I agree. Mlsfriends has many of the features we need. Are there plans to port it to the newer versions of Xoops? I think it could be used. If not then I might take a crack at it in January. I just want to make sure whatever I do can be made to work with the much anticipated future releases of Xoops.

I started using XOOPS to get away from yahoo groups. I see a post on here "What we can include to XOOPS to get it friendlier ???" I am no developer, yet. I have decided to learn. MY goal is to learn this system and help develop some modules to make XOOPS better than yahoo or any of the corporate sites. XOOPS already has more potential than yahoo groups for the ADMINS. I want my XOOPS sites to offer my users a group hosting solution. One that is packed with features and that they can customize for themselves. I know that this is possible.

I think it will actually take more refining and combining modules than anything else. Herko's UserPage module mixed with a good independent forum for each group. (Doesn't have to be fancy... Even a modified guestbook would work and when the group owner hits install it uses their page number as a table prefix.) SmartFactory's SmartMail module works for all the digests and mailings, the old profiles module and that theme changer module re-configured. Change the name to MyGroup and put a mini-admin section right where Herko's edit button is. Take the application form from the blogs module and combine it with the MyFriends module and turn THAT into the group membership system.

Also, did I mention that your UserPage module is great? I love it! THANK YOU for a WONDERFUL MODULE.

Hello Herve,

Mainly I just want users to be able to create and administrate groups with a group page for each group, schedule events, send out reminders and have the ability to see and interact with other people in the group. A simple threaded forum for each group page, perhaps... (maybe with user pages and photos in the future.) I am looking for small applications that work on sourceforge right now. It seems like every time I find one it's a whole CMS. I want to find something that will work as a module for Xoops.

Thank You,
Preachur

I am also going to try to start a mod dev project for it. I would love to see this thing running on XOOPS. I am not very good at this stuff, so please come help if you're interested.

SCRATCH THE DOLPHIN IDEA. I'm going to try to port TWIG.

Actually, I found one better. It's a freeware php program called TWIG. I am going to attempt to wrap it in Xoops.

Has anyone considered porting the GPL software Dolphin Community Builder into an XOOPS module?

It has every feature I see people asking for in a group/ profiles module. I will help all I can.

Free dowload of the software right here:

Headlines with archiving

I had a module once that worked like headlines, but it archived the complete articles in the database and also allowed them to be edited by admins. I tried to find it again on sourceforge with no luck.

Does anyone know if this module still exists somewhere? If so, will it work with 2.0.16?

Thanks!

ummmm.... Dotcombuilder auctions are actually a hacked version of everyauction that they created templates for. It's all in perl and they are pretty functional for what they are. They ignore credits back to the original creators, so I don't feel bad grabbing their stuff out of script dumps and using it without paying.

I also grabbed the nullified phpmyspacegold out of a dump to check it out. Doesn't work at all. I was hoping to use some parts of it to hack together a groups module, but nothing looks useable.
