Multiple Forum Mod

[Hj Ahmad Rasyid Hj Ismail]

Try to use new PortaMX Sub Forum mod as feline mentioned above. It really works.

[FireDitto]

I would look into it, if I were able to find a place to download it, though from what I gather, it isn't available.

And I am not particularly keen to change from EzPortal to a new portal system, though the lack of assistance I've been receiving is starting to push me towards doing so.

Just pm feline. Better at her site. May be she can provide you with the mod since it has not been released yet. It is really a good mod though I am not sure whether it can work fine with other portal system. But you can have a try for sure.

EDIT:
When viewing a board, even the main ?action=forum kicks me the error.

First you have to restore the original query.

ur phone broke the formatting, kcmartz

[KensonPlays]

I edited it in Terminal on a LINUX DESKTOP, not my phone.

[Oya]

then why does ur post have the mobile icon?

[KensonPlays]

because when i REPLIED i was on my phone.

[Spoogs]

So it still stands that your phone broke the formating since you replied from your phone

[feline]

What I said, ManageBoards.template.php.

Then restore to the ORIGINAL file and test again ...

In case any of you still needs help with it, I just installed it on my forum and it works great. This is for RC3 (yes, 3) and I think it should work on RC2 as well. Here's a guide (they're the exact steps as what I did):

What you need:
- Primary forum
- Secondary forum

We start by installing the secondary forum. We'll call this forum TestForum2.com [nofollow] while the primary forum is TestForum1.com [nofollow]

Install the mod on TestForum1.com [nofollow] and create a new subforum which is TestForum2.com [nofollow]. The id of TestForum1.com [nofollow] will be 0 and TestForum2.com [nofollow] will be 1. From your FTP editor or whatsoever, open up TestForum2.com [nofollow]'s index.php file and paste the code you were given before the end of the file.

Code (TestForum2.com/htdocs/path/to/forum/index.php) Select Expand


<?php
...
...
// code goes here
?>

Once that's done you need to go to TestForum1.com [nofollow] admin panel and modify a category. Change the parent ID to 2. Go back to TestForum2.com [nofollow] and you'll see no changes. (Yes, you'll see no changes). Open up TestForm2.com [nofollow] admin panel and install the mod as well. If you don't, it's not going to work.

After that mod has been installed on TestForum2.com [nofollow], go to its (TestForum2.com) server settings->database and paths and make the database name and table prefix the same as TestForum1.com [nofollow]! Fix the paths to anything, and voila, you have 2 forums sharing the same database!

Enjoy
