News for Groups (AndrewP)

AndrewP "News for Groups" support thread is here.

Я не нашел ограничения на публикацию новостей группы, поэтому сейчас каждый член группы может создавать новости, что крайне нежелательно. Есть ли способ ограничить права, чтобы публиковать новости мог только владелец? Dolphin 7.0.7

I didn't find access levels for group news publication. So, anyone could post this news, it's bad. Is there any way to give access for group owner only? Dolphin 7.0.7

Main idea of module was possibility to fans of groups to sharing news, this is because this is allowed by default.

But you always can disable this possibility with commenting single row in sources

Thanks for reply. All works fine.

Module has been updated (and verified to work with latest dolphin version 7.0.9).

This module has been updated. It is available for Dolphin 7.1 now.

There are several new features (for 7.1):

* new dolphin's charts
* vector icons

Probably a simple change a code somewhere but this module says that it is not compatible with 7.1.3 yet. I am sure that Andrew is working hard to get the modules updated.

Yes, this is just because of config file. I have to update a whole bunch products all the time..

anyway, there is an easy hint how to overcome this issue with compatibility:

modules\andrew\gnews\install\config.php

change

    'compatible_with' => array(
        '7.1.0'
    ),

to

    'compatible_with' => array(
        '7.1.x'
    ),

(I will add it to the next version of this module)

Hi Andrew, does the recent update include changes that require full install or just changes to a few files? Any new features?

If you would like to have the latest version, you can just rewrite its files. I didn't add any new feature in that version, just corrected the compatibility info and other slight changes in sources. If you have any ideas regarding this module, feel free to share them with me

New features (v 2.0.2):
* Now this module is integrated with the 'Timeline for Groups' module
