Group Collaboration

No I haven't. I'm hoping Kevin will build in the black transparent background like on IPS Profiles or other headers

If a 'normal' user in a non-moderator and non-admin group adds a new Collab, he becomes an owner of the new added Collab and has a permission to edit the Collab settings. The settings on the ACP "Restrict Owner Permissions" is ON (True). On an unknown reason, this permission to edit the Collab settings will be disappeared just after several minutes! If I sign as Administrator and allow to the Collab's owner only the edition of the Collab settings, he won't see anything in the Collab management menu: If I manually input the editing link (.../index.php?/gc/3-test/&do=edit), the error will appear: Although, the settings for his Role allow the collab leader to edit the Collab Settings: If I try to enable ALL permissions for the owner's Role (all to "ON"), the "Collab settings" still won't be shown within the Collab management options Only if the ACP setting "Restrict Owner Permissions" is set to "OFF", the owner has all the settings in the menu available. I have tested GC version 1.4.3 and 1.4.4 on my localhost, and I wonder why no other users reported this issue, so please help to check it, @Kevin Carwile, is this my local problem or that's a bug? Thank you,

Try using the latest version. That notice was fixed in 1.4.3.

Hello! I get the following error: Something went wrong. Please try again. Error code: EX2 This error was probably caused by application Collaboration.

Could probably be done with a line or two of css if it needs customized. Have you done this already in custom.css? If you have can I have these line of code which could to this?

Well, it kind of is? The collab owner is promoting his specific collab. So when his guests arrive, they're entering directly through his collab as the point-of-entry and his collab home is a portal to the rest of his collab. It's a mini portal that deserves a mini registration button . I mean be able to invite non-site guests, such as an invitation to be able to send out to one person. For example, you want to invite your real-life friend to join your collab.

$collab_id = 1; // Collab to load $collab = \IPS\collab\Collab::load( $collab_id ); $logo = \IPS\File::get( 'collab_Logos', $collab->logo ); $image_url = $logo->url;

That create collab form is loaded via ajax and outside of the context of an individual collab and therefore is not possible to display forums from collabs. It only allows creation of forums in the global site context. This is just a technical limitation of the way that collabs is able to keep track of context. It's just not compatible.

1. I'm confused by this. Group collaboration is not a registration or sign in portal. Why would that be a function of collabs? 2. When you say "non community" members, do you mean to say people who have accounts on the board but are not members of a collab? You can invite people to collabs if they are a site member, but not if they dont have a site account. As for mass inviting 1700 members, I believe that is a special case and should probably be coordinated. Also, inviting a member is a notification extension which means the user can choose the way they get notified. I think that makes the most sense. 3. Could probably be done with a line or two of css if it needs customized.

3. Add black background to collab name like on IPS profiles. Otherwise, it's very hard to see collab name on light-colored backgrounds.

Hi, Group Owner who is bringing over his 1700 member group wanted me to ask about two items, which I thought were reasonable suggestions: 1. Add "Join" button to cover photo. He's trying to attract non-community members, and there's no "register" or "sign in" button within the collab to get them logged in. 2. Add email invitations to non-community members in Manage Members. Same as above, he has no way of reaching out to invite them directly to his new group.

As I said before (and before you changed the topic title), im not going to compare clubs that comes with IPS to one of the more expensive apps. An idiot should know something you pay that much for, should / is better. Im saying you should get a little more with it. Seems like you get the bare-bones of this "Club++" with no real documentation. Honestly at this point, it seems abandoned with one fanboy lurking around that's pointlessly arguing with someone who is trying to make the app better with some feedback.

Change club types to Public, Open, Closed, etc. to mimic language

You might as well copy IP.Clubs. Here are some features: 1. Maps 2. Paid Clubs

"Join Collab" button on banner if user is not a member - encourages signup to the group

Langstring: You do not have permission to collab_perm_editCollab. (I clicked on a collab's Group Management > Group Settings when the user didn't have owner permission)

Menu Manager is better Role Management is better Permissions within each collab's app / category Extensive moderation options for both collab category and within each collab Categories and customization in every IPS application and third-party application, which is critical in my case. One of my users wanted 2 gallery categories (first one with 12 sub-categories, the second one with 26 sub-categories). You just can't handle a complex structure like that in Clubs.

Various suggestions and feedback as I set up collab for a user: 1. I want to make another user the owner of the collab. I created a new "Owner" role with all permissions. Is that the recommended approach or is there a way to transfer ownership of the collab to him? 2. Group Management > Manage Roles: When setting up new roles, allow a simple check All / None option. 3. Group Management > Manage Roles: Langstring on Pages 4. (Ignore) 5. Breadcrumb navigation drops collab when navigating through collab gallery: I set up a collab's gallery categories Go into a category If you look at the breadcrumbs ,it drops the collab URL and becomes something like: Home > Main Collab Category > [Missing: Collab Name] > Collab's gallery category (It's fine for Forums but not for Gallery) 6. Create Menu: suggestion to offer fa-icons. Scrolling through the list of icons is painful since there are so many options! 7. Member List

I requested the topic change myself, it was a more accurate description of the actual content.

Lol nice title change. Went from "Ugh" to "Comparison To IP.Clubs". Why are you trying to derail my points? My constructive criticism is for the devs to make a better app for the user. Not to start a fight with you.

Why compare a feature that comes with IPS to a $75 + $55 renewal fee asset... Clubs was introduced on 4.2 and was the first iteration of the feature, in 4.3 they plan to revamp it. The Clubs vs this asset is a different conversation entirely but to amuse you, clubs gives you a widget that isnt just a blank table, i can grab club info wherever + this asset is just Clubs just with categorization, simple external roles and having a forum addon. You would think for what you pay it would come with decent support/flexibility. Also im not interested in fanboy arguments, just wanted to state my points.

I mean, you think IP.Clubs is better?? IP.Club header is the same header they use in everything else like Profiles and Blogs. There's also no widget customization in IP.Clubs ...

Yeah i wouldnt say that... Styling and flexibility is 2 things that totally lack in it and support. Made a topic about accessing the collab header under a guest account and he wont approve my other posts under it, nor reply back.... Deafult header is meh. And the widget customization is mega meh so just changed em but he still doesnt reply/approve my other questions

Got it

Oh, I see what you are saying. The "Groups" settings tab on your Guest group edit page is basically irrelevant.
