Re: Only Show Menu - if User Has Permissions To Contents?
Hi Keith! The Category for "Group Hubs" should be set to "Deny" for some default permissions such as "See Category", "Read Posts", "Submit Posts". Copying what's in place for the Moderation Category Defaults. Then the roles that SHOULD be allowed to view the Category need to be added and set to Allow for those same areas. Create a private forum is the source doc for that rec. I can help you directly as well. Let me know!238Views1like0CommentsRe: Group Hubs related questions
Hi there, Once a group hub is created, the type can be changed by Group Hub Owners and/or Admins. If you have this feature enabled on Stage, feel free to test it out with users that have these two roles. There is no concept of a sub group within group hubs. The attachment referred to in the post is not coming through for me, so apologies if a concept was not adequately addressed. Hope that helps!236Views1like0CommentsRe: Has anyone tried customizing each category with different headers and footers, I have seven catagori
Hi rizalvi, Creating and applying different skins per node is possible in Studio. It is also possible to create different page layouts across nodes (Categories) to address your components question. Key point is that a skin is not a page layout and vice versa. Creating the skin is done in Studio. It requires creating the new Skin and, just like the current skin, setting the Properties (user friendly CSS), Images (assets related to the skin), CSS, and the Wrapper (houses the header and footer amongst other things). Instruction on skin creation is referenced in the Lithosphere via Studio tutorials. Once the skin is created, it is then available to be applied to the node where it should appear. Refer to this article on applying the skin you created via the Admin. Note that there are global pages in the application (search, profile) that will take the skin of the Community by default. Creating different page layouts (meaning the non skin elements listed above, but the Community components that make up what appears on each page) can also be created. Refer to this article that explains how to do this. Before this undertaking, be sure unique skins and page layouts are needed in the first place. While the application supports setting these up, it comes with eventual overhead of maintaining x number of skins, components and layouts that house them. A lot can be done to customize/brand pages within a corp main skin (and thus in the Admin) such as: Use of 'Welcome' component that houses an image/asset swapped in/out and unique at the Category level. Use of Custom Content modules that are node scoped and placed in a fixed position in the right rail. Use of OOB components that are node scoped by default (such as leader boards, recent posts, etc). Use of freemarker in custom components to show different content based on rank/role or authentication in the same module. These considerations are especially important if expansion is needed for the Community down the road. The design barrier to spinning up a new, branded Category is reduced to a few assets instead of everything detailed above. Hope this serves as a solid basis for the how and why.

Hi again Naresh, As far as I know, there isn't currently a way to query by date range using the API, slightly more on that here.. A few ways to accomplish what you are trying to do would to be to run the job daily and use the post date in the response XML to determine if the entry should go into the repository. An alternative for the purpose you described would be to use the Event Subsription API. Hope this is useful! Scott380Views0likes2CommentsRe: Change Landing Page
Hi there. Not super clear on what the user experience and use case is for this request, but one avenue to explore is to modify the Mobile Community Home Page in Studio to feature a Custom Component directing/showing what you want mobile users to view first?173Views0likes1CommentRe: PayPal community forum latest posts using REST API
Hi Naresh, If you mean that you also want to receive the body of the post in addtion to the subject line, you can add this parameter to the end of your current call. ?restapi.format_detail=full_list_element. If you want a topic and all its responses, you'll want to make a different call. For example, this discussion: http://lithosphere.lithium.com/lithium/restapi/vc/threads/id/56362 Does that help?
