  • madd69 added a new discussion topic Basic functions not found in elgg? in the group Elgg Technical Support
    Definite newbie here. Went from having never heard of elgg 3 weeks ago to putting together a feature rich site in that short time. I'm very impressed with the sheer number of plugins available. That said there are several functions that seem common...
    • DhrupDeScoop...wasn't intended as a critique. They are just things I haven't come across that seemed (to me) to be basic features on a social network. It very well could be that I just don't know what I'm doing or where to look ;-) So was hoping if this stuff is out there someone could point me in the right direction to look for it.

    • NOT Taken as negative critique...

      Oki I think 1/2 of the stuff is floating around in some PlugIns.. Some of the listed features just doan exist - so gotta code the shtz ;-)

      A quick thought for 1: Jeroen Dalsem's profile counter plugin. Currently shows the count on the settings tab but wouldn't take you much to program it to show on the profile page by adding a new profile view page. (Indeed you "gotta code the shtz".) 8 could be in the same view as join date is stored in the database so a direct call would solve that ($user->time_created), maybe 1 or 2 lines of code. For the other I suggest taken a look at the rivercomments plugin I think it was called? Maybe that can be easily  extended with a counter. For how to do that you could take a look at how Jeroen did it in the profile counter plugin and copy/paste that and edit it to do what you want. If you got this far in only three weeks this shouldn't be too much work for you.
