Organic groups

This group should probably have more organizers. See documentation on this recommendation.

This group is about the development of OG module and related modules. It is not an issue queue!

assign user role only update og_user_roles table but not user_role

Posted by phcdrupal on June 10, 2011 at 2:07pm

I use og_user_roles module to assign user role when registered users join a group or create a group. I'm trying to assign "authenticated group user" role for join a group and "group owner" role for creating a group. However, it only updated og_user_roles table but not user_roles table.

I did try to trigger an action as well. It did run the code in function views_bulk_operations_user_roles_action() in user_roles.action.inc and function user_save() in user.module.
It did come in to the code below: (in user_save() function)
foreach (array_keys($array['roles']) as $rid) {

Which Entity to use?

Posted by Torspedia on June 8, 2011 at 12:02pm

I have just completed the installation of Drupal onto my personal site. When I went to activate the OG module, there were messages saying that the "Entity" module was missing. I searched for the said module on the Drupal site, but discovered that there are many modules which use that name. Can someone please let me know the name of the correct Entity module to use?!

Posted by b_drupal on June 1, 2011 at 9:16am

hi,

I'm planning a website that will enable user open and mange groups.

Is there any limitation for the number of groups drupal can handle efficiently?
if i have something like 50,000 groups, what will happen to the select boxes lists displaying lists of groups in the admin ui?

Thanks

Functionality of OG with Drupal 7

Posted by nakins on May 28, 2011 at 12:42am

Hi all,

I know this is a Dev group, but I'm having a real hard time trying to learn Drupal and OG. I'm not finding a lot of documentation or tutorials on this. The vast majority of the stuff on the net is for D6. for example, I found a video from Drupal Dojo aboutOG, in which they talked about OG Panels. well, I started with D7 (which I thought would be the thing to do) and there is no OG Panels for D7.

Recurring Events (conferences) with Organic Groups

Posted by kclarkson on May 18, 2011 at 2:45pm

I have a site where someone hosts yearly workshops / events. They would like to add new events while also seeing past events.

I am going to use Organic groups for the events so that there is a social aspect.

How would you suggest breaking down the groups by year of the event? I was thinking sub groups ?

Theme switching when using a group calendar

Posted by therron on May 3, 2011 at 4:00pm

Hi I hope this is not a repeat question. My company has OG up and running, but with a problem:

A calendar block (calendar module) for each group has been setup within the right sidebar. We have a separate "OG" theme and a "mainwebsite" theme.
The problem is that when we click a date within the right sidebar block calendar within a group, the event displays but uses our main website theme instead of the OG theme we want used.

Why is this occurring? If you can provide any assistance that would be great.

Thanks!

OG Theme changes

Posted by Vilas Boas on April 28, 2011 at 2:59pm

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to make the first contribute to this great module for Drupal7.

This is a module that can change not only OG, but the way that drupal is seen.

OG_THEME was recently separated from OG main module http://drupal.org/project/og_theme , because of that there are not many users for now.

If we can add 3 more fields to og_theme:
- LOGO as a image field;
- SLOGAN as a text field;
- EMAIL as a text field.

If we add this 4 fields (Theme, Logo, Slogan e Email), to a 80 code lines module, this will override the site default values on the Organic Groups node.

Using OG pathauto with shared content types

Posted by protoplasm on April 28, 2011 at 12:45pm

I have an established community based on the latest 6.x. A while ago we added OG and have a handful of groups that share the same content types with the rest of the site. The groups are not in a subdomain like groups.drupal. I'd like to distinguish the groups using pathauto and the ogname token. The only problem is that an empty ogname token will give me two // for the rest of my site's content types that aren't in OG. Any thoughts on how to best deal with this?

Thanks in advance.

Posted by jaikrishna on April 25, 2011 at 1:10pm

Hi,

How to configure Organic groups to work with User Points so that Group owner assigns user points to user of that group based on post, comments etc.

bascially a taxonomy should be assigned to a group and when a user posts a content in a group points should be assigned to that user pointing to the group taxonomy.

i e each group owner should have a control over the User Points and the group taxonomy

any help.....?

OG calendar

Posted by bjc5070 on April 22, 2011 at 12:53am

Im new to this group, so I hope this isnt a repeat question. I have OG calendar running. I want a calendar block for each group. how do I do this? also, when I go to my groups calendar page my sort criteria (month day year) take me out of my group calendar, and to a calendar with the entire sites events listed. Anyone know how to fix this, or how to hide those sort criteria? thanks for your help in advance.

Brendan.

Where are the subscription/membership options on Drupal 7

Posted by JonnyAnderson on April 19, 2011 at 5:25am

Just as the title says... I'm trying to figure out how a group admin (group creator) can adjust the membership settings (open/admin-approval/invite-only/closed) of his/her group. I also want to know if this setting can be changed at any time after the initial creation. I'm working in Drupal 7 by the way...

Documentation

Posted by Clive@onebrick.org on April 15, 2011 at 8:06pm

Organic Groups seems like an incredibly powerful set of tools. However, there doesn't seem to be a description the underlying concepts, philosophy, use models, limitations, ...
If one exists then I apologize. I am pretty new to the world of Drupal. Coming up to speed has been challenging.

I would like to help pull this together. But I need folks to provide me with the input. For me, it would definitely help with my education. But I also hope it will help other people.

Is anyone interested in helping with this?

OG7 and Content access not working together

Posted by artatac on April 8, 2011 at 4:11pm

as outlined in more detail here http://drupal.org/node/1121102 I am getting on well with OG7 and public/private groups but when I try to add the facility of a content type (assignment_from_pupil) that can ONLY be seen by the student(author) and the teacher (not the other students) - the og privategroups and their private content become viewable by all. If I turn off content-access module it behaves but then I have no ability to have a content-type that can only be seen by the the author. Any thoughts, I had it working well in D6, but would like to upgrade

Publically Accessible but Restricted Participation Group

Posted by markwk on March 30, 2011 at 7:04pm

I have an OG drive site that currently has two kinds of groups--private and public. One issue I am running into is dealing with how to display a private group exists (for example in a view listing all groups) while still restricting access.

The bigger issue that I am running into is how I might create a public-ally accessible group but restricting participation to true members?

Is this something I can do with OG as is or do I need to look at adding code?

OG7 private nodes names visibale in /tracker

Posted by MeHail on March 24, 2011 at 11:20pm

Hello everyone. I'm fairly new to OG. Could someone plesae clarify if its normal that /tracker modules shows the names/links of the private nodes? Yes you can not actually open the node - but seeing the name is not good in most cases.

Anyone?

Unable to Enable the Module

Posted by Torspedia on March 24, 2011 at 4:24pm

I've installed the moduel to my newly Drupal powered site, but have come up with a problem. I went to enable the module so that I can start to use it (so that each of my projects can have their own group), but I was unable to select the check box. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can resolve this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I wish you well.
