1.) Is there a way to use my own favicon with SMF? If so, how?
2.) Are there any modules that allow display of calendar items (upcoming events, etc...) for Joomla?
3.) I'm having problems getting the most recents posts module to work. No error messages. The title shows, but no items show up. Any clues?
Peace, respect and thanks...
I only know about #1 (don't use Joomla), but:
Yes. If the forum is in a subdomain (forum.whatever.com), you can just dump the favicon in the root. Or, if it's in a folder (whatever.com/forum/), you can put it in the domain root.
If that's not possible, you can make a quick change to index.template.php:
Find:
<meta name="keywords" content="PHP, MySQL, bulletin, board, free, open, source, smf, simple, machines, forum" />
And add right below it:
<meta name="favicon" content="http://whatever.com/the/full/path/to/favicon.ico" />
Don't forget to substitute the real path in ;)
this should be asked specifically in the doard dedicated to the mambo/joomla bridge!
Favicon for a bridged site would be determined by Joomla, not by SMF.
I made a calendar module for use with a bridged site... actually I made two. Event list and graphical calendar.
Do you have the actual bridge running? You need the bridge before the recent posts module will work... or you need to make changes in the module code.
