Frank Oeffelke Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I have IPS 4.2 with some sub forums. My community is about pinball and there are some pinball-leagues with there own (closed) groups. Can I convert these groups to clubs with adrianos club plugin? If I read it correct, the club "admin" can add and delete users from his club? is this correct? With clubs, there is no need for me as admin to make changes in the user rights of the forum (like now without clubs)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOTE: Clubs doesn't has subcategories/subforums, so you will need to create one "feature" per subforum. 9 minutes ago, Frank Oeffelke said: If I read it correct, the club "admin" can add and delete users from his club? is this correct? A group has an OWNER (the one who created it), leaders, moderators and members. Community Admins and Club Owners can add members. You can also INVITE people (default feature). 9 minutes ago, Frank Oeffelke said: With clubs, there is no need for me as admin to make changes in the user rights of the forum (like now without clubs)? Clubs doesn't has permissions lilke Forums has. If a club is CLOSED, then only people who makes part of it, will be able to view/read its content.

Frank Oeffelke Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 This means: If a sub forum has more "categories" like "Events", "Tournamemts", "Appointments" I have to create 3 Clubs??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 No. A club with 3 features. In a simple way, feature is a "forum" (from Forums app). See: Your subforums would have to be like that: one feature per subforum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Oeffelke Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 This is the current state: Subforum is "Küste-Intern Below the users in this Sub.Forum "Mitspieler" "Spieltage"... are Sub categories in this forum Will all the posts and categories convert to a club with your addon?

Adriano Faria Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 If you convert the forum Spieltage to a club feature, all the 1.017 posts will be moved to the Spieltage feature club. It won't appear in the index anymore. But yes, you have 5 forums, then you have a club with 5 features. Only a note here: Clubs doesn't has subcategories due to the way IPS made it. It has nothing to do with my plugin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Oeffelke Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 So I have to convert "Mitspieler" as feature 1 of the club "Küste", "Spieltage" as feature 2 of the club "Küste", "An- und Verkauf" as feature 3 of the club "Küste" and so on??? This works automatically with your addon? The users will kill me if posts are lost.... I first create a Club Küste-Intern Then I create 5 features (Mitspieler, Spieltage....) Then I use your addon to convert the posts to the features? Is there manual for the addon downloadable anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. 1 minute ago, Frank Oeffelke said: This works automatically with your addon? No. It will prompt a club selection: Choose a club and click in the button. 2 minutes ago, Frank Oeffelke said: The users will kill me if posts are lost.... Well, no one else had any issue so far with it. If you are insecure, you can do the IPS way: move EACH topic to the club. It works too. 3 minutes ago, Frank Oeffelke said: I first create a Club Küste-Intern Yes. 3 minutes ago, Frank Oeffelke said: Then I create 5 features (Mitspieler, Spieltage....) Then I use your addon to convert the posts to the features? No. After create the club, go to Forums on Admin CP: Click and choose a club; it will create a feature with the same forum name. 5 minutes ago, Frank Oeffelke said: Is there manual for the addon downloadable anywhere? No. This is not a rocket science. Just install and use it. Use the plugin support topic if you have any doubts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Oeffelke Posted August 29, 2017 Author Share Posted August 29, 2017 I create a (private) club. Now I got this hint: This club has not been approved yet Until a moderator approves this club, only you can see it. WHERE can I approve the club?
