CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi All,

I'm trying to use Forum made simple in combination with CMSMS MLE. It works well of course, but I want to have a different forum for each language. Anyone know if it is possible to categorize the "forums" to create communities, or how to make multiple instances of the forum module?

Thanks in advance!

With 0.9.2 (but it's not finished) you can select which forums display.
You call module with {..... forums="name_of_forum-$lang"}

Hi Alby,

How far are you with the 0.9.2 ? Do you have a beta I can test or are there things I can do to speed things up?

I have a lot of PHP experience so if I can help please let me know.

Best Regards,

Chris

Feel free to download SVN version (forum full moderator don't work now), I don't test very hard but I think that work report to moderator also

Hi Alby,

The parameter you gave me worked quite well. There was a bug in action.admin_delete_forum.php

$q had to be $sql (2 x)

Is there also a way create a link in my menu to open de content of a forum? Not the forumlisting but the content of the forum?

I could use a external link and the very long url, but that would not be a great idea...

Thanks in advance!

What you mean for my menu? with MenuManager?
I can think to new attribute "viewforum=true" with forum="XXX" (XXX is one only) ......

That could be an option. Perhaps as a new content type. That would be realy handy, but is it possible in the current software architecture?

If I remember correctly in the older version < 0.13 etc there was a contenttype news ... a content type forum would be useful?

What do you think?

I remember that content type in 1.X is deprecated (same for News) but I don't remember why ...
