Hi!

Well done on the release of groupjive 2.0, it certainly looks amazing! I have a question of which i hope somone could answer.

I see you can upload photos/videos to groups pages. Is there any way you could have another tab (similar to photos/videos) where users could upload "files" (say pdf/mp3/zip/rar etc), with controls on filesize etc in the backend? Just for one of the main groups i'd want to create, i'd have no use for users uploading photos/videos, but other kinds of files would be essential for GJ use for me.

Cheers

C

Not without making an integration to do so, no. You could use the existing integrations as a base for your new integration.

Please read the documentation. There is a HUGE difference between 1.8 and 2.0. Mainly that it is NOT an extension. It is a Plugin installed within CBs Plugin Management. These types of plugins are called plugin components. All the power of a full Joomla extension packed into a single CB plugin.

Nice, but before upgrade to 2.0, what about with 1.8 Created Groups from my user? Deinstall and lost?
or is there any import function from the old groups from 1.8 to GJ 2.0?

or must we start from zero by installing GJ 2.

GroupJive 2.0 has a built in migration tool. Simply run Tools from within GJ 2.0 and it'll check for an existing database asking to migrate or delete. It'll use it's best judgment to move the categories and groups over. You do not have to uninstall GJ 1.8, they can run concurrent to one another, but only 1 of their CB plugins can exist. Migration is not full-proof and some groups may not move properly prompting re-creation (moving from two entirely different database and API structures).
