Bridge Xoops-SMF 1.1 RC3 Beta 1

[X-Ception]

Ok i checked SMF error logging, and i see this

Undefined index: xoops_showcblock
File: /***/***/*****/**********/httpdocs/core/templates_c/%%AD^ADD^ADD7E5D3%%theme.html.php
Line: 116

which obviously relates to xoops

[X-Ception]

Ok downgraded xoops to the 2.0.13.2 release BUT ! seems perfectly fine now so... thats  better. Once its working on 2.2.* il be hopping upto that

I'm stuck, no more testing for me. Can't get it to show anymore. No error. 

[X-Ception]

in 2.2.x i get the same result,
in 2.0.13-2 the bridge works inside the xoops but the login block always says "do not have permission to access that area" ( tho i will say i REALLY disliked the 2.0.* xoops permission/block system

in 2.2 this is greatly improved, personally i put the issues down to having to support so far across the line with current xoops versions.

2.0.* was decent, but lacked a lot,
initially 2.2.* sucked so bad, but since a huge code cleanup, its now great compared, BUT now there is 2.3 on the way and eventually xoops 4 which is in development .... mind boggles, i cant imagine how the developers keep up with it all...

i suppose its the same here with SMF 1.0.* and 1.1.* but to be honest SMF handles it far better with support for one and or the other - tho i do like to see that phppp has made a move to support all of the above mentioned xoops versions, it will hopefully spur other developers to follow his trend ...

( not a rant @ SMF/Orstio - a rant ar xoops version support and hows its handled atm making it very hard for dev teams to work in total compatibility as well as users trying to get the correct software. )

Orstio,
Is there anychance you can make the first RC1 available again, till you get time to work on the next version ?, the previous RC seemed to work other than few link issues

BTW i tried your joomla version of the bridge, very very good work, hope the xoops one can come to something close to that, tho joomla .. i just cant wrap my head around the section side of things, the rest is great, anyhoot.

Thank you for your efforts thus far, I'm sure you will come up with the solution in time

[X-Ception]

Is this possible ?

[Orstio]

I don't keep the old versions, and even if I did, they would have been lost when my HD crashed last week.

Sorry, but I'll need to make it work with Xoops 2.2.x yet, which means cleaner code.  That's probably a good thing, in the long run.

Sorry to hear about your hard drive, happens to the best of us. I'll keep stum till your able to release the next version, i can imagine your like me when mine died many moons ago, a hazey mist of trying to remember whats tools you had and dont have now and then when you need them its back to googleing for them .

Anyway for now il hang back but when its ready for the next alpha/beta/rc release il be more than happy to help test it out

[Lance_]

i've got both versions if you still need 'em. 

[X-Ception]

It would be very much appreciated if you could get the first Alpha to me Lance_

[Lance_]

aight, check PM.

Cheers.

so does anyone have this working in the newest version of xoops? I can't seem to get it to work.  What I really want is for when you goto the forums, it opens outside of xoops, I have a fixed width xoops and it looks funny if it includes forums inside of it.  But I can't even get it to work  any ideas? Or are we waiting on new code?

have a read back, it seems the first version did have issues with themeing etc, these were fixed in RC2 but i could only ever get this to work in xoops 2.0.* and not 2.2.*.

Since then the developper ( Orstio ) has had some personal computing troubles which lead to lossage of data which i would assume would also include his own fixes for the next RC(3?).

till this time its just a case of await and see but i do know Orstio does a lot of work my assumption is he does most the portal bridgeing work since his site is bridged to every major cms i can think of ( joomla seems to take presidence )

for now just await and see... im sure it will be worth the wait

No data loss on the latest fixes:  That's one of the advantages of CVS.

[offtopic]thought CVS was a dieing format compared to SVN [/offtopic]
Good to know

any ideas when you will have the next alpha up?

my members moaning .. there not easy pleased .. dam them.

[Grandnegis]

Any ideas when the login problem will be fixed.  I have everything working perfectly but as it sits right now suers will have to login to xoops and then login again when they click on the forums.  Would love to get rid of the double login.  If there is a work around let me know but I will have and arcade and chat within xoops so I want people to have to login to use that and of course you need usernames to show up beside topics they are posting.  Anyway let me know ASAP please, I want to get my revised site launched by the end of the moth and this is but a little cog in the big machine.

You can see what I mean by using the following link;

Use the bridge login block instead of the Xoops login block.

Use the bridge login block instead of the Xoops login block.

What login block?   I dont see any option for a login block in the Xoops config screen and I see nothing on the code side.

[Orstio]

Go to your Xoops admin panel.  MouseOver on the System Admin icon.  Click on "Blocks".

Set the block labelled "Login" to not visible.

Set the SMF Bridge Login block to visible.
