The groups import from vB4 seams to have some big issues. Groups are there, threads are there, posts are not, group members and leaders are not. The import ran through without an error. Hoping this get resolved.
Bugs fixed
New features
- The Groups Index page looked a little funny in chrome (the height was not being adjusted correctly)
- When members were auto-kicked of the group due to inactivity, if the group was left without a leader a new one was not being selected.
- Soft-deleting of posts is here. Previously there was an edit option, but not delete option. Deleting the first post of a thread deletes the whole thread. No restore functionality yet.
- Likes....
Like/Unlike is in the most recent updateStill waiting Like/Unlike feature for group thread and posts.. I have a question, why are social group pictures so small? Thanks..
I need to sit down and get some time with vb4 first. I never tested it with vb4 so I wouldn't advertise it as working My forum was 3.8 when I did the migration and I can guarantee it works flawlessly with that version. I'll give this a little priority, I am hoping the database structure is not that different and it will be easy to fix.The groups import from vB4 seams to have some big issues.

No. They do receive an alert if somebody answers in a thread they have participated in, thoughDo users receive alerts when a new thread is created in a group they’re a member of and if so is there an option to turn this on and off?
There is a separate permission that you can give to your moderators if you want them to moderate the groups. By default, only the group leaders can moderateCan site mods moderate the groups or just group admins?
NoCan I have each group be listed as a forum in the forum view?
I will call that by design. Otherwise it is just a regular forum. I plan to do some short albums integration, though, but no attachments in the posts.Lack of uploading of files/pictures
I just updated thisNo like button
Not by default. You can give them permissions if you want.Can forum mods or group mods delete posts?
They can, actuallyIt would be good if users could also self-delete their own posts.
The UI could use some work, I agree, but everything is template-based so you can chage it to whatever you want.Formatting of group avatar so it’s square and inline as various width images look weird.
Recently fixedThere seems to be formatting issues on this example where the group list overruns the bottom breadcrumb (in Chrome)
I am trying not to take it to the point that it integrates every single feature in XF. At that point, you might as well just create a forum for each group. My idea of groups is that they should be a little more minimalistic.Will it integrate polls, upload functionality – all the other cool standard XF thread features eventually?
Great to have social groups - one of my biggest sites relies on such a feature. Some questions before I buy:
Do you intend to support the addon for a long time? Or is it coded in such a way that it is unlikely that there will break things when a new Xenforo release comes out?
Do you use phrases so I can translate it?
I left that as a usergroup permission, so it can be easily offered as a premium member feature (something along, regular members can select 1 group, premium members can select 3, or so). And some people may just want to leave it to select all of them.nvm i see it in usergroup permissions.
yeah and if you did that it would take forever just to scroll to the next post. How can we make the text smaller to fit in more groups in a smaller space OR just put only the group image there and have the name of the group show up when you over it?I left that as a usergroup permission, so it can be easily offered as a premium member feature (something along, regular members can select 1 group, premium members can select 3, or so).

I know if I left it at no limit some members on my site would soon have 200 groups.

<a href="{xen:link cz-groups/group-detail, $group}">
{xen:helper groupicon, $group}
<xen:if is="{$xenOptions.cz_groups_allow_color}">
<span style="color: {$group.group_color}">{$group.group_name}</span>
<xen:else />

I don't know if you have used www.orkut.com .. Please check the UI of groups there (groups are called community there). The group image is beautifully placed and the description of the group too. If possible i will try to upload a screenshot tonight.The social group pictures could be bigger, I have been meaning to include a setting for that. Initially they are meant to be displayed below the avatar, that's why they could not be bigger. That does not make sense if people display them elsewhere

That prefix was chosen in the event that XenForo (or somebody else) released a groups add-on or some other functionality that had the prefix "groups". To avoid collisions, it is extremely unlikely that somebody chooses that particular one.I can't understand why link formats site.com/cz-groups/
