I sincerely think it was not an error. I just think that Dave got sick of the criticisms. But, when you handle things like they have, then you need to anticipate the criticisms. There is a history to this whole thing and no we have not forgotten.
If Elgg is going to move in a positive direction, then the developers need to release the best, strongest code possible and stop the whole commercial push. Elgg is not at a point where we can get all commercial.
I am not asking for much here... just some instructions. I used elgg < 1.0 and was able to find plenty of info to do everything I needed back in the day. Where is all the doucmentation.? The Wiki seems to be, ummmm, limited. Is there even a link to a pdf or any style of documentation.
>where users who are joining go to view a list of all users
I am sure I saw a way to do this ... try the mailing lists
>Also what is a widget and how to add it
A widget is like a hoodacky, a gizmo, a thingy, a portlet ....
If you go to your profile on community.elgg.org, and click edit page (top right of the page) you will get a list of widgets you can add to your profile, such as the widget that lists all the groups ... such as the widget that displays all your freinds.
I just finished a bunch of translations into spanish... and now I dont know how to release it. I suppose it should be on the spanish group, but... where is it??? :'(
I guess Elgg decided to strip down the home page. No new users, no wire posts and no comments.
This is a little worrying. Surely a community needs to communicate - even though some of the comments may be a bit critical?
Whre are the groups
This is a social network, why admins are not able to display what happens with the groups and the wire feeds?
Or is this community and the elgg script going down?
I thing this is a error. I can not believe that the Elgg team has decided something like this.
I hope that they fixes this situation, otherwise, there is no sense to continue using the "community" because is not a community.
Patience people please?
Unlike other open source projects elgg does not have large teams of people. It takes time to get to that level.
Elgg is at a point where people need to be patient, problems may occur and not be fixed immediately.
Can we please give the developers some time.
no discussions! no party! patience!
byebye
I agree with Ivan... a little patience is good.
but I miss the groups!

I think, there are a lot of possibilities.
I reported some security bugs in the groups-plugin. So the developers hide the link.
But i think theres not a 'community way' to do this, without a message to the users.
lets see what happend next, but now we need to wait patiently., more power to elgg team! cheers!

There is probably a more elegant explaination ...
> How do you add plugins
See http://community.elgg.org/pg/pages/view/34/ (but there is not a lot more there)
"To install a plugin, simply copy the plugin's folder to the "mod" directory in your Elgg install.
You must then activate the plugin:

The mailing lists are a good place to start.
Developer list
http://groups.google.com/group/elgg-development
User List

*Note: These lists are searchable!

Yeah - it is a bit limited. But it will grow
