Mambo Open Source

[Kris]

Is this optional?
Also the login component  want work so i guess registration makes not much sense till both work.

You can also put it before the </head> in your index.php from your portal.

mos_smf_registration_b_3(i dont know for which version this is cause its not mentioned anywhere....)- SMF login - when i try install i get=XML setup file is not for a "component".

The registration contains two zips inside it.  one is a component, and the other is a module.  You have to unzip the main package, and then install each.  The entire thing won't install as one component.

[roboter88]

I did extraceted till i had 2 zips.... eg. registration.zip and loign.zip login not working.... it gives me a XML error under 4.5.1 i coul dinstall the register with no problem....

[Orstio]

The login is a module, not a component.  You have to go to your Mambo admin/Install Module for that, not Install Component.

any news on a SMF -->Mambo Migration?  That would be great. Currently, I have them registering for both, which is a bit much.  I feel bad about it.

[Orstio]

I'm working on it, but I can't guarantee a time.   

[trenchteam]

Thats fine Ortiso. The fact that you took the time to work on it at all, is great to know.......

ttt...

Good work gentlemen! Keep it up!

[Kris]

I made some modules that display through ssi the different subsets of data as you see in ssi_examples.php.

Will share them later this week in a larger zip. Still need to make some to cover all of them.

HrM Ok I've read this thread and everthing is in such a flux I am not sure what the proper steps are.  I am at a lucky stage of starting from scratch.  I have Mambo 4.51 installed and running, i'm about to install SMFRC1 .. what do i need to do so that users only need to register once, and login once to access both the portal and the forums ?

[roboter88]

If any1 need a beta tester PM me.

Running latest public  mambo (4.5.1a)


cheers

Thank you, I fixed it.  You should be able to download the zip and install just that module.

Your registration link should say "&task=register" at the end, instead of "&Itemid=99"

For those afraid to upgrade for fear of breaking something;  I just applied the Mambo 4.5.1a patch to upgrade from 4.5.1, and the bridge still works, same as before. 

I recommend the upgrade, actually.  It fixes a few security issues, and the site seems to load faster.

I have a clean install of Mambo 4.5.1a and SMF 1.0, I installed the bridge component with no problem but I can't get to the config. In the readme it says:

"Edit the file config.smf.php in the com_smf folder to reflect the path to your SMF installation.  This will be the relative path from your Mambo index.php.  For example, if your Mambo index.php is at "http://www.yourdomain.com/index.php, and SMF is at "http://www.yourdomain.com/SMF/board/index.php", your path to SMF would be "SMF/board/"." 

If my mambo index is /var/www/html/index.php and SMF is /var/www/html/smf/index.php then I would think the path would be "smf/" in config.smf.php. But it doesn't work. Any help?

[Orstio]

Try getting rid of the trailing "/".

I've tried a number of combinations but I always get sent to the Mambo control panel when I click on edit config with SMF bridge. Is there a separate config for the bridge component alone?

Anyways, keep up the great work!

I haven't written a configuration editor yet.  You'll have to change the path manually.

Orstio,

First of all this is in no way intended to be insulting. I'm going to ask a couple questions about which I am admittedly ignorant and I wanted to state that up front because typed stuff sometimes doesn't come across the way we want.

I went to (what I think was) your web site to look at the SMF-Mambo bridge.   I created an account at the Mambo login/create account on the home page. After account confirmation I went to home page, logged in, and then opened forums. I was not logged in to forums, but rather I had to log in again.  Is this bridge simply passing user info between the 2 databases, but not actually logging in to both at the same time? (and I realize "simply" is probably a poor choice of words considering the work it takes to make this happen).

If I'm understanding what's happening as things are right now.... when you create an account in Mambo... Mambo passes that info to SMF, so now you're in both user databases. I wouldn't have to create an account in SMF, but I would still have to log in both in Mambo front and in SMF when I click to forums.

Is that correct?  Or have I missed something?
