smf mosbot discuss

[jorgen]

Ooops, try this:

Code Select Expand


if ( (strpos($row->text,"{mos_smf_discuss:") === 0 && !isset($default_discuss)) || $_REQUEST['option'] !="com_content" || (strpos($row->text,"{mos_smf_discuss:nodiscuss}") !== 0) {

I'm sure there's a better way to do this but I'm still pretty new with PHP.

Thanks for yet another attempt, Chadness. But I couldnt make that one work either. And my own PHP-skills ate practically noneistent, so couldnt make it work on my own.

I think I'll clear the default board for now, and add the {mos_smf_discuss:} manually where I want it.

But it would be great if Orstio could add a test when automatically adding the link to default board. The link should not be created if the article is a static content item.

I got another problem with the 3.01-version of the bot.
I cleared the default board from the bot-settings, and then "{mos_smf_discuss:} " appears on the bottom of all articles even if I have not defined any bot-text in the article (also static items).

See an example at:   
http://www.inventorforum.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=99&Itemid=65

Does the bot behave like this for others as well, or have I messed things up?

Is there perhaps a space in the textbox for the default board in the bot params?

Where do I find the smf_mosbot_help.php file?  I didn't see it in the zip file.  I've added the mambot, but it doesn't work, so I'm guessing this php file will complete the installation.

well, the smf_mosbot_help.php file has no actual function with the bot...   it just displays a list of the available forums that you can call for.

in order to use the bot, you need to a) publish it and  b) either configure it to add a link to every article or add the link thext to the articles that you want...

I have a problem (what a surprise -_-") with the Bot. It works good, when I put in News as default board. But then it displays the Forum link at every entry (as it is supposed to). But when I leave the default board empty, it's nowhere displayed and I can't add the link.
it just writes it there then.

example [nofollow]

=\ anyone an idea how to fix that?

[Orstio]

Have you published the bot?

[Kagemaru]

I did... and as I said, when I enter News into the default board text field, it works as it should.

edit: If it helps, when the default board is set to News and I write {mos_smf_discuss:} it works that the forum link is not displayed. But the {mos_smf_discuss:} itself is displayed still.

[Orstio]

You know that you can enter {mos_smf_discuss:no_discuss} to get rid of that, right?

[Kagemaru]

nope, thank you. ^^

But the other problem remains still with me =\
*just uses {mos_smf_discuss:no_discuss} for now*

I use: MOS_SMF_BRIDGEv3.19a_SMF1.1b3.zip, Mambo 4.5.3 and SMF 1.1RC1

Everything work except the discussbot.  If you leave the Default discussion board: blank then I will get {mos_smf_discuss:general} in the content where I added it.

If you add "general" in the "default discussion board:" then I will get (0)

What am I missing?

Thanks

There's a bug in that version.  Either put no_discuss in for your default discussion board, or better yet, uninstall that version and install this version:

Yea, I found that after I post this.

Thanks
