CB Activity new use for spots display

Well you answered all of my questions with these triggers

I think I can try to implement something in the coming weeks using only CB. As you said trying to use what's there may be tricky but as you guys develop your software so cleverly, this is a sure bet for us.

We'll see when/if we grow quickly but for now this was a good strategy.

Another question : will the share feature be in CB Activity beta ? can you implement a router for Activity to enhance the urls ?

Another question : will the share feature be in CB Activity beta ?

Probably not in the initial beta as the initial beta is to help test the existing feature rewrites. Following betas or RC should have it though.

can you implement a router for Activity to enhance the urls ?

Yes, CB Activity will have custom routing so they'll be SEO friendly URLs. For current CB Activity there's no such routing though. So with 6.0.0 you'd have something like the below.

site/menu-alias/activity/ACTIVITY_ID_HERE

Perfect I start to implement our modifications and should test it on the dev server as soon as CB Activity 6 beta is available.

Thanks for the answers

Your trigger usage should work now so you're welcome to go-ahead with giving that a try. CB Gallery is using those triggers to add uploading so in theory you can add any kind of new feature you can think of you CB Activity edit/new/save behavior.

Just an idea, could you implement a mix of different things in the router ?
For instance a URL that would mix all activities combining assetA.id and assetB.id looking like site/menu-alias/activity/GJ_EVENT_ID_HERE/ACTIVITY_ID_RELATED_HERE

Also when on a standalone page like I cannot access [var1_xxx] in the auto action with a trigger like activity_onAfterDisplayActivityStream while [var4_xxx] works fine
Can you tell me why ?

Have also tested [cb:parse function="asset" class="var1" /] for instance without result

No, GJ and everything else has nothing to do with CB Activity routing and would just be a nightmare trying to convert that into a path to CB Activity. If you want something like that you'll need to add your own custom routing.

var1 is an activity object in activity_onAfterDisplayActivityStream. This is shown below form out triggers tutorial.


So the stream is in var5 while the activity entry is in var1. You should be able to use either of the below.

Activity Asset = [var1_asset]
Stream Asset = [cb:parse function="asset" class="var5" /]
