associating and embedding posts to particular Groups
-
i’ve been trying for a couple of days to find a way to embed a post that’s written by a particular group member in the Group he belongs to.
can anyone PLEASE offer some help in how i might associate a post with a group, via tags or category or however, and to embed the (really simple) content within the Group?
does that make sense? please can someone offer some assistance? requests for help in these forums don’t seem to get much attention to me.
thank you very much,
GN

Have you tried Blog Categories for Groups?
yes, in fact i’ve been trying it, along with Simple Front End Post, and I finally got it to work so that i could see “Create a Post” under “Blog” in the group, but when i did so, the post doesn’t appear in the Group – still says “there are no posts” or whatever it says.
i get impatient when i have to force plugins to work right and i was about to just give up; why i was asking for help…
any ideas? the post is supposed to appear in the group, right?

Everyone here is a volunteer. Nobody is obligated to answer your questions – especially ones steeped in entitlement.
If you want more attention and faster attention – hire a developer.
Or at least use gist to share the code you’ve written in attempting to find a solution.
For your task, I would use the Group Extension API.
i was trying buddyblog, too – they seem quite similar, as they’re by the same author, aren’t they? are they different?
it’s not entitlement, it’s just (clearly unjustified) expectation. my questions were very simple questions for BuddyPress aficionados. and i’m not the only one who gets ignored in here, it’s apparent.
please excuse me for asking for help. i’ll know better next time.
and at least i wasn’t rude.
i use buddyforms developed by sven for similar thing…but its a paid plugin..but its the only one which works with front end user posting for me atleast….you need to buy the paid buddyforms plugin and there are several free supported plugins for buddyforms by sven which can be found on the plugin repo…
