If you've ever had the privilege of being part of an online community, it's hard not to realise the value of such a notion. The internet is a powerful tool, and the ability to near-instantaneously share information, opinions and commentary with one another via a medium that is now in the vast majority of homes is something...

elgg, development, user, plugins
During the last months I developed a plugin for Elgg to manage users, friends and groups comfortable by a RIA (Rich Internet Application) interface.

I was missing a download counter, like we have one in the elgg community website for every plugin.
This small extension shows a download counter on the right hand side of the file download button. (Default Elgg file plugin) To install, download the zip. Unpack in the mod file and activate it. Take care, it is below the...

The following is a general issue, and you can easy abstract this for other software, eg wordpress. I will write this in relation of elgg, of course.
If webdevelopers have the the task to work with short urls, e.g. if the want to use twitter to link back to their articles, they often decide to use a url shortening service...

I had a problem with the datepicker, used e.g. in the wonderful Profile Manager plugin. There you can add new fields. Fields also can be dropdowns and dates. You have to download and install the plugin if you don't have already - it's really a must!
