Hi,
sorry for late reply, it was a weekend
The plugin is build with a customized version of CakePHP (it comes from version 1, but most of the code has been rewritten).
Unfortunately you cannot add fields to Groups natively, anyway you can do this by following these steps:
1) Create column in table #__jsnsocial_groups for example "new_field" (VARCHAR)
2) Create the input field in the html
- Access to Admin Panel (
http://docs.easy-profile.com/index.php/article/social-network-configuration)
- Go to Theme Manager
- Choose "SocialNetwork Theme"
- Choose the file to override from left menu (Groups->create.ctp)
- Click on button "Copy"*** and copy it in "Blue Theme"
- Come back to Theme Manager and choose "Blue Theme"
- You will see your override to customize.
- In this new file you can add something like this after line 75 to create the new input
<li><label><?php echo __('New Field')?></label>
<?php echo $this->Form->text('new_field', array('value' => $group['Group']['new_field'])); ?>
</li>
3) Delete folder "cache" at /plugins/jsn/socialnetwork/app/tmp/
NOTE: this modification will be still active when you update the plugin in future (layout changes is a theme override, so it will be not rewritten)
