Since the code is for Dokuwiki and not FluxBB, no, it can't be a FluxBB extension

Ok, I had mistakenly thought there would be changes required with both the forum code and the wiki code. So I just have to drop the authentication code into the wiki and it should 'just work'!

Franz · 2008-05-30 09:21:06

Uhmmm... the wiki's login system does not work

Smartys · 2008-05-30 10:39:07

KO: The authentication layer is Dokuwiki code. If you upload the file and configure Dokuwiki to use it, it will "just work"
lie2815: It works for me

No. you will have to remove them manulay

SuperMAG · 2008-06-04 18:10:17

you got to be kidding me

elbekko · 2008-06-04 18:53:37

Yes, it's all a big ploy to kid you.

Felix · 2008-06-04 19:27:12

How should FluxBB know what mods you have installed and what tables they have created?

Smartys · 2008-06-04 19:32:19

Yes, FluxBB should definitely be dropping any tables it doesn't recognize from the database. That's a great idea. It's not like that would have any impact on other systems... oh wait.

Popov · 2008-06-04 19:40:54

Please add bg (Bulgarian) to the wiki. I'll translate it.

Smartys · 2008-06-04 19:41:42

Done

Popov · 2008-06-04 20:04:10

Ok. Thanks. I started.

SuperMAG · 2008-06-04 21:41:35

ok smart people how can you tell which mod is that table and remove when you have more then 100 installed ....

i have a simple idea that a kid can make up with it .... why not make a script that remove all the tables that are not recognized by 1.3 ... or that are not in 1.3 tables list

Connor · 2008-06-04 22:19:06

SuperMAG, take it to a new thread.

It would be nice with some info about websiteintegration in the wiki. Maybe some pun-stuff can be "translated" to flux-stuff?

For e.g; http://punbb.informer.com/docs/dev.html#integration

When searching the flux forum its mostly "use external.php" and the next msg is "dont use that", and maybe a third saying "just use this, pull it from db" without how its done :S :-)

Smartys · 2008-07-22 11:52:06

And that is why we wouldn't use the PunBB documentation
It's an old holdover from the 1.2 days. extern.php, as was said in the topic that you obviously read, is meant to be used to syndicate data outside of the current site. If you're on the same site, you likely have access to the database, and therefore running a query and fetching the results will give you less overheard than a full extra HTTP request.
I don't happen to have time to write up a good wiki page on integrating content, although eventually there should be an extension which provides helper functions for doing just that.

theUg · 2008-07-22 21:11:45

1.2 is still a current final release of FluxBB, so it wouldn’t be prudent to completely forgo its support or respective wiki.

Smartys · 2008-07-22 21:32:49

The advice itself (use database queries over HTTP request) isn't any less true for 1.2

And there are syndication pages for 1.2 and 1.3 that describe how to use them.

theUg · 2008-07-22 22:19:13

Mayhaps I am looking in the wrong place or looking for the wrong things, but all I see is extern.php this and extern.php that.

Smartys · 2008-07-22 23:53:09

Yes, when I said "them" I meant extern.php. It's a how-to on syndicating content, not on integrating existing content into your site.
