Configuring the VKontakte Group Module

After installing the module, you need to configure it. To do this, specify the ID of your group. You can get it from your group’s address, which looks like this:

http://vk.ru/club17291036

Look at the numbers at the end of the link: 17291036 — this is the group ID you need to enter in the module.

If your group has been renamed, the link will look like this: http://vk.ru/joomline

  1. Go to your VKontakte group.
  2. Find the "Management" link.
  3. Under the address bar, you will see "Community number"
