CBActivity - Changing action options when posting???

9 years 2 months ago #269259 by mspeights1
When creating a new entry in CB Activity, I'd like to customize the menu at the bottom. I'm hoping to accomplish two things:

1. Is there a way to change the smiley face to something else?

2. Is it possible to edit the options in the "What are you doing?" section. For example, could I change "Reading" to "Training" (and the question to "What are you training?")?

Am I just dreaming? Really would be wonderful if this is feasible.

Thanks,

Mike

Login to admin side, go to CB Plugin Manager (under your cb menu, not the Joomla Plugin manager) and scroll down to 'Activity'

You will see something like this under it:




Check those to customize your activity stream. (locations, emotes etc.)

1. Is there a way to change the smiley face to something else?

The button below the status textarea can only be changed by altering it with CSS or editing the CB Activity template files. The template file for Activity display can be found below.

components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbactivity/templates/default/activity.php

In it is a specific function for New and Edit usages. Both would need to be adjusted.

To change the smiles for emotes or for the action selection options themselves you'll need to navigate to CB > Plugin Management > CB Activity > Actions and CB > Plugin Management > CB Activity > Emotes.

2. Is it possible to edit the options in the "What are you doing?" section. For example, could I change "Reading" to "Training" (and the question to "What are you training?")?

Yup, those are just the default actions. You can change them, delete them or add your own within the Actions page below.

CB > Plugin Management > CB Activity > Actions
