No follow feature

brianja89117

There is no button on the pages to follow or join. There is a link to view members of the page, but no way for them to become a member. The main purpose of a page, is to get followers, and should be on there. Any way you can add it?

Hi
To become member of the Page you need to like the page. Like button is present for the pages.

I see...That should really be a feature. All social network sites allow like and follow on their pages. If they follow someone, it would display that pages updates in their activity stream. I could pay a little if you guys are willing to do it. Let me know...

Also, I need to deactivate the filter for "Show All" because it displays all posts from the entire site, which is kind of strange. That is a privacy issue, and imagine I had 10 million members on my site, that would automatically display 10 million feeds on my stream. And most members wouldn't realize it.

I found an older hack at https://www.jomsocial.com/forum/profile-universal-features/21650-activity-stream-filter-all but it was from 6 years ago, and the page location change. Where is it located now? What I really want to do is automatically display friends and I & Following, and disable the rest. If that is not possible, I can use the above hack.

Thank you so much.

Hi
On the frontpage it supprt multiple features.
Any user can change the filter as per their own choice and it will be save in his browser so next time he will see the same : http://prntscr.com/sf16o2
Also in the backend you can set a default filter : http://prntscr.com/sf16yw

For the pages new feature to follow, i will share the feedback to development team,, if there is more new requests on the same, it might be considered soon.

Hello Pankaj,

Yes, I know they can change it, but I want to remove that filter as it explains below. The file location has changed. I don't want any user to be able to access all users activity feeds if they are not friends or following. Imagine if I could access 2.5 Billion users on my facebook account, and I am not friends with them.

The follow is an important feature. Please let me know as soon as possible if you decide not to do it. I will have to pay someone. Thanks.

Hi, Saeed.

Ok, then use my little hack:

Copy this file: ROOT/components/com_community/templates/default/frontpage.index.php

to:

ROOT/templates/your-template/html/com_community (if you don't have "html" or "com_community" folders, feel free to create them)

Edit file and look for "COM_COMMUNITY_FILTERBAR_ALL".
It will be in line 90-91.

Then just delete whole:

Filter "ALL" will be gone from filters list.
