nice..
Thanks @emdagon, i've been waiting for something like this.
@lord55 I have a life, you know? =P
Thanks!
@lord: This is like a great 1,i'll try it
Wow, nice!
I try to select my mother from the list in my profile but can't find the name in the list that the plugin showme and my mother is in my friend list. How can I fix this?
Thanks
@roy, can be a bug, did you define your custom gender in the plugin configuration? had your mother defined her gender in the profile (the plugin reads metadata).
Let me know if you find the problem!
Cheers!
Maybe I do something wrong because I don't know exactly what I have to insert in configuration for now I write
family settings
For example: "sex" if $user->sex:
Male equivalent:
Female equivalent:
is correct like that?
@Roy: Wow, I can't believe that the editor let you paste input boxes!
For example, if you defined the gender field name as "sex" (so $user->sex return "man" or "woman") you need to put "sex" in the "gender field name".
Also, you need to specify the gender equivalents; in the same example will be "man" for male and "woman" for female.
I just tested with users having undefined sex (in the system =P) and it work like should; adding all friends with unspecified sex at the end of the lists.
Hope my explanation works for you.
Another try:
1) $user->gender = male | female
Gender field name: gender
Male equivalent: male
Female equivalent: female
2) $user->sex = man | woman
Gender field name: sex
Male equivalent: man
Female equivalent: woman
3) $user->fruit = banana | peach
Gender field name: fruit
Male equivalent: banana
Female equivalent: peach
* this is a serious explanations =P
the question is: in profile or any other place I don't see where the user select male or female?
@Roy this plugin doesn't provide the gender field, it can run normally without it, but if you don't have a gender field (or don't get it configured in the plugin settings) the pulldowns will show all your friends together.
Cheers!
What should the field for the genders be? This works with form/flexprofile? Awesome work.
@Simon You must specify the key of user metadata field for gender ("gender" for $user->gender, "sex" for $user->sex, "fruit" for $user->fruit, whatever...). This should work with any plugin or customization that define the users profile fields as metadata. I use it in combination with profile_manager. If flexprofile defines the user attributes as metadata, you should be ok!
Cheers!
Emadagon: Thank you so much for this plugin. I've been waiting for something like this for a long time. I would be willing to contribute towards improving this plugin if you're interested.
Buddy Boy, thanks for you comment! be my guest to contribute in any way!
Cheers!
Somebody can help me, I don't know how can I install this plugin? I put the folder in mod folder and to enable it, in the platform, but I can see it.
@marceliru This plugin provides a widget for the profile page, you need to drag it to one of the widgets columns.
Also, if you use a profile field for gender, you can take advantage of it configurating this plugin (check my comments above).
Cheers!
How I add more options. For example: Girlfriend, Boyfriend, Cousin....
Are you going to update this for 1.8?
could you pls consider updating for elgg 1.8.3 as its no more working on 1.8.3 latest release.thanks.
This is just perfect, emdagon. I just want a simple way to relate people. All the other stuff is neat, but that basic funtionality of relating people is what's important. Would it be a huge task to upgrade the basic functionality to 1.8x?
plugin is abt 3 years old ;o(. emdagon hasn't posted here abt 2 years. your luck might brighten in another few years ;-) does it look like this community site is fading..? cheers ;oO;X;P
I like this plugin, I wish if someone can upload this for elgg 1.8 :)
