Question JomSocial and Kunena user profile data synchronization with forum settings

Hello,

I wrote system plugin and additional JomSocial field type, that should help to integrate user profiles between JomSocial and Kunena.

Example JomSocial fields:


Example system plugin configuration:


Example completed form:


And effect on Kunena profile:


Of course, this is two-way synchronization. OK, how to install it?

First unpack community_fields to components/com_community/libraries/fields, next install plg_system_jomsocialkunenasync. After install I suggest add, configure or update JomSocial fields, but at the beginning is an optional. You must configure system plugin to works.

This is prerelease version of community fields and system plugin, You shouldn't install on public site. Please, test it and report bugs and suggestions.

Kind Regards

Developed on Joomla 1.5.22, JomSocial 2.0.4 and Kunena 1.6.2

Updated... Added condition to test if com_kunena triggered plugin. Without this com_user purified values of JomSocial profile.

Thanks for this plugin

You welcome. I think I should add documentation for the code and help messages inside xml file.

Great job thanks...

In community fields improved bookmarks ini file and the php code is documented now. In system plugin php code is documented too, but with more changes:

* separated php code to separate classes
* changed the names of several methods and plugin params
* improved condition in event for Kunena to JomSocial synchronization
* added language strings for plugin configuration (description of params)
* php code is documented now
* anything else?

1.0RC2 had a problem with the installation, so solved and updated to 1.0RC3...

This version is not backward compatible, You should reconfigure system plugin, but community fields not. Please check my English in language file!

Kind Regards

Known problem:
* user data is not synchronize during JomSocial registration process (I'm not 100% sure, because on public site such problem exists, but on my test site works fine, so I will check it)

I will fix it soon.

Hi Piotr,
I'm interested to integrate more the Kunena and JomSocial in my website.
Hope you're ok there. How's your plugin doin?
Any updates?
Thanks

yeah would be good to have kunena and jomsocial more seamlessly integrated (eg not having to double up with profiles)
