Deprecated - Social software and communities

aside from the admin, there are other roles created by the admin who could also administer and manage users. and because of this, there's a need to hide the admin from being viewed among the list of users and operators. there's a good reason for resorting to this.

in this connection, how do we go about this? what is the best solution for implementing this? please help..

Hi everybody.

I am looking for the way to insert field type linked to Taxonomy's Tags/Categories to allow administrator to include this field into user profile page. This also will make possible to ask user to type his personal Tags during registration.

Anyone who has any idea - please, reply.

I'd like to have a page in which people can "edit" as a group.
A good analogy for this is an e-mail, Each person (can) comment in line, and the "conversation" is nicely indented.

so, I think the worrld is round,
> I agree on this point
and therefore we should all eat blue cheese
> I dont see how you come to this conclusion, can you explain?

This seems like nice functionality, that I have implemented on a different site (powered by a wiki engine that I altered to do this).

Now I want to implement the same for drupal.

The question is how.

One option is as a filter - each person edits the full page, and uses some hieroglyphics to "indent" their text. Thats what I did on the wiki powered site, and I guess it would not be hard to do as a filter...

However, I am wondering about a different approach, providing "comments" throughout the text. In other words, in standard "email" you get to comment on every new line. What about commenting on each paragraph.

I was thinking of making each paragraph into a "comment" and then that would mean people could reply to each paragraph. Of course, some nice theming would have to be done so the thing didn't look horrid, but....

So - pro's - it would use functionality already in Drupal - I'd simply need a filter a bit like the pager-module to split things up into comments....

I'm trying to setup an otherwise fairly simple social networking site (profiles, blogs, forums or groups) where a single user can have multiple personas or profiles. I'm not looking for something that makes it easy for people to create sock puppets, but rather for people to have different profiles and nicknames related to different interests. Dogster.com/Catster.com are good examples of sites that do this, where each account can have several cats and dogs assigned to it and each animal has it's own profile and posts as itself to blogs and forums. Yahoo makes it easy to have and switch between multiple profiles, but it's not transparent that two profiles belong to the same person (in fact, I'm not sure that an outside user can tell.) I see this as useful for those of us who wear multiple hats (the vast majority of people who read my Middle Eastern culture column are not interested in my opinions on system administration and I know several people who have multiple myspace or youtube profiles because their interests are so divergent that otherwise people get lost in the stuff they don't care about) or for a family site where each family has it's own account (created by an adult) but each child can have their own profile and post as themselves from within that account.

Hi, everyone!

I am trying to implement Drupal's feature similar to former FOAF module. This suppose to:
1. Find FOAF and then give an ability to show site's registered users as FOAF, Friend, etc. (e.g. place an icon for each category).
2. Implement content browsing permissions, based on the following criterias: Public, Friend, FOAF, Private.

I would appreciate anyone to leave any thoughts about described above or contribute in any other way.

I've got a custom module, og_pci_custom, which I use to tack some extra features onto things that og.module does.

I'd like to make some changes to the Group checkboxes (added to the user registration form by the og_user function). Specifically, I want to change them from checkboxes into a multiple-select box. I have 150 groups and that's tooooo many checkboxes.
