Adding Pages to your network

[Phil McCluskey]

The instructions for adding pages to your network have been moved into the wiki. You can find them here.

Hi Maxie,

Unfortunately you won't be able to change the language strings for each individual instance; you can only change them across all of the new page components. If you want to change them individually and you're a developer you'll need to look at requesting access to the full source code and creating separate widgets for each one.

Thanks,
Phil

Hi,

How do we make user comments visible to non members on newly created pages? They seem to disappear to logged off users? And is there any way for "Latest Activity" to display when someone comments on them?

[Phil McCluskey]

Hi My.SoManyMp3s,

The first issue seems like a bug; we'll investigate and schedule a fix. There's no Activity Dashboard integration with the pages widget; this isn't something that's currently in our plans.

Thanks,
Phil

Hello Phil.

I have followed all instructions to add a page and I think I did it correctly and thanks a lot!
Your instructions are more than perfect.

And I wanted to ask something else.
Is it possible to customize a music page?
I mean, a music page that will look like photos page or videos page.
I ask because my network have a lot of musicians, who create their own music and their own lyrics as well.
So I want to separated music with their own lyrics, description and the user could add a comment on each music, rate or chose their favorite, music could be grouped in albums as well.

Is it possible?

Thanks a lot
Marina

P.S: sorry for my english bur I'm greek :))

Hi Marina,

What you want to do is certainly possible, but at this point it will require custom development to build.

Thanks,
Phil

Hi Phil,
I wonder if there has been some change since the upgrade work today? I have just tried to add a new page feature to a colleagues site http://neveshaanann.ning.com , (something I have done a few times before on various ning networks) but this time the page tab isn't showing in the navigation bar.

thanks
Susan

FAQ

Works for me.

Just added a couple of Tabs (Chat, FAQ) using your very simple directions on the wiki that you provided.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Bingo that was my next question also (the one about disabling comments), I'm glad I read through the thread.

A question - if I create this new custom page feature, is my site then considered "custom," so I won't receive NING site updates? I know I can follow this workaround, but I'm not a developer, so I want to make sure to receive future updates to the site automatically.

Thanks!!!

[Phil McCluskey]

Hi Miles,

You can add the pages feature above as per the instructions and you'll still receive automatic updates.

Thanks,
Phil
