SMF Discuss Bot - " The board you specified doesn't exist"

You might want to try using 4.1 beta 5 - it doesn't mess with the layout as much.  It's not as pretty, but....

What are different from 4.1 final to 4.1 beta 5?

[chadness]

Mostly it's sending the posts through SMF's BBC parser, so that all of the code tags, smileys, etc., look the same as they do in SMF.  However, this is what is probably messing up your layout.

I'm not sure did I undestand you well...

I'll never show posts on my Joomla site, just links.

[chadness]

If you never show posts, the differences are very minimal.  These are the only ones you would run in to, and they are extremely minor:

• Added ability to have a seperate description if there is only 1 comment (so you can have singular and plural descriptions).
• Reversed the way the discussbot image was pointing.

I think this might be related to something specific in your template being messed up by my call to SSI.php.  Orstio just posted this might happen.  I may need to totally rewrite this to prevent that from happening.

I have same problem with rc2+oristo 3.20 + discuss bot 4.1

Just to confirm, Chadness, 4.1 wouldn't work with my template... messed with ssi.php call. 4.1beta5 works fine. Thanks again.

[chadness]

No problem.  I have to re-write it to not call SSI.php when I get time.

Same layout problem here. Ill try switching to beta 5 now.

[VTX]

Beta 5 works fine.

I was thinking about it, and if anyone with the layout problem could try turning off the option, "Allow code, if enabled in SMF?", I'd be interested to hear if that fixes the problem.

I turned it off, and it still messes up the template. Just so you know

[chadness]

Thanks!

What other SMF related modules do you have on the pages that are messed up, besides who's online and the login module?  I think the conflict is related to a latest posts type of module.

I have this layout problem too.  After publishing the bot v4.1final.

My whole template is messed up.

I have a 3 column template (left, user, right).

After publishing this bot, everything that should be in the left and right colums appeard underneath the user column.

I had to unpublish the bot for it to work.

Using Joomla 1.0.8, joomla-smf v1.1.02

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
