I think this question gets into the weeds of Rails, but here goes: I’m trying to figure out how to display the owner or owners of each group on the group index page (equivalent to this page ). My starting point is the group model , which implies to me that the group owners trait is not directly atta…

I’m not totally clear on what you are trying to achieve, but I think you are looking for GroupUser . You can get a list of group_ids and their owners’ user_ids using something like: GroupUser.where(owner: true).pluck("group_id", "user_id")

Thanks, this is definitely a step forward. My goal is to display the owners of a group under the group name on the group index page. EDIT: For example, something like this: <script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="components/groups-info"> {{#if showFullName}} <span class="groups-inf…

You’ll need to write a small plugin to serialize the correct information. I saw your Marketplace post. Hopefully someone will take you up on that!

This is extremely helpful–thanks. Understood you’re not able to provide further code help, but I’m hoping I can ask two general questions that others might find helpful too: –Can you say briefly why a serializer is necessary here? (trying to understand not only for this but also other customization…

[afbeelding] JQ331: Can you say briefly why a serializer is necessary here? (trying to understand not only for this but also other customizations) Sure :slight_smile: The data isn’t exposed by default in the BasicGroupSerializer . We only include what we need. It’s a bit of a maze to follow, …

Awesome. Thank you very much for this helpful info.

Hi @tshenry , I am trying to get a plugin going that includes some code like you provided above for exposing the group owner. One question I am sorting through: –the relevant model here is “group” (that is referenced by the groups-info) –but in the serializer, you don’t say: add_to_serializer(:grou…

[afbeelding] JQ331: Why do you reference basic_group, instead of group, in add_to_serializer? It’s because ‘basic_group’ is the name of the serializer in this case: discourse/app/serializers/basic_group_serializer.rb at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub

How did you identify that serializer as being the right one for this case? This is what I can gather: In the groups controller , in the index action, there is a render_json_dump function (or method) that includes the BasicGroupSerializer in the serialize_data call. The relevant page for displaying …
