Did You Know?
The flux Developer Community has a brand new face! You might have noticed the new design, but we've also added a Wiki! Whether you're a new flux Admin or a seasoned developer, you can find all the documentation you need on the flux Developer Wiki.
Beginning 7/8, all communities are now using the new flux Profile pages.. The new profiles contain all the same great elements of the old profiles, plus some fantastic new features as well:
  • New profiles put your content front and center by highlighting only friends, videos and photos from your community by default.
  • You can use the new Community Feed to broadcast content and messages directly to your members' My Feed modules. Click here for more information about the Community Feed.
  • The right column is completely customizable by Admins. Click here to find out how to customize your user profile pages.
You can build a module to highlight more than one type of content or data on your site. You can use the Feed module to show: videos and photos in the same view. Or use tabs to show videos in one view, photos in a second view, and members in a third view - or any other combination of content and/or data.
For more information how to do these and other cool things with modules and FML.
