Integration of Third Party Component into Activity Stream

12 years 5 days ago #219122 by aussiemike
Integration of Third Party Component into Activity Stream was created by aussiemike
I posted this in another forum but got no answer:

I have requested that the developer of Community Answers ( www.corejoomla.com/ ) integrate the Community Answers activities (question and answers) into the CB Activity Stream. If anyone could point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

I am not a programmer and have limited knowledge of API and PHP. Any help would be appreciated. I am sure an integration of this component is going to bring more members/potential customers to CB.

I have read the following and several other forum posts but they mean nothing to me:
www.joomlapolis.com/forum/6-news-and-publicity/203472-new-cb-activity-streams-encourage-community-participation?limit=6&start=6#203556

Is there a tutorial or similar available?

Regards
Mike

There is no tutorial or documentation. There also really isn't any API. You can use the data usage as follows.

If unsure how to do this then just insert the activity with a database query. However, there are no CB triggers yet so 3rd party activity won't be able to have custom access controls or custom activity displays. They'd just be raw text/html entries.

Note this will be significantly improved with next release. Please see the below feature ticket.
