problem with Forum latest posts

[davids355]

I am running cmsmadesimple 1.5.1 here:
http://www.shareworld.co.uk

I have Forum 0.9.2 running and on the home page I have "display last posts" configured (you will see this near the top in the middle).

My little problem is that when you click on a post, it takes you to the forum home page but not directly to taht post.

Wondering if there is a way around this?

0.9.2 has not control of single post (know forums only)
Look to 0.9.3 or 0.9.4 in about a week

Ah thats great Alby, I will install to my test-site later on tonight.

One other thing as well, that I was trying to get around: if someone is reading a post, then they login, it takes them back to forum home (and not back to the post they were just reading). Is there a way around that?

No, in this moment in FEU there isn't a referer check for this.

Ok Alby, have installed the newer veresion of forum made simple on my test site here:
http://test.jastac.co.uk/sw_test/TEMP
username: statcounter
password: statcounter

Still, on the latest posts on the homepage, if you click on them, it just takes you to the forum home page (have a look).

This is the code I have on homepage (brought in by a global content block):
{cms_module module="Forum" action="last_posts" num="2"}

Other than that, I like the new forum! and new features. Another good feature might be email notifications when someone posts..?

Depending what you would charge, I wouldnt mind paying to get this working, and possibly in the near future wouldnt mind paying for further development of the forum?...?

I'm running a not-for-profit site, so can't really come up with much in the money stakes, but can vouch that the users are very keen for that particular feature too.  I did think that with the newest modifications to it (if it generates an event that can be handled) it should be possible already, but i might be confused..

Yep, confirmed ....
I have already solution and come in with next version (with I think a ajax process for move sections/forums in admin)

yes, I add events for this reason: have a good flexibility to implement new features
