"Just forum"

#2 Re: FluxBB discussion » Search page with no forums? » 2011-08-03 06:16:46

IMO, this is because php+html mesh smile
If you place necessary code BEFORE page generation, you'll definitelly know all just at time: "No available forums" is the same as "Search is disabled for this group" and must produce error message.

Are you looking for more information about this kind of BBCode:

[topic]1[/topic]

Grhmmm. I mean topic link in wiki and page link in forum. Cross-referenses.
And Yes, I know, these haven't in engine and this site yet. But anybody did it?

Thank you Freeman! Your case is very special.

Isn't it obvious? I mean the practically the same like in wiki. Something about:
[ page ]unfeatures[ /page ]
instead of
[ url=http://fluxbb.org/docs/unfeatures ]unfeatures[ /url ]

Have anybody single entry point to search in topics and wiki pages?

What can I change in index.php to make it list only, lets say... category ID #2 and its forums? Something in the SQL query? Any advice, please let me know. smile

I'd take a chance with the first query in index.php and add extra condition. Something like

... WHERE c.id=2 AND ...

OR

modify forums table: add extra column, let say, `public` int default 0
then set public flag to 1 in some forums and the first query in index.php set to

... WHERE f.public=1 AND ...

As a moderator should you not be able to change topic titles?

You have to be members of Moderators group AND be appointed moderator of this forum.

#8 Re: FluxBB discussion » Need to List Just One Category's Forums » 2011-06-27 02:53:40

artoodetoo

It depends on SQL query in search: INNER JOIN or LEFT JOIN with categories table.

Anyway, data inconsistency can provide unexpected results and accidental errors.

When you deleted some categories, can you find the "hidden" messages by search?

#10 Re: FluxBB discussion » "Powered by" footer altered » 2011-06-16 03:01:16

artoodetoo

I've changed copyright in footer somewhere. Because of:

  • people not interesting what engine it powered by

  • production is not only fluxbb but something else too, it'll be stupid to enumerate whole bunch here

  • it's place to put copyright of content writers

Thank you quy!

Yes, I didn't check permission for "aliased page" because of my experience. Look at real example please:
http://nf74.ru/index.html (or translated)
The main content of this frontpage was made from moderator-only post. You can see page content and cannot see the original post on forum. I think it should be so: no permission check for "aliased page".
Moderator decides what post to share!

But sidebar feed cares about permissions. It looks differ for guest/members/moderators. It's my oppinion, you can have yours.

The string like & is strange looking, perhaps some JS failed to escape/unescape url string.

M1, do you use FCKeditor in your forum?

Next, I made full installation pack to test.

Features:

  • install.php creates "About" menu item and page.

  • Moderators-only board for pages.

  • You can use 2col.tpl template and your own sidebar.php for pages.

  • Forum index moved to forum.php. If you define alias "index.html" in Pages plugin, it will your "main page".

Example: About page
portalpage.png


Download my pack

I appreciate your feedback.

Edited: download link updated

It seems to wrong Javascript in forum, not suspicious, but incorrect. May be your previous version has some mods that doesn't work with new version.

For all FluxBB forum owners. Make your own "portal pages" or "articles" ease.
All you need is to submit some post, copy it's URL, next go to Pages plugin and set alias for this URL.

For example:

Alias: fancybox.html
URL: http_://mysite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=4959
(I've broke the link advisedly)

Then you can use http_://mysite.com/forums/fancybox.html as standalone page.

What it looks like:
pagee.png

I advice to permit read/write access to some forum board to the Moderators group. Moderator will post and link topics as "pages".

Apache mod_rewrite or smth identical is required! How it works:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} \.html
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+) page.php?alias=$1

All non-existent URLs containing ".html" will be redirected to page.php

You can download plugin and instruction from rapidshare

Another way is <pun_include 'myfile.php'>. I'm avoid to edit header.php or footer.php.

I made some OOP wireframe with Fluxbb authentication.

https://rapidshare.com/files/505321830/fluxbb_auth.zip

<?php

class App extends Component
{
    public $cookie;
    public $userModel;
    public $user;
    public $timeout;

    public function __construct(array $args = NULL)
    {
        parent::__construct($args);

        $this->cookie    = new Cookie(Registry::get('cookie_params'));
        $this->userModel = new UserModel(Registry::get('user_params'));

        $this->authenticate();
    }

    public function authenticate()
    {
        $now = time();

        $authCookie = $this->cookie->getAuth();
        if (!empty($authCookie) && preg_match('/^(\d+)\|([\da-fA-F]+)\|(\d+)\|([\da-fA-F]+)$/', $authCookie, $matches)) {
            $userId = intval($matches[1]);
            $hash1  = $matches[2];
            $expire = intval($matches[3]);
            $hash2  = $matches[4];
        }

        if (isset($userId) && $userId > 1 && $expire > $now) {

            if (Security::hmac($userId.'|'.$expire, $this->cookie->seed.'_cookie_hash') != $hash2 ||
                is_null($user = $this->userModel->getById($userId)) ||
                Security::hmac($user['password'], $this->cookie->seed.'_password_hash') !== $hash1) {

                $expire = $now + 31536000; // + 1 year
                $this->cookie->setAuth(1, sha1(rand()), $expire);

            } else {

                $expire = ($expire > $now + $this->timeout) 
                    ? $now + 1209600         // + 2 weeks
                    : $now + $this->timeout; // + 30 minutes (by default)
                $this->cookie->setAuth($user['id'], $user['password'], $expire);
                $this->user = $user;
                return TRUE;

            }
        }

        $this->user = array('id' => 1, 'name' => 'Guest');
        return FALSE;
    }

}

There are punbb/fluxbb authorization check for DokiWiki. Google it.
