Title:
Allow admins to customize "social media" options
Status in Mahara:
Confirmed
Bug description:
If you go to "Content -> Profile -> Social media", you can provide a
list of your usernames in various social networks. We've also provided
an "other" option to let this encompass additional types of social
networks. But! It's still a hard-coded list. The important networks
will shift over time, and depending on the circumstances of the
institution running Mahara.
When we updated this from the previous system (which listed mostly
instant messaging systems: ICQ, MSN, etc), we stayed with a hard-coded
system because it was easier to do. But in the long run we need to
make this system flexible, to allow admins to customize the options
listed here.
This will be challenging because the hard-coded system allows us to
also generate custom URLs for each system, and provide custom icons
for them. With a custom system, I suppose we'd want to provide some
kind of variable-based URL generator, and/or maybe fetch the favicon
for the domain name?
