Yesterday I bought Easysocial and startet to test it. I installed it on my live-website which is driven by JomSocial and migrated all data. I didn´t publish EasySocial for public yet, all users are still on JomSocial. I created an Admin-Only link to be able to play around with EasySocial with Real Data in a hidden place.
What should I say? The software is as expected from Stackideas: Great, Easy to use, Clean and clear, really nice! I can´t wait to also switch for my users.
Unfortunatelly, also as expected, there are some tasks that are not easy. Mostly it´s about the layout. It seems nearly impossible to me to get EasySocial integrated with my template in the moment. So here is my first "list of challenges" that I have. I try to explain them all in a way, that might be usefull for other users and for the stackideas-developement. There is no order in the challenges, I write them just in the order they come to my mind.
- past Events
There is no way to hide past events. As I migrated from JomSocial, I have events that are a year old ... but still showing up. And they are showing up on the top of the events-list, because there is no way to change the order. How can I hide past events?
- Dashboard at the frontend
The dashboard looks TOTALLY different then the rest of my website. And I can´t find a way to change the dashboard. How can I for example move parts to the other side? For example the "Online Users"-Box is left. I like to have it on the right side, on the top. But I can´t find it as a module. I only find the "external" module, but that´s not what I want to do. I simply want to move the User-Online-List that is on the dashboard in a different position. (and other modules for sure, the User-Online is just an example)
- Navigation-Bar
The navigation-bar is one of the biggest things destructing my layout. It has a different style, a different behaviour and a different colour then the rest of my page. When I publish the Navigation-Bar on all pages, it seems like no page looks "nice" anymore. When I unpublish it, I have no navigation through the whole page.
I would like to get the drop-Down and the three notification-Items and the home-button of the navigation-bar to a complete different place. Maybe it can be shown in my main navigation. And I need to change the style. How can this be done?
All the best, Julian!
