[TH] Social Groups [Deleted]

[Jon W]

@Waindigo, whether somehow the creators of the Social Forum do subsection?

Not currently. Please PM me if you'd be interested in contributing towards this.

Is there a way to import groups from other similar (paid) social group addons.

 

[Jon W]

There is an importer for an older version of Social Groups for XenForo. We are always happy to provide other importers but so far no-one has contributed towards any others.

Is there any way to limit the number of forums a social group creator can make? If not, can you add one?

Yes, there is a permission which can limit the number.

Waindigo updated Social Groups by Waindigo with a new update entry:

Version 1.1.3 released

New features:

• Added option to "Always alert users". Enabling this option will override a user's privacy settings and always send alerts to users who are watching a thread in a social forum.

Read the rest of this update entry...

For quite a while I've considered the idea of converting our Regional sub-forums into Social Groups - is there any way to convert sub-forums and posts within those forums to Social Groups posts with this plugin?

 

[|Jordan|]

Yes, there is a permission which can limit the number.

Where is that permission located? I wasn't able to find it.

Money. I got paid to add it. I think this is a feature in one of the other social groups add-ons or something.

I'm having problems with group permissions, now any member (who doesn't belong to the group) can post in any group (moderated or not)... I have installed the addon Social Permissions, but it seems that this no longer working.

I created a social forum (followed all the steps in "Setting up your first Social Category") and the new social forum isn't being displayed in the parent social group node. How do i fix this?

Try using the 'Analyze Permissions' tool in the Admin Control Panel.

I noticed, that class Waindigo_SocialGroups_Extend_XenForo_Model_Alert is not loaded because respected code event listener is not added in XenForo control panel. load_class_model should be added with a hint "XenForo_Model_Alert", pointing to Waindigo_SocialGroups_Listener_LoadClass::loadClassModel

It is there. It just uses the load_class event type, rather than load_class_model. This is intentional because the add-on is backwards compatible, and we want to load the code event listener in a different way in XenForo 1.1 and below.

 

[Vladislav Rastrusny]

On my test 1.3 forum all the listeners, marked with "(For XenForo 1.1 and below)" are disabled after installation. And among "1.2 and above" ones there is no listener with a hint ("XenForo_Model_Alert"). I caught this because my client told me she has errors when posting on forum. The error in the log said

ErrorException: Fatal Error: Call to undefined method XenForo_Model_Alert::setSocialForumAlertOverride() - library/Waindigo/SocialGroups/Extend/XenForo/Model/ThreadWatch.php:81

Seems to be a conflict with another add-on. Try disabling some of your other add-ons and see what makes this error disappear. If you can let me know which add-on it is, I will try and work around the problem (or let you know how to fix that add-on).

Found it! It is TMDB Movie Thread Starter 2.0.8 that is conflicting. Thanks for your help!

Also, http://xenforo.com/community/resources/tmdb-tv-thread-starter.3334/ causes the same error.

Has there been a work around for this? Either on this end, or with @Snog ?
