User profile links broken/missing [#2854612]

Hi, I am not a developer but am a fast learner..

This should be easy, i need some help on this...

When i click on user accounts like "shaun berkley, peter shaw, etc" i get directed to this page /core/install.php/user/14/stream....
I later discovered how to get to their profile pages by clicking on the posts they created.
I hope you know what am talking about,

It appears the Profile page link at the top of the node and the User profile link on their posts are different, because cahnges I made to the user Name is not reflected on the Username at the top of the node...

Checkout the picture.. I edited Peter Shaw to Peter Showman.

How do I fix this?

Thanks in advance

I think this is just occurring with the demo user content added at install. Try adding new users and test again. I believe it works correctly. Thanks for helping test and improve Open Social.

Thanks for your response,

Update: I later discovered its all links that are on the top of a post lead to (Susan williams) /core/install.php/user/9/stream and /core/install.php/group/1/stream (Local School Group Springfield).
both links lead to open social saying Drupal already installed.

I even tried updating my database but there's no pending update.

Secondly, I wanted to delete or hide comments by editing and clicking "save and keep published" on the posts... but its not working.

@Rosemeria, following your suggestion, I made a post new post as an admin and promoted it to front page, but its not showing up!
It only shows up on the side block under "upcoming events"

I'll appreciate your help on this,

Thanks

@deeray

A couple of responses.

#1) You should not need Docker at all. I believe that the only reason to install Docker would be if you are contributing code back to the project and want the precise development environment. I have Open Social running on my Mac and on a remote server without Docker.

#2) Regarding getting new nodes to show up in the activity stream. Try running CRON (see #2855079: Provide configuration to force all activity messages to be run direct and not in the cron)

If you are not familiar with CRON, go to: CONFIGURATION >> SYSTEM >> CRON and click on "RUN CRON"

#3) To Delete Comments

Go to CONTENT >> COMMENTS >> where you should be able to view, edit and delete individual comments.

#4) To turn off comments on a specific blog post or topic

Go to CONTENT then click on the NODE you wish to hide or stop comments on. At the very bottom of the page, you can adjust the settings for comments on that specific node. If you want to turn off comments for all content of a specific type, then you need to edit the Content Type in a similar way. (NOTE: If you turn off comments on a content type, it will not effect nodes that are already created).

#5) I don't have an answer to your original problem. I image it has to do with the way OPEN SOCIAL has its files structured. You need to redefine the location of ROOT to the html directory. Is this Drupal site on your Windows laptop? Are you using WAMP or Aquia Dev Desktop?

Ahaa! Thanks alot! your response number 2 did it...

What caused my Initial challenge was I wanted to edit the Demo Users Account (change name, pics and posts)

So I just created fresh users, and new content, then Ran CRON, and its working fine.

I really wished closing this issue, but I've observed something new

New COntent type, I created myself is not showing up in the front page even after running Cron.

Only content type that comes with the Distro are showing up in front page after running cron.

And yes, I selected "promoted to front page" and ran cron... its not showing up

Another minor concern is the social share icons are not showing up on new content types I create
