@hottie95 http://community.elgg.org/pg/pages/view/51066/
excellent plugin. the only problem noticed so far is the ads, if you select yes and save then come back to settings it shows as no but still shows ads. also the textfields cannot replace to my ads. so i changed it in the files :)
u need to run upgrade.php for the change to take place....!!!
thankyou Goofbucket.
@hottie95.. only thing that can be accesed when not logged in is what is set to public. in you admin you can set default to logged in users and nothing will be viewable unless you are logged iin.
@sam1.. i have noticed that with the select boxes for the ads, ill look in to this some more. as for not being able to replace the text in the boxes.. I have no issue with it on my test site, i can enter anything i want in the text box weather it be ad code, html, just text it shows up on the dashboard as it should.
what version of elgg are you running? I think it may have something to do with tinymce but not 100% sure yet. a little more info about your setup would be helpful.
Ahhh, gotcha that works well. thanks for all of your help. I have searched this site over and I cannot find a river widget and a miniprofile widget that are stand alone items. Although I love your river dash, I want my group to be able to customize the dashboard as they would like it. If you have a copy could you send them to me @ ffrinfo@yahoo.com.
Thanks for everything and keep up the good work on here. By the way do you have a donate link somewhere on here. Would be happy to help fund your work on this project.
Hi,
When I try to add a link, I get this error: Form is missing token or ts fields
Any ideas? Must be something I've done wrong I would assume. Also any idea on when vanillaforum will be working? Just wondering.
Thanks,
Rene
Do I have to install the three plugins to make the Riverdashboard work?
@woodward.. no you do not. riverdashboard will function by itself. the other plugins fusion pack adds a jquery library for some tooltips that i use on the dashboard and in the elggchat. so you could use the fusion pack if you want the tooltips and you dont need the elggchat unless you want it.
Cheers for the info. I'll give them a whirl now.
Got the three working perfectly! Took a number of tries due to my own errors but it's finally up and running. Like the chat... just don't have anyone online at the moment to try it! :P
How can I make this work with the darkelgg theme? I saw your plugin in another site and it looks just like what Elgg has been missing for so long!
A screenshot of my messy dashboard:
Oops! That's a bad screenshot!
@sem
open css in darkelgg folder and make these changes.
#maincontent_wrap{
width:707px;
float:left;
}
#col_one {
float:left;
width:210px;
}
#col_two {
float:right;
width:489px;
}
#col_three {
float:right;
width:245px;
}
I am sorry, chambo67. Which css in darkelgg (the main css or the dashboard one?) and where exactly do I make that change. ( I am on a live site and I would like to get it right). Thanks in advance.
@sem.. those edits chambo mentioned will not work! that css is for the old layout. if you tell me your site, i can take a look at it.
Here . Thanks in advance.
@sem... cannot get to a registration page so i can get in and see the dashboard. can you set up an account for me and message me the login details.
@sem... ok tell me what you want to fix.. send me a msg on your site.
Hey fusion, how do I make the riverdash a page within the site, with a link in the top drop down menu that says river. i would like to keep my default dashboard and make this another page. is it possible.
Thanks in advance
Hottie
@hottie.. this is designed to replace the dashboard. in settings if you set the first option to no then you will have a link for activity which will be this dashboard. of course you could make the link read whatever you want line 26 in start.php
Thanks you are awesome!!!!
Fusion, using the settings in the admin tools, I have successfully added amazon ads. However, google adsense does not show. Any idea?
