but we do have configuration for groups' categories(child categories and parent categories). Do request them as maybe this might be a good addition to our products and we will see how others reacted on this.

Thanks for your understanding.

You already have categories but you can't do anything with categories other than workflows and ACLs.

Sorry I don't understand your response.

Hi there,

Sorry for my confusion on my explanation on above reply. Currently, for groups itself, we dont have parent/child groups. We only have parent/child for groups categories.

Please advice.

Aha, yes, that is useful for structure but even more so if they could be targeted for "socialising/messaging". I do feel it is a missing feature from EasySocial.

What about pages? could I somehow use pages feature to create my desired outcome?

Hi there,

Currently, events/pages/groups are created and using same structures. All three cannot achieve them currently.
