Social Connection Mod Support (Modzzz)

This is the support forum for the Social Connection mod.

Great module Modzzz,

Question, Is there a way that I can put in the main address to the network then they only have to put in the username or number to there account?

example:

put in = https://www.facebook.com/ for Facebook and then the member only has to put in there username that they picked for there page or the default numbers if they didn't pick there URL.

Reason why I ask is what to stop them from putting in any url and when someone clicks on lets say facebook and the person that clicked on it get sent to some other place that will install some virus to there computer. or sent to some link farm site that the person that set the link gets paid for sending them there.

@TruckingSpace - That's a good suggestion but how do we maintain the flexibility of being able to add other networks which may not conform to having a a USERNAME or ID appended to the site link ?

Doesn't all social networks have username or account numbers? If it is a networks they would have to have a profile page. That profile page would have to have the network domain name URL but then some way of telling what profile you are trying to view.

The only way it would not have a Account number or name would be if it is a personal page and does not have profiles. Then that is not a social network.

This is something that should really be in the default software. Once again, you continue to see where Dolphin is lacking.

Are there core file changes to this module?

 No.

You say 'It is possible for the Administrator to add other networks as they see fit'.

I've taken a look at the demo. Where do admins add them?

Also, is there a way to order the networks; alphabetically, for example?

I tend to agree with Trucking. At the moment, people can put anything in there; even links to porn sites.

@TravelNotes - The entries are in the Predefined List.

Very nice mod, modzzz. Always a pleasure purchasing products from you.

 You are welcome :)

 Thought I'd ask this one again.

The module has been updated to order display alphabetically.

This module combines well with your other modules, so much so that I've removed e-mail addresses on Lodging and Business Listing contact details and imported them into the Social Links.

I'm now thinking we could do away with the website as well and bring that into the Social.

Do you have a related (msocial/media) png image we could use for website (curved, elegant, round and square)?
