Mambo Open Source

[whiterabbit]

Thank you for all interest in Mambo + SMF component.
I have been away for awhile.

As I stated on my web site, the integration was an Alpha version and was NOT a Publicly released, so it would be better to limit the distribution.

SMF RC1 released, the component beta will be coming soon

Since, unlike Mambo, SMF is not GPL license; thus if I will make the integration public release I must contact SMF dev. team beforehand.

Cheers,

[Oldiesmann]

Keep us updated on this. I know someone who would be interested (just re-vamped the site - from a custom site + SMF (converted from YaBB SE) to Mambo).

[LaurieC]

Glad you are back from vacation whiterabbit. Hope you enjoyed it! I am very interested in the SMF + Mambo integration as well.

I need a portal soon and I have the feeling Kevin won't be ready soon...

Please do keep it coming!

I have a Mambo site with SMF integration as well.  Excellent combination.
I was looking at Coppermine for a Gallery and then found zOOm Gallery by Mike Deboer as a Mambo component (version 2.1.2 is working wonderfully)

My only real concern with all of this is that Mambo 4.6 will come out and all of the add-ons will be broken until their respective developers adapt.

humm, zoom gave problems me.  I integrate cpg in my site, by means of brigde to the data base of smf, and cpg put like wrapper, was very simple.  watch as it works in http://www.aestoaspiramos.cl

and see in http://www.magnificentworld.net/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,30/topic,58.0.html

SMF RC1 integration with Mambo,

Problem is that JZ hasn't made the SMF RC1/Mambo 4.5.1 RC3 integration available publicly yet.  When he does I'll be jumping on this. The really neat thing about it is that it appears you can link direct to your forums OR open them in Mambo wrappings.

[Thunderace]

You could allways link direct (standalone) or wrap in Mambo 

[yardbird]

yeah I might direct link it as a standalone for now, but still install it into components/com_smf and feed it the Mambo database name. That way I should be able to do the integration easily when JZ gets it completed.

[Orstio]

I made a mod to Mambo's registration, so that it automatically writes the username and password to the SMF members table.  New users should be able to register, and use their username and password immediately without the confirmation form on entry to SMF.

If you have SMF RC1, Mambo Open Source 4.5 and WhiteRabbit's integrated component, this should work for you.

You can download the modified Mambo registration file here:

http://www.everything-science.com/uploadfiles/registration.zip

(Could somebody who is able to attach files do that for me?)

Unzip and upload to your com_registration folder.

Note that this will not synchronize existing users.  It will only synchronize new registrations.


Edit: file attached to this post as requested

[whiterabbit]

actually in the PM I meant you can post it on my board, since I will not edit anything Mambo's (for compatibility's sake), and it will help people who need it, and over there is more related to the integration than here.
But this is a good help.

For the people who have installed the integration, if you like, you can try this Mambo modification, and if you have any problem I may be able to suggest something and also Orstio, I believe you can ask him for suggestion as well. Thanks.

Yes you can if you have read my post in the early stage of the integration, it was
among my intensions to make it so SMF can work as stand alone as well as Mambo component.

[Orstio]

I can post it at your site as well.  I thought here may be more appropriate, because people here are focused more on SMF, and making registration from Mambo to SMF for the end user simpler would be of interest here.

[BCCZeus]

I've got a Mambo/SMF integration working over here.  It's an active site, but I still have some templating to do to make the forum appear like it belongs.  Awesome support and work by whiterabbit and all the people over at the Magnificent world.

[NEMINI]

I'm looking forward to the public release of this

[The Anvil]

So how is it comming along? Any more exciting news? 

Yea, I'm very very looking forward to this because i'm about to start a Mambo site, and would love to have an SMF board to accompany my new site.  Hope everything is going well, and the release is soon. 

[Orstio]

I have made a functioning Mambo-SMF bridge, without altering any SMF or Mambo source code.

I will have a Mambo component installation package ready in a few days, hopefully.

[Orstio]

Here it is:

(Again, could somebody attach that for me?)

Follow the instructions in the readme file.  Please note that this bridge will not work with WhiteRabbit's modified files.  You must have the original SMF files to make this work.
