Add comments and likes in groups? [Solved] | Forum

Is there a plugin coming soon where you can add comments and likes in groups, as my members do not understand why they can not do that, and to be honest I totally agree with them?

sounds like a good idea

I believe its already there. If you add the newsfeed widget in the groups, members can post, get likes and comment.

Correct me, if I have understood your question wrong.

Purusothaman Ramanujam
Go to the admin plugin settings of the group.

Go to Additional settings tab.

Add the newsfeed widget.

I believe it is more of a layout problem as wall and latest  activity shows but is detached from group so it is confusing for members. Should be part of the group block

Hope this helps.

That's on my panel



Do you sugest uninstalling groups plugin ang re-install it?(I don't mind about deleting groups ...the site is on configuration stage,with 3 test members translating the software into Greek language ,before "open the gates".)

I re-instaled the groups plugin and everything is ok now...I think that happened because of the mass installation of the plugins  during the software's instalation.
If somebody need Greek translation would be available when I'll finish.(in a week )

I don't have the newsfeed plugin in groups too. If i uninstall and reinstall the groups plugin will i loose all groups and group content?
Purusothaman Ramanujam
Do not uninstall and reinstall. Just activate and reactivate.

Too late... I did a full backup (db and content) and then uninstalled and reinstalled - nothing changed. Later I found out that you need to deactivate and reactivate the newsfeed plugin in order to have newsfeed in groups, so this is the final solution to the "Newsfeed in Oxwall Groups" problem. I believe this is a bug and should be fixed...
Purusothaman Ramanujam
Yes. Its a known bug and Oxwall says they have fixed it.
