Current status of the Ning Platform is always available on the Ning Status Blog.

So I started to let a few people join my site and I asked them to post content.

I watched their process and realised most people want to begin blogs, photos, videos from their member page. Yes its good to go to the community section but this is how a good majority of my people was thinking. So instead of fighting it I figured go with it. So I decided to add a Link Bar in their member profiles so they could get to the add Blogs, add Discussion, add Videos pages and then BAM!!!! I hit the wall.

Adding Photos is a totally different process from a developer point of view. Every other section you have to input info into the website, but Photo's are uploaded via a form.

 

Ok so, I tried to easily copy the code from the Photos page that gives you the little  "+" sign and BAM!! IT does not work.

So right now I can get the pic files to be seleected from my hardrive, but there is some element that is making the form go once a file is selected.

 

The Question

I know you might say NO but, can I have the code that will allow me to Upload a photo via the wording + Add Photo. Or at least by the "+" icon?

  • some how we got on a tangent with @Matthew Aukai Wright  can we have a solution to the main post? There must be script that can be written to make the pictures upload from the profile pages directly.

        //Photo Add Quick Link
        // Holding div for the link
        x$('<div/>',{ class : 'OpenStatus-Links'}).appendTo('.js-statusForm.statusForm');
        x$('<div/>',{ class : 'OpenStatus-Links'}).appendTo('.tabContainerSection-pane.section-member-activity.js-statusForm.statusForm');
        x$('<div/>',{ class : 'OpenStatus-Links'}).prependTo('.tabContainerSection-pane.section-member-photoEntries');
        //ADD LINK TO OPEN THE PHOTO PAGE
        x$('<a href="http://thisisbully.dog/photos" class="OpenStatusAddPhoto" title="Add Photo/s">Add Photo</a>').appendTo('.OpenStatus-Links');
        </script>

        <script>
        // Hide the add photo link if not a member
        x$(document).ready(function() {
        if(ning.CurrentProfile == null){
        x$(".OpenStatus-Links").hide();
        }

        • It looks like your code just sends them to another page and they have to click again, am I correct?

          • It's not my code but what was shared some months ago its the closest anyone could of got to the quick add work around it have to open up another page and take you to the photo page, No one even ning could at the moment get you a workaround for this feature its why they are doing over the activity feed

      • dont take offense. He just said he had an idea he was going to try and he never got back to me. And now we are sort of working on plan B and I am not sure energy was put to Plan A.

        • Hi there!

          No worries I haven't forgotten about that, unfortunately, I haven't had spare time to take a look into this deeper since I have to finish more prioritized tasks first.

          Apologies for keeping you waiting.

          Best wishes,

          Ning Team.
