Once logged in the email is stored in userEmail variable which is static, which implies you can access logged in users email in any activity or fragment using
MainActivity.userName variable.
To add any functionality, add it in the existing fragments.
To add a new menu item (like Profile, Feed, Post, Subscribe etc) use the
res/menu/activity_feed_drawer.xml
To access its layout properties from Fragment.java, use the following code:
myFragmentView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_post, container, false); //example
Instead of findViewById directly, use myFragmentView.findViewById (only in fragments).
To use the context in any Fragment, use getActivity(); instead of this or Context context.
To add a new instance/page/activity create a new blank fragment with factory methods, call backs and create layout checked.
- For this fragment to be triggered, create a menu item, and make necessary changes to the FeedActivity.java
Previous Browse.java and postFind.java Activities have been migrated to FeedFragment.java and PostFragment.java respectively.
MainActivity, loginActivity, signUpActivity have no useful code, hence not included any where.
