Group Wiki Pages by Default

(Apologies if this is in the wrong place!)

This isn't a bug or issue, so if it's in the wrong place I apologise! I just need a little advice. Two questions, in fact.

1) On my group pages I have a little dropdown menu pointing to various integrated features (discussions, albums, and the like).

I'd like to add the group's wiki pages to that dropdown menu linking to this page:

http://www.enworld.org/forum/showwik...mpaign&do=list

I can't work out how to use some kind of (variable?) to make sure the link goes to the correct group's pages. I tried various combinations of {vb raw: blah blah} I could think of, but none worked.

2) Is there a way to have group wiki pages activated by default? For whatever reason, a large proportion of my users fail to figure out how to active 'em!

1) If {vb:raw group.url_s}do=list is not available for your template, e.g. the url_s field is empty, then I have to think about it some more, if it is even possible to get without using a plugin.

You can also try this, which may or may not redirect to the right place:

Code:

wiki_index.php?title={vb:urlencode {vb:raw group.name}}-gid:{vb:raw group.groupid}&do=list

2) There is not currently a way to do that. We can surely add a setting for that, and possibly a user preference.

That sort of works, but not quite.

This is what the correct link is:

http://www.enworld.org/forum/showwik...mpaign&do=list

What it's doing is:

http://www.enworld.org/forum/wiki_in...id:220&do=list

So it's keeping the apostrophe, and using + instead of -

Yeah, unfortunately there is not a good way to get the URL from inside the template directly, since it is not available in that context. In vB4, all variables must be manually provided to a template. You would have to use a plugin to do this. I don't know how your template works, or if it's just an edit, so I don't know what the best hook location would be. But basically, you would add the wiki URL to $group like so:

Code:

if (class_exists('vw_Hard_Core', false)) { $stack = vw_Hard_Core::controller('UI/Stack')->get_stack(); $wiki_group = end($stack); vw_Hard_Core::model('URL')->get($wiki_group); vw_Hard_Core::model('URL')->array_map($group, $wiki_group, 'wiki'); }

If the plugin is used in the right place, then you should have access to the wiki URL like this:

Code:

{vb:raw group.wiki_url_s}do=list

Hmm. Probably a bit beyond me. It's the main group overview page, and a few individual pages I managed to cobble together by copy/pasting bits of templates and stuff without really understanding what I was doing.

Not to worry. It's not vitally important!

1) Implemented in the next release. A new $vw_context variable, which contains the current wiki page info, is exposed to all templates. This should make it viable for basic-type navigation links and conditions in XenForo 2.x. $vw_context is also exposed to the navigation manager in vBulletin.

2) In the next release, added a new setting to automatically check the box to activate wiki-functionality for new social groups in vBulletin, if the user has permission to use that box. The default value is now checked.
