jimkeypro Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I've done an import from the abandoned original Social groups app. I have all the groups and it suggests content (see screenshot) but there seems no way to access it ? I assume I've missed something simple, but am at a loss to see where ? Now in the case shown If I click on the 'forum' jokes not too bad there is nothing produced. (I've admin rights) even if it's a group I belong too fully nothing appears ? Link to comment
Kevin Carwile Posted October 6, 2016 Author Share Posted October 6, 2016 @oldlock Maybe check the permissions on the forum? If you shoot me some links to your site and an ACP account I can probably give you some better advice. Link to comment

jimkeypro Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Is there anyway to move posts or thread into or out of a collab ? The moderator action as is does not seem to allow this to happen ? kar3n2 1 Link to comment

The moderator action as is does not seem to allow this to happen ? You can move forums into and out of a collab using the dropdown menu on the forums management. You can only move topics between foroms that are in the same context (either in the same collab or outside of a collab). kar3n2 1 Link to comment
jimkeypro Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Maybe a feature idea to allow moderators to move content into a collab from the main forum. We see off topic content in the main body of the forum that would be best in a collab but there is no way to get the content there. Link to comment

We lost activity quite significantly because at the time it was just missing integration with the site fully particuarly in our mobile BYO tapatalk app which meant that unless using the full site people were not seeing the content. Its a real shame because personally I love the app and think it as loads of plus points but every community is different and ours struggled despite giving it 12 months to try to convert people. kar3n2 1 Link to comment

Times moved on with this app so Im hoping that all the little bugs etc have been ironed out by now. I do have a plan to use the app now whereas early days even thought I though it a great idea I couldnt think how my site might benefit from different groups. Wayne B 1 Link to comment

DeadiKation Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Hello @Kevin Carwile Is there a way for us to present the collabs as part of the main forum categories / discussions? As nice as it is to organize the collabs in their own homes, they feel somewhat secluded from the rest of our forums sitting in a "Collaborations" Category. I'd like to have an option to have their forums show as their own category on the main forums page or a choice of setting up categories / discussions that lead to the collab itself. I'm not saying the collabs have to be shown in a special container or anything, just that I'd like to either make it toggleable or build out categories with their icons and discussions leading to the collab to show on the main forum page. If this needs to be paid for I can look into commission if needed. Thanks! Link to comment
Kevin Carwile Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 You can just add a new redirect forum with the link to a collab category or an individual collab and it will be displayed like a regular forum with the latest post or collab. Link to comment

I do that currently, however I have a few issues. 1) Redirects do not allow for custom icons to be placed on the forum main page 2) Redirects link to the collab, but we wanted to show engagement by having the collabs forum container show on the main page. Otherwise they have to click on the redirect to see all the forums / subforums. Is there something I'm missing or would that be a feature needing to be implemented? Link to comment
Bluedrake42 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 I can't find if this has already been answered but... Is it possible to change the collab leader after a collab has already been created? Link to comment
