Forum Administration.

Craka · **Forum Administration. -** 12-22-2002, 12:42 PM

When i go into the Admin Panel then click on Management, then click on a forum i get this page can not be found. The link is trying to take me here: http://www.mysite.com/modules/Forums.../viewforum&f=5

Any idea on what could be causing this problem?

Make sure you uploaded the Forum Admin files that came with the port.

html/admin/links
html/admin/modules
html/admin/case

there is one fiel in each of those directories in the pack theat need uploaded to overwrite your exisiting ones on your FTP server.

I did, and to make sure i did, i just reuploaded them overwriting the orig.. still same thing.

ok, my mistake, Looks like this is a bug in all templates..it may be related to linking on the phpBB port side..We are looking into it and going to notify Tom about it to see if he is aware of it.

i dont seem to have that problem on my site, unless im misunderstanding the ordeal here. it takes me directly to the Forum admin. but i may have done some editing along the way to make that work, im at a loss of memory at the moment :P

I've done nothing as far as editing goes. Perhaps i should have posted sooner about this because i have noticed it for a month or so but did nothing. Didnt bother me... hell still doesnt. But its best that things work they way they are suppost to. The guys(girls?) here have done a fluckin grade A job on the phpbb board for nuke so far. Bugs are just a part of the job i guess. :?

Actually I think the link he's talking about is when you go to your Forum Admin, on the left under Forums, is Management. Where you add edit create whatever all your forums. Well, once on that page, the links to click on the actual forums you have created are broken. They should be opening a window in a separate browser displaying the index page of your Forums. But it's not.

OK I have fixed this problem..It also exists for the Categoriy links as well as the Forum links under Forum administration, Management.

Do the following in your
modules/Forums/admin/admin_forums.php

change line 917 from

Code:

			'U_VIEWCAT' => append_sid($phpbb_root_path."index.$phpEx?" . POST_CAT_URL . "=$cat_id"))

to

Code:

			'U_VIEWCAT' => ("../../../modules.php?name=Forums&file=index&c=$cat_id"))

and change line 934 from

Code:

					'U_VIEWFORUM' => append_sid("viewforum&" . POST_FORUM_URL . "=$forum_id"),

to

Code:

					'U_VIEWFORUM' => ("../../../modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewforum&f=$forum_id"),

that should fix both the links under Forum admin Management now...shew :?

Wow, that's great mikem, thanks for the fix! I havn't attempted to any fixes on the forum side yet so this'll get me in there.
