By request, I have written another access plugin. This one eliminates the “private” and “logged in users” options leaving only “public.”
That’s all it does. Not much else to say but download here.

Hey Steve,
I’ve been following a lot of your work since I came across elgg, you truly are a pioneer!
I’m assuming the option to limit the Membership Private/Public is done in somewhat of the same manner, i’m afraid I don’t speak PHP well enough to figure out how though. Any tips on that one?

Interesting question. I could see circumstances in education where one would not want to allow private groups.
I don’t really speak php well either, but I can usually figure out a hack. Yes I believe it would be done similarly through the views override system.
Getting ready for some conference presentations now, so I don’t have time right now, but I’ll see if I can put a plugin together.

Hi there,
I found your plugin and it really helped me. As you I am not too good in readin php but somehow pick things together and modify them as I need.I yoused your plugin and some hints I found in the mailinglist to do what shnelson want (disabling the “logged in” option) and additionally set the default selected choice to public.
As I am using the invitations plugin with the walledgarden option I do not need to differentiate between “public” and “logged in” but rather use only public to see an activity stream on my modified frontpage.
It is not a plugin for its own yet, I just modified yours but I could post it somewhere if someone needs it.

Sure it’s a plugin. You modified it and it changes the function. Name it and pack it up with a manifest!
You could upload it to Google groups or the Elgg Community. There will be more options soon.
I am not a php coder myself, but I have some references around. I don’t mind editing a bit of code, or coping and pasting snippets
Steve
