Description

We are working on a site where each group needs its own shoutbox, with a role in the group responsible for moderating only that shoutbox's posts. We are willing to sponsor this feature.

Did this get implemented??

I too am in need of such a functionality for Drupal 6 version.

Has there been any development in enhancing the feature to work for Organic Groups?

Not in shoutbox, to my knowledge. We've built our own module that we will be releasing back to the community. We call it a tipline but its essentially a shoutbox with moderation and while its not integrated with OG it simply requires a "key" that makes it unique, so each og group supplies it a key (the og group node id) and thus we have multiple tiplines (shoutboxes). If no key is supplied, it uses the page url as the key (so in that sense, you could have a different shoutbox in a number of contexts).

This really sounds great, so tipline can also be used in user profile context, this is awesome :) will keep a look out for your module.

Thanx.

solomongifford: how is development going on this module? I could really use a decent shoutbox for my site (this one has a lot of problems). I'm willing to help out if you guys need it.

This is exactly what i'm looking for in a current project. Any ideas on an ETA?

We're going live with it within a week. If someone is interested in helping to get the project onto drupal.org let me know.

archard - February 4, 2009 - 14:05

I can help you out with that. I know CVS can be confusing. Just let me know.

I would also be interested in helping out. Can test if you need.

Solomon,
I like the approach you have taken. Would you consider integrating this with shoutbox?

#12

jackspiv - February 5, 2009 - 04:24

I've been looking for this for a while too!!

Can't help with coding but will be willing to test in D5.12

manoz_79 - February 5, 2009 - 06:54

I would also be interested in helping out. I can test it on 6.9

*licking my lips* This is awesome! I'd be willing to help test/fix etc. the module as well. Let us know when it's up here! Thanks!

Hi Solomon,

Has this module gone live yet?

#16

solomongifford - March 3, 2009 - 04:43

We go live on Wednesday, 3/4/09....I've also set up a demo site so people can see if this is something they are interested in. Putting up the demo site was our first step in making sure we remove all dependencies on other custom stuff we are doing. We hope to release soon!

As an aside, we are also using this as a substitute for the comment module. We've integrated it with hook_link so that if the tipline is on a node correctly, nodes can have the "1 comment" "be the first to comment" etc...

Hi Solomon,

Any update on the release of the tipline module?

#19

arski - April 30, 2009 - 09:25

Hmm, any news on this one? Been a while since the last update

Also wondering how this turned out. A project page for the other module was never created... At least not that I'm aware of.
