Support UI Components

The SDK provides the following default activities. All activities are included in the lia-ui module.
Note: Our Login component (LiLoginActivity) is included in the
lia-corepackage.
This is the main entry point for Community Support UI actions. The activity includes a header with search, an options menu, and two tabs. The Articles tab includes a navigation component to browse community categories and boards, message post actions, and recent messages posted to the community in descending order. The My Activities tab displays messages posted by the user, as well messages from the user's subscriptions, messages the user kudoed or selected as a solution.
Layout file: li_activity_support.xml
Displays a list of articles for the current board. Includes a button to launch the LiCreateMessageActivity.
Layout file: li_activity_articles.xml
Displays the message thread. Includes author and message data, including kudos count and accepted solution status. Users can kudo messages, accept solutions, reply or comment, and share the message.
Layout file: li_activity_messages.xml
Creates a post form to create a message. The user can select the board to post to, if different than the current board in context. Image upload is supported. After posting the message, the user the My Activities tab in the LiSupportHome activity displays.
Layout file: li_activity_ask_question.xml

The SDK includes the following fragments. You can use these fragments with our out-of-the-box activities or independently in custom activities.

Layout file: li_fragment_ask_question.xml
The abstract base fragment class for our UI elements.
Pulls the community structure and builds a navigation component to browse community categories and boards down to the message level. The fragment respects settings in Community Admin for categories and boards set to be hidden from lists and menus.
