Plugin Development

Group members: 2874
Description:
This group is for discussing how to create plugins. We talk about what plugins we are working on, ask advice on how to do things the Elgg way, and share resources related to PHP, jQuery, JavaScript HTML, and CSS.
Elgg's documentation is available at this wiki: http://docs.elgg.org/. There is also an API reference generated from the code at http://reference.elgg.org/. Also, if you are serious about developing with Elgg, be sure to join the Elgg developers google group: http://groups.google.com/group/elgg-development
If you are looking for help on theming Elgg, be sure to join to the Theme development group.

You need to override some files in your custom plugin:
\views\default\object\comment.php \views\default\object\elements\full.php \views\default\object\elements\full\header.php \views\default\object\elements\summary.php \views\default\object\elements\summary\metadata.phpEdit \mod\your_plugin\views\default\object\comment.php to provide the new views:
\mod\your_plugin\views\default\object\comment\elements\full.php \mod\your_plugin\views\default\object\comment\elements\summary.php
Edit these new views to provide another new views:
\mod\your_plugin\views\default\object\comment\elements\full\header.php \mod\your_plugin\views\default\object\comment\elements\summary\metadata.php
Your goal is to extract elgg_view_menu('social') from
\mod\your_plugin\views\default\object\comment\elements\summary\metadata.php
and place it in a new view, e.g.
\mod\your_plugin\views\default\object\comment\elements\summary\social.php
Then you can place this social.php view to \mod\your_plugin\views\default\object\comment.php under $params['content'] for:echo elgg_view('object/comment/elements/full', $params);and
echo elgg_view('object/comment/elements/summary', $params);Some CSS magic then and done ;)
Thanks for the help. It worked :)
