Member	greyzet - 5/3/2011 2:38:21 AM Facebook-like wall page Is it possible to setup a Facebook-like wall page, where all news are reflected - new blog/forum posts, video uploads, new users, groups, new group members created/added, etc) ?

RE:Facebook-like wall page

Hello,

The built-in features enable to display different document types (i.e. new blog posts, news, CMS.File-s) by a Listing web part like Repeater or Datalist. But it does not allow to display new users, new group members and so on. You could develop a custom data source to get needful data from database and display them by Basic repeater od Basic datalist.

Using data source web parts

We will consider the described web part as a new feature to next versions.

Best regards,

RE:Facebook-like wall page

hey a bit late to this party. came across it looking for something else :)

creating/editting pagetemplates for facebook usage is pretty simple. my company has implemented it for a number of our clients in both kentico and wordpress. we have built custom photo competitions based on 'likes', and other rich pages with CMS data.

check out the 4 custom tabs at https://www.facebook.com/MallesonsGraduateCareers

it is gated with a Like.

happy to pass on some knowledge if you still need some answers.

cheers,
ben
