customer: question
customer: parameter...update users in groupd
customer: groups
jooblogs: oki. i saw , just small question. are you sure master group ID = 1 is correct at your site ?
customer: can have several groups..or just one?
customer: I created a group in k2 called bands
customer: it is master group 1
jooblogs: ooki. please allow me again 5min for explan configuring ?
customer: sure
jooblogs: 1. Enable MB: If you dont need MB function and just want to sync data between K2 & JS . Just turn off this option.
jooblogs: for basic understand. K2 have: Avatar/ Gender / Description / URL for each user
customer: wait
jooblogs: this plg will sync this from JS to K2
customer: OIC
customer: but will that allow them to blog?
customer: and isnt that multiblogging?
jooblogs: please allow moment, im trying to expalnd step by step
customer: ok
customer: sorry
jooblogs: when you turn off this option
jooblogs: it will allow JOOmultiblog plugin only sync data K2-JS
jooblogs: without Multiblog feature
customer: ok
jooblogs: it's each user don't have their own cat / user group
jooblogs: just sync data of him / her from JS to K2
jooblogs: this way you dont need to hack K2 template / modules jooblogs.com/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=24:how-to-overwrite-k2-template-integration-with-jomsocial&Itemid=16
jooblogs: to make integrate K2 - JS
jooblogs: ok. next. Because we are using JOOmb for mb funtion
jooblogs: so please enable it
jooblogs: Default User group: Just in case above option turn off
jooblogs: MB is not use. this will allow create new user into K2 user table with data sync with JS
jooblogs: If you dont need , just pass it.
jooblogs: OK most important step
jooblogs: Master Category
jooblogs: This category will use as parent Category. it's mean all user category will create under this category
jooblogs: Choose one
jooblogs: Master User Group. As prev , i said that
jooblogs: each user willhave his / her user group that have config for permission
jooblogs: this master user group is "master" user group that configured with all needed permission
jooblogs: so when plg create new user group for new user
jooblogs: it will clone this master user group
jooblogs: with all permission configured
jooblogs: so this new user will have permission
jooblogs: is it oki for these step . can i go ahead ?
customer: yes
jooblogs: format sub category / username is nothing special
jooblogs: when plg create new cat / user group
jooblogs: it need name
jooblogs: you can design how it nam
jooblogs: name
jooblogs: like JOOblogs_{usernam}
jooblogs: so when new cat create for user abc with username "abc"
jooblogs: it will make new cat name: JOOblogs_abc
jooblogs: same for user group
jooblogs: you can also preset description for all sub category ( when we say sub cat, it's mean cat ofeach user )
jooblogs: is it oki , can i go a head
customer: yes
jooblogs: pbulish new sub
jooblogs: when user have new their own cat
jooblogs: do it need auto published / this option for this
jooblogs: so in case you need moderate all new cat
jooblogs: just yes no
jooblogs: Update exsityed user in group
jooblogs: for example . your site have 1.000 user
jooblogs: and 300 user already assiged into user group 10
jooblogs: and another 100 users into user group 14
jooblogs: 10 and 14 is your user group but can't use as multiblog
jooblogs: because it do not assigned for each user
jooblogs: in this case if you want to update 300 + 100 these users into MB
jooblogs: just end 10,14 in this option
jooblogs: is it okay ?
customer: yes
jooblogs: User config . i think its easy for understand , rite
customer: yes
jooblogs: just option for sync
jooblogs: that's it
jooblogs: but pls note
jooblogs: as free version
jooblogs: you can't sync description
jooblogs: of each user and also for user link
jooblogs: for got
jooblogs: delete user cat / and group
jooblogs: this option will action when user have deleted
jooblogs: by any reason ( in joomla not by action direct into db )
jooblogs: it 'll help you clean up his/ her category / usergroup
jooblogs: so dont massup your cat / usergroup
jooblogs: that's all
jooblogs: user configs area , do it have any confuse you ?
customer: what should the value be
customer: for update users in group
jooblogs: as prev said. if you want to update all user already assigned into k2 user group
jooblogs: you will use this
jooblogs: if im not wrong
customer: awesome
jooblogs: k2 default have plg for this
jooblogs: and default assgin user into user grouo: Registered ( id = 1 )
jooblogs: but that's default
jooblogs: for live site depend on you
customer: ok
customer: by turn on and off multblog
jooblogs: by turn off MB
customer: you mean turn the plug in on and off
jooblogs: ah .. so nothing to do
jooblogs: no i mean turn of MB
