TUTORIAL: How to set Social Network ID

Multiple username/id is support. Just use comma separation for multiple id. Example: for twitter if you have multiple account you can use codeboxr, manchumahara – where codeboxr and manchumahara is twitter username of two accounts.

Facebook: This extension only supports facebook page (and fan page), need to find page id (Please note that need page id not page username). To find page id for any facebook page (and fan page) you can go in two ways. If your page doesn’t have any vanity url or username then your page url should have the id. If you already have the username for your page then need to find the id in tricky way. Please go to Facebook graph api explorer. At first it will some info for your profile. In the input box write your page url name and hit enter, it will show id and so many data. Or you can hit the url https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer?method=GET&path=username (change user name with your facebook page user name). See this screenshot. So the facebook page id will be something digit.

Twitter: For twitter just simply use your twitter username. https://twitter.com/#!/codeboxr . Here bold part is your twitter username. Please note that from Version 4.0 we added twitter connect option for twitter to avoid the api policy issue from twitter for their api1.1 version. So if you upgrade or buy the new version 4.0 or later please note that you need to click the “Twitter Connect” button from menu manager. It will take you to twitter and ask permission and if every thing goes well will back to menu setting page or module setting page, save the menu/module. Advance users can create application in twitter and set their own consumer key and consumer secret. New Twitter connect (from v4.0) is available from Basic setting of component’s menu in menu manager. See screeshots.

Youtube: Simply use your username . Example: http://www.youtube.com/user/mashable here the bold part is youtube username.

Pinterest: For pinterest simple use the pinterest username. Example: http://pinterest.com/mashable. Here bold part is the pinterest username.

Linkedin: It’s actually your linkedin network update via RSS feed. You have to put the secret url. To find the secret RSS URL please. Just click here. You must enable your rss feed and copy the rss url from that link.

Flickr: For flickr need user id not username. To find your user id for any username please use this service.

WordPress, Blogspot and Tumblr: Simple use username. Example: username.wordpresscom, username.blogspot.com, username.tumblr.com

Delicious & Digg: For delicious use your username: example: http://www.delicious.com/mashable. the bold part is the delicious username. Same way for digg http://digg.com/cnet here the cnet is username.

Reddit & Last.fm: For reddit to find username use this example: http://www.reddit.com/user/mashable here bold part is username. http://www.last.fm/user/Dix-Din here the bold part is lastfm username.

Instagram: Please go here web.stagram.com and connect with instagram and then login, My Photos, then check the rss feed link is at right side. copy this rss feed link. Example: http://web.stagram.com/n/manchumahara/ where my instagram username is manchumahara

Foursquare: Please go here https://foursquare.com/feeds/ and then copy the RSS feed link

Google Plus: Example if your Google Plus profile or page URL is https://plus.google.com/104289895811692861108 then put the last digit as profile or page id that is 104289895811692861108

 

Timeline per User (New from v3.0 and only for j2.5)
Now it’s possible user can set his/her personal timeline. For this at first admin need to enable this feature from the component option/setting and then user will get option to enable disable timeline for him/her and set his own social networks.

Jomsocial Integration (New from v3.0 and only for j2.5)
Now we are providing a free plugin for jomsocial to add a menu in jomsocial toolbar so that user can access his/her timeline easily. Though it needs that admin enable the timeline for user and user enable timeline for his/her.

Timeline as Module(New from v3.0 and only for j2.5)
We are happy to release the My Socialtimeline as a module. Some customers wanted this and they want to show the timeline in home page or other page with another extension. So besides components now timeline can be integrated as module but for module there will be no separate timeline per user. It means for timeline in module admin can set all necessary social network from module setting.

Reviews & Testimonials

My Social Timeline: Great Service

The extension works well, integration is perfect and it is very easy to use. Have a look at the screenshots if this fits your needs, what you see there is what you will get.

I had installed a very outdated version of Joomla 1.5 so the extension did not work straight away. I contacted the company and they gave great service, responding to me and solving the issue (which was entirely my fault) within a very short time frame.
