New CommunityEngine Theme!
Quick, go check out the CommunityEngine demo site (CommunityEngine is an open-source social networking plugin for Ruby on Rails). Notice anything new?
CommunityEngine has new default theme! Special thanks to Andres Galante for designing it!
PLEASE NOTE: if you are already using CE, this change may impact your application! The new theme replaces many of the old views, and if your application depends on them, I’d advise checking out the CommunityEngine Extras repository, where you can find all the old views, images, and stylesheets used in the old theme. The new theme is in place starting from version 0.10.1 of the plugin (here).
Enjoy! (More updates coming soon…)
CommunityEngine Updated to v0.10.0
Just wanted to let everyone know I tagged a new version of CommunityEngine which adds support for draft and published states for blog posts. Please note, this requires a new migration, so if you previously installed CE, you’ll have to run
ruby script/generate plugin_migration
and then
rake db:migrate
Don’t know about CommunityEngine yet? Well, it’s a free, open-source social network plugin for Ruby on Rails applications. Drop it into your new or existing application, and you’ll instantly have all the features of a basic community site. Read the announcement post or check out the CommunityEngine site.
Announcing CommunityEngine - A social networking plugin for Ruby on Rails
MissingMethod is releasing CommunityEngine, an open source Rails social networking plugin that you can drop into your new or existing application, instantly giving you all the features of a basic community site.
Lately there have been a raft of Rails social networking applications, so how is this one different? Well, other open source solutions like LovdByLess and OneBody are packaged as complete applications, while CommunityEngine is built as a plugin. This makes it easy to customize and even override its functionality.
For people who are interested in adding community features to an existing application, or for people who want to manage multiple communities using common code, CommunityEngine should be quite useful.
