Plugin Subscribe Group
Introduced with Tiki 2
If you have allowed users to subscribe themselves to (join) a group, you can use this wiki plugin to allow them to subscribe/unsubscribe to a specific group. Please see PluginSubscribeGroups for a similar plugin for subscribing/unsubscribing to more than one group.
Security and permissions
- A user must have the perm
tiki_p_subscribe_group
to be able to see the box
To set this permission go to Settings > Groups - The group must be set as being a user choice
To set this configuration go to Settings > Groups
Parameters
Usage notes
- If you use this plugin with the plugin GROUP, be careful that if GROUP is used first, the change will not immediately be shown. GROUP used after SUBSCRIBEGROUP will be fine
- A module with a filter on the group will be affected as soon as the group is changed
Examples
Basic
This code:
{subscribegroup group="Editors" subscribe="Subscribe to %s" unsubscribe="Leave %s" subscribe_action="Name of subscribe submit button" unsubscribe_action="Name of unsubscribe submit button"}
Would produce:
or this screen
Advanced
It is possible to make a link to toggle from subscribed/unsubscribed status to some group called GroupName by creating a link to a page which contains this plugin and adding the following parameters:
group="GroupName&iSubscribeGroup=1&subscribeGroup=text"
Example:
http://www.example.com/somepage?group=GroupName&iSubscribeGroup=1&subscribeGroup=text
Of course, this works if the user is logged in, and GroupName needs the correct spelling and capitalization.
