I would like to deactivate the “Newsfeed Album” feature in 1.7 version. Because my
users don’t need that, and it does not make sense to have that. Let’s say someone post a happy birthday message with
a pic in the needs feed to a friend, now that pic (a birthday cake) will be in
a “Newsfeed Album”? makes no sense to have that and I’m trying to remove that feature
in 1.7 version.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Wilson

he wants to stop photos uploaded in newsfeed from going to the newsfeed photo album
or remove the album

he would have to edit all the news mod ,he would be better just turning photos off in newsfeed .If he is allowing photos in newsfeed ,its a bit daft wanting to turn off someone wishing a person happy birthday and posting an image of a cake .

to include pic in newsfeed albums yes / no

Tammy if you had a pop up ,which give you the opp to send an image ,most people would send an image .lol I would . I don't no what the big deal is sending someone a birthday cake,if you allow people to post images,this is only my view

Hey Guys, thanks for your input on this issue. Feedback always helps everyone!
Yes Tammy you are right, Pete…the Birthday pic post was just an example. Here’s another example Pete of what I’m saying here. Let’s say there is a bad storm and it destroys half the town, I post a photo in the news feed showing the town and I say in the post, please donate to the RED CROSS. I don’t need
that photo to be in an "ALBUM" …lol that makes no sense and like Tammy stated is kind of stupid.
So what I am trying to do is disable that feature that makes the "NEWSFEED ALBUM" in each user’s collection of ALBUMS. Makes no sense to have that "NEWSFEED ALBUM" in it.
FYI: That option is NOT in the "Newsfeed" plugin setting by the way Pete….would be nice or like Tammy is saying a "pop up" to confirm photo to "Newsfeed Album" would work. Still in search of a fix, any input would be very grateful.

Hey Pete,
Well hopefully someone can help and point us to the right code to delete or change. Like in other mod’s here in the forum. I’m sure it’s not that hard to modify, just need to be pointed to the right area. I’ll take a look at the NewsFeed plugin…but again I’m not sure what I’m looking for?
Still need a fix!

You might consider searching on google for a php coding forum ,and getting some help off there,that would be the best thing to do .Anyway I am sorry for the misunderstanding of your post,i was up all night and half asleep when I had a read at your post .
There is some good php coders on oxwall,but most wont help you to change a mod unless you pay for a custom job.

Wilson you well be waiting for ever on here my friend ,to get some body to tell you how to change the Newsfeed lol I well be very surprised if you get some one to tell you for free lol
good luck :-)
if you have no luck on here ,try here https://wizpert.com/php-programming?gclid=CPqTheLhv78CFSbKtAodIUoAXg
If you know abit of php ,have alook through all of the php code in newsfeed and see if you can find the code were its sending the images to image folder , I suppose it would look stupid if somebody is posting an image say of a birthday cake in newsfeed and its showing also in your photo album .Tammys idea was quite good with the pop up window ,but you would still have the same problem of images going also to photo album . Actual I am going to mention Tammy idea to oxwall about getting her idea implemented using a pop up window, in one of the updates
This bad arse script drives you fooking nuts at time

I have similar question few hours back, and my problem solved Aliia...
see:
you will need to comment our or delete following line from ow_plugins/photo/classes/event_handler.php:
$em->bind('feed.before_content_add', array($this, 'feedBeforeStatusUpdate'));

Yes sir, that’s a winner! Thanks Furyan Satoo and of course
Aliia! (she needs a BEER found link...lol)
Works just fine for me, had to delete the “Newsfeed” album that was already started. But once I did that and reposted a photo in the “Newsfeed’ area it did not make a new “Newsfeed” album in the “Photo” area. Nor did it say user added a photo to the “Newsfeed” album in the post area like before.
Wilson
ps, If looking for the code to comment, it’s at the bottom of all the code…last line…made my eyes water looking for it…lol
Find this file: ow_plugins/photo/classes/event_handler.php:
Find this code:
'getMainAlbum'));
