Split Forum Mod

[dougiefresh]

Hey Dougie,

You modification is erasing permissions to the boards.
I just installed the mod on clean version of newest SMF and I confirmed it.

See the attached screens.

At the first is all okay, the permission is granted. But when I edit the group (and I dind't changed the permissions, but something other; for example the leader of the group), during saving a new options of group, it's deleting all previous permissions and I must granted it again. It's very annoying.

I hope you solved it as fast as possible.

Thanks again for great modification,

Okay, armed with the information from the previous post, I've duplicated this bug report.  I'm going to try to figure out what I've messed up, because this shouldn't be happening.....

Dear dougiefresh,

Did you found the solutions?
Users are impatient.

I've been trying to figure out how to code this properly....

[dougiefresh]

@JerzyLS: I've decided to start clean on the Sources/ManageMembergroups.php and ManageMembergroups.template.php, in order to correctly make the changes required in the code.  I have the next 2 days off, so maybe I can get something done on this topic.  Sorry about the delay....

[dougiefresh]

UPDATE: Sorry about the wait.  I've got the Edit Membergroup screen working properly now.  Working on the Add Membergroup screen now...

@JerzyLS:  Hopefully this update solves the issue you reported.  Let me if it doesn't!  Thank you!

Hello,

Very nice work
I was wondering if it was possible to instead of getting this message when clicking on a topic of a different subforum

Code Select Expand

AN ERROR HAS OCCURRED!
The board you specified is located on a different forum

Members would be taken to the topic wherever it's situated, and also when clicking on unread new posts members would see all the new posts from all subforums

Thanks in advance

I think that option called "Redirect board to correct SubForum instead of error message" will help you with this issue

Thanks can't believe I didn't see that before

I'd still like to know if we can see all unread content from all subforums, and not having that split apart.

Actually this was fixed in v1.16 so it limits posts only to current subforum. I do not have this version on my PC so I can't help you with it.

This is not a mod bug, this is a core SMF bug.

Hi dougiefresh:

I've been using your mod instead of PmxSubforums, and it's a great piece of work

However, I was wondering if you can add the possibility to move topics from one subform to another, at least from the main forum system.

Thanks in advance for you attention

[dougiefresh]

o Added support for SMF 2.1 Beta 3.
o Removed support for SMF 2.1 Beta 2.

Hi dougiefresh, I just have a small question: is there any recommendation about the DNS setings in the domain in order to make this mod efficient in redirections and such. I ask this because sometimes my website shows nothing, and I'm suspecting I have something wrong with the DNS redirections. Thanks in advance.

[dougiefresh]

Sorry, no clue....  I wouldn't think that your DNS settings have any effect on this mod....  Could be wrong...

I am unsure how to have the subforum show a different Logo?
I do have two separate domains if needed or could just point the the other.
But not quite sure how the Mod reads the other graphics and how it can be changed
so its not exactly like the main forum

[SaltedWeb]

Found a solution, since in the main forum the themes can be added to change the theme for the subforum. And I wanted the same theme just different logos I installed a second version of the same theme renamed it and then just edit the logo for that theme #2 since it creates a whole separate theme it wont affect the original.
I posted the solution because it may be desired by others to have a sub domain same theme different name. This could be done over and over for as many subs as you make just create a new theme with the same one rename its and you have all new theme you can edit if needed.
I was not thinking and know this is done for solo forums for holidays special events etc, but then realized same thing could be done just to the subforums theme.
