I was pleased to learn of an easy method to add a tab to the AS Profile for SunBlogNuke's blog. Here is the article that showed me how to do this:

Is there a similar method for doing the same with other modules, particularly for digArticle articles? I've poked around and thought I had seen something in the past on this site, but cannot locate anything that describes how I could accomplish this. I'd very much appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

Thanks,
Steve

moved to proper forum.

This is really something best addressed by digArticle. Maybe one of our other customers using digArticle might be able to provide some more information.

My thanks to Mike at DigArticle for providing the following method of integrating DigArticle into Active Social's Profile:

Create a page and add the DigArticle Dashboard. The page can be hidden. In my case I set the page permissions to All Users but I might change this to a specific role later. Make a note of the tabid for the page and mid for the module. (You might have to click into Settings for Dashboard in order to see the mid in the URL.)

In Dashboard, select Articles as the Article Source. Under Filter, select Use User Filter. For the UserID Querystring, use "asuid" (without the quotes). Don't forget to apply the default or a template of your choice, then save.

Go to /DesktopModules/ActiveSocial/config and copy profileviewtabs.config over to httpdocs/Portals/0/activsocial. (My portal is 0 but it could be whatever portal you're using for this.) The reason you're copying this file over is that it will prevent your modifications from being overwritten in future upgrades of Active Social.

Open profileviewtabs.config in Notepad. Somewhere between


and


add

 
Replace "XXX" with the values for TID and MID that you noted. Save the file.

That should do it.
