Latest Ning Import and NingJa skin updates
Installation and Configuration
Strumelia:Brian, this is terrific! you're the best!
Question on my specific situation: I held off on updating to the two 'new' Groups modules from a week ago or so, and thus I did not follow the instructions you laid out for updating them and deleting the 'old' group modules.
Should I do all that now BEFORE I update what you released today? OR should I bypass that and simply go directly to updating what you released today and then delete my original group modules that i never updated last week? (ugh, this question is clear as mud, sorry...)
No problem. It's actually easier now if you're OK re-importing your groups, discussions and pages. Just do this:
- go into the marketplace and update everything that is available to be updated
- go into the ACP -> Ning Support - Ning Import module.
- Click on the "Global Config" tab. make sure you have entered the Profile ID you want your SYSTEM FORUM to be located on in the "Site Forum Profile ID" config option (this is new). Most likely you want it on YOUR profile, which is probably "1". You can do ACP -> Users -> Profile Browser to browse the ID's available on your system. Save your changes.
- click on the "Import Ning Archive" Tab.
Make sure all the select options say "Do Nothing" EXCEPT the following:
- Profile Forum
- Group Support
- Group Discussions
- Group Pages
- Page Creator
Set all of those to 'Delete and Create (all items re-created)'
- press the "Import Selected Items" button.
When complete, all the Groups, Discussions, Pages and Forum entries should be setup.
Let me know if that helps.
Thanks!
