Greetings all,
I am very, very impressed by the efforts you all have made on SMF 1.1rc and integration with joomla. I have followed Orstio's step by step instructions on my joomla 1.0.8 and smf 1.1rc2 installation, and it seems all is well. I have the forum wrapped, using SMF registration. I've applied the fix to make the login work across both joomla and SMF.
The only major bug so far that I am able to find beyond template and configuration issues is that when I click on a board name it gives a plain vanilla, ugly 404 error instead of displaying the board. Clicking any other link on the SMF page works great!
Here is the error message:
QuoteNot Found
The requested URL /joomla/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,88/board,2.0 was not found on this server.
Hope someone has an answer - if so many thanks in advance.
Best wishes,
Tobias
Have the same problem. But it's even more curious: From another Joomla install on the same server and bridging the same forum - it works fine! Was not able to resolve it, config, templates and Joomla version of the two installs are entirely equal... SEF is on on both.
And I need the install to work on the 1st one!
Triend uninstalling com_smf along with all the modules and reinstall - no luck.
Any ideas?
Just curious--- If you put a "/" on the end... does it work then?
Hi,
in the new htaccess.txt that comes with Joomla 1.0.8 (that you must have renamed to .htaccess) find the line:
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/component/option,com) [NC,OR]
and uncomment it like this:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/component/option,com) [NC,OR]
As they write inside the same file at the notes at the top:
Quote##### SOLVING PROBLEMS WITH COMPONENT URL's that don't work #####
# SPECIAL NOTE FOR SMF USERS WHEN SMF IS INTEGRATED AND BRIDGED
# OR ANY SITUATION WHERE A COMPONENT's URL's AREN't WORKING
#
# In both the 'Standard SEF', and '3rd Party or Core SEF' sections the line:
# RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/component/option,com) [NC,OR] ##optional - see notes##
# May need to be uncommented. If you are running your Joomla/Mambo from
# a subdirectory the name of the subdirectory will need to be inserted into this
# line. For example, if your Joomla/Mambo is in a subdirectory called '/test/',
# change this:
# RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/component/option,com) [NC,OR] ##optional - see notes##
# to this:
# RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/test/component/option,com) [NC,OR] ##optional - see notes##

afonic, THANK YOU. This solved it!
Tell me where to send the crate of beer :P
You're welcome.
Forget about the beer, shipping would be 3 times the beer itself. Next time you're out drink one for me! :D
That worked great - many, many thanks Afonic! :-)
Cheers,
Tobias
