How do you create a secondary newsfeed?

Allon Prooit Posted in Beginning Developers 4 years ago

Ok, so you have the wall and by default OSSN 5.x can show either public or friends only posts. How do you make a second feed so you can have both displaying at once? One of my members wants a public and a friends only set of feeds. How do you accomplish this?

Allon, actually in Ossn wall is most complicated component, simply by renaming it may not resolves your problem.

The other solution could be a custom component where user can select which posts he wanted to see public + friends or friends only post. Similar component i developed in past for someone. If you interested in this you can contact us.

Given the possibility that you can do almost anything with Ossn 5.x, I believe you can take the OssnWall component, duplicate it and modify it so that it becomes a secondary wall. Working on doing that now. You would probably habe to use the Custom Pages component to create link on the side bar to it. Any thoughts?

Public posts means it contained :

  1. Non friends public posts
  2. Your friends public + friends only posts.

This is how friends only and public posts works in OSSN.
