Summary


Elgg has a powerful set of tools for sharing content. We covered the features provided by these tools so that can you try them out on your site. Beyond learning about the capabilities of the tools, we talked about design-related issues. Think like your users as you design your site. A great way to accomplish this is by developing use cases that describe how users might accomplish various tasks. From there you can develop lists of features and customizations needed to implement those use cases.

In the next chapter, we continue our in-depth exploration of the plugins distributed with Elgg by looking at the collaborative and communication plugins.
