MySite pages let users create a personalized summary of the site. The MySite module duplicates the functionality of tools like MyYahoo! and Google's personalized homepage. The module uses a plugin API that allows developers to add new functionality.
MySite 5.x.2.19 released 08-FEB-2008 -- bugfix upgrade recommended for all users.
Update: multiple page support has been added and needs testers. Download 5.x.3 rc1 and start testing. And I am looking for jQuery and CSS testers and collaborators for the Drupal 6 version of the interface.
This group is for sharing ideas, solutions, and custom code (including Droplets) for MySite.

Module for portfolio website
Hello all , I am preparing drupal based self portfolio websites.
So I need to know about some of the most important drupal module which can help me for developing my online Portfolio website.
MySite to store and track user related info?
I am new to MySite and though I have used Drupal on a few sites I am far from being an expert. We need to allow users to regularly enter personal data (such as sales results) then display these results on their personal pages in graphs.
Would MySite be the best way to accomplish this? I guess that the charts module would be the best way to build the graphs, but I am not sure how to create the form or UI to allow users to enter the personal data?
Thanks for any suggestions on how to accomplish this.

Our university has been using Mysite for a while in a development instance of Drupal that we were hoping to roll out once we upgraded to Drupal 6. However, we had made some significant changes to the way MySite worked: we removed a lot of the pages features, limited people to a single layout and style, added on a feature to restrict applications and droplets to specific roles, and built a public/private interface for our users.

Dashboard Customization
I have been trying to create a dashboard in which a droplet requires user input once and that is displayed on the Dashboard. Here is the scenario, a user has selected Web Feeds as a droplet. Now once the user is adding it to his dashboard i want to specifically ask the user, which web feed he wants to display (a checkbox which would show all the Web Feeds and the user selects them) and then display them permanently on the dashboard (whenever he log's in again it should save the same settings).
Read moreMySite on shared tables
Hi
I'm thinking about the possibility to use mysite with multi site installation.
For example, let's say we have several shared tables:
'users' => 'shared.',
'sessions' => 'shared.',
'role' => 'shared.',
'authmap' => 'shared.',
'sequences' => 'shared.',
'profile_fields' => 'shared.',
'profile_values' => 'shared.',
'users_roles' => 'shared.',
we have two sites site.com - for english users and site.ru for russian users. Both sites have shared tables in shared. database and each site has own database for the rest tables. This should be working well.
Read moreMySite Pro Wanted For MySite Customization & Integration Project
Hello,
I am looking for a Web Developer very familiar with MySite. The Web Developer will be responsible for:
- Restructuring the MySite user interface. For example, I would like the settings to appear on a single, "Configuration" page, instead of using multiple pages.
- Integrate the configuration settings into a block located at the top of the site.
- Integrate MySite's user-customizable modules/droplets into the left hand side of a 3-column Drupal theme.
MySite scalability
Hi Ken --
I know you've deployed MySite on some large sites, and was wondering if you have any specific comments on the scalability aspects of MySite. Caching of data that gets pulled per user necessary? Fine out of the box because each user has a custom page (assume private)?
Feedback and techniques appreciated.
Read moreWhat are the future plans for integration of Panels and MySite modules?
Both the Panels and the MySite module provide a mechanism and an interface for creating pages with content blocks pulled from various sources. The main difference between the two is that Panels is aimed at the site administrator and MySite is aimed at the individual user. Compared to the complex functionality that both these modules provide, this distinction seems tiny.
Read morejQuery / JS ninja wanted for collaboration
It's that time. Time to start porting MySite to Drupal 6. It will take some effort, since I will be refactoring some code and doing an API cleanup to more closely integrate with Panels.
One of the coolest features in MySite is the ability to drag-and-drop elements around the page. Problem is, the feature is a little buggy and relies on the jQuery Interface project. Based on some recent discussion, I think a Drupal-specific solution might be best.
Read moreContent locking
Question: How does content locking work in MySite?
When the administrator sets up Default Content for all MySite collections, each individual content element can be 'locked.'
An element is locked by:
-- Adding the element (say, all posts tagged 'foo') to the default collection.
-- Configuring the element (click the configure link) for the default collection.
-- Checking the 'Lock item' box, labeled 'Check this option to display this content to all users at all times.'
Doing so has the following effects.

The first beta for the 5.x.3 release is out. It is likely buggy and needs tester love.
In good news, I did all the testing against pgSQL, so there should not be any database issues.
5.x.3 adds multiple page support and will also include a number of community-driven features. It will also be the version ported to Drupal 6.

Merry Christmas!
Multiple page support has been committed to HEAD.
It still needs lots of tester love. And, apologies to translators, there will be some necessary string changes in 5.x.3.
Read moreIntegration with OG
Hello all,
I've made some tests and got OG working for my purposes by extending og_views.inc.
The objective is:
Provide a droplet in mysite that shows posts in the user subscribed groups. Current limitation is that OG doesn't provide such a filter (it only provides a filter for the currenly logged-in user).
Not everything on this patch must necessarily be in og_views, but the filter should be there (and would need approval of the OG dev team).
Attached you will find a patch for the og_views.inc file, and instructions to test are:

Read morePersonalization and message feeds
While Drupal already has many of the tools necessary to implement social networking techniques on a community site, I haven't found anything that works like the personalized central "News Feed" system in Facebook or Twitter.
I'm curious whether anyone has done any development work, planning or merely thinking about how this might be done in Drupal, and about the implications.
Read moreshow blocks of the mysite user, not currently logged in user
Hello everybody,
I'm evaluating this module for a large site. Looks good so far, but I want to let users build their page with something like the following:
- their content (certain types)
- their buddies' faces
- their buddies' recent posts
- their subbed groups
- the latest posts in their subbed groups
MySite Translations
I just noticed that Carlos Miranda Levy added a Spanish translation to MySite CVS!
Some notes about translations (and for translators):
- I neither commit nor update .po files. I simply don't have the time.
- Any user with a CVS translator account can commit translation files to any project.
- The current stable branch of MySite is 5--2; this is where the 5.x.2 release series comes from. This series is bugfix only. Current translations should be committed to this branch.
Toward an Open Social Network Powered by Free Software
Breaking Open Facebook with Open Source Software (Part 2)
it’s important for socially aware software developers to begin thinking about how to provide alternative services to proprietary social networks. While I acknowledge this is a very high level description scarce on implementation details, I hope that it spurs some spirited discussions and future innovation.
