Hi,
I am looking to move to EasySocial for one of my websites as particularly interested in the Groups/Tasklist and File sharing structure which better meet this particular website's needs - as its less of a social site and more about collaboration.
I have a couple of questions.
1.
I need to be able to create Groups that are not only private, but invisible to other users - unless they belong in that group (in Jomsocial this was only possible with a hack - but it did the trick).
The reason for needing to hide from view is that members can have up to 30 private groups (projects on the go) so if lots of members had similar numbers it becomes too unwieldy to view/manage. Ideally there should be 3 options: Public, Private, and finally Private/Invisible so people join by invitation only and the group is only visible to them. The latter is only possible withJomsocial only with a simple hack, and they are not looking to add the invisible feature to Private Groups in the future.
2. Is it possible to create a standard template task list that members can add automatically? My members have a set of procedures they need to collaboratively work through for every project. Rather than create the same things from scratch, is there any way of adding a template of milestones and task lists automatically from one that already exists?
3. Within the Groups, are all associated events, blogs, documents private to its members only?
I look forward to hearing from you
Mel
