Mobile Tabs/Navigation
Hi, Does anyone know a way to force the number of tabs you want to see; for example, I'd like to see 3 tabs before seeing "more". I've been shown tricks to modify stock components by placing them in a custom component, and adding a line of javascript, if that helps with a creative solution here. :) I'm not a huge fan of the tabs in general, breaking things out by discussion types; I'd love these to be sperated out by the community structure's categories, but I don't see how to do that either... Bonus if someone's customized that to be cool! Thanks!283ViewsSign in to react to this post1Comment- ViewsSign in to react to this postComments

You should actually be able to do this using standard components. If you go into Studio and edit your category page, you can add the following components via the XML tab:
<component id="forums.widget.recent-messages" interactionStyle="blog"/> <component id="forums.widget.recent-messages" interactionStyle="forum"/> <component id="forums.widget.recent-messages" interactionStyle="idea"/>
In this example, the "interactionStyle" parameter is controlling the type of messages shown in the component. So the first component will only show blog posts, the second will show only forum posts, and the third will show only idea posts.
If this doesn't meet your needs, let me know and I can point you towards some information on creating a custom component.
Re: Returning user's full name in a component
Unfortunately, this did not work for me. However, we were very close! This is what did work in the end: <#assign firstname = rest("/users/id/${user.id}/profiles/name/name_first").value/> <#assign lastname = rest("/users/id/${user.id}/profiles/name/name_last").value/> That assignment worked, so using this, I could return the string values: <span>${firstname} ${lastname}</span> The results are just as I wanted. Looks so simple now! :robothappy: Thanks!ViewsSign in to react to this postCommentsRe: Changing 'Kudos' to 'Likes'
I made the changes using the Text Editor as suggested in this conversation. I first searched for "Kudo" and then "Kudos". I took those search results and put them in a text editor. Using Find/Replace (not replace all; that won't work) I changed a large number of the most important values. It's not a fun task, but it's the only way I found that works.ViewsSign in to react to this postCommentsReturning user's full name in a component
This should be real easy, but I'm not having any luck with it yet. In Studio, in a custom component, it's as easy as using this tag to return the logged in users login name: Welcome, ${user.login} By using this, I'll get: Welcome, mstim But I want to return the users full name; Welcome, Tim Notte I don't see anything listed here: http://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/developers-knowledge-base/Context-objects-for-custom-components-user/ta-p/9339 I've been pointed in the direction of using REST API to get this. In our community's Public Statistics, there is a Name feild, populated as expected from our SSO. How do I grab that and use it in a component? New to API, TimViewsSign in to react to this postComments- ViewsSign in to react to this postComments

I'm having the same issue. Branding the community to OUR standards is extremely important, and "kudos" is not cool with our design team at all. The only way I've seen is Text Editor, but I beleive that's the "manual" process you mean; there are hundreds of entries! I wish there was a config as simple as Singular= *** Plural= ***, and it changes the term globally. For our purposes specifically, "Kudos" is just awful! Anyone have a better solution than the Text Editor? Thanks, TimViewsSign in to react to this postComment
