Forums Centre Block module

[earth]

ok, back on this one it is working fine now, so it seems and if anyone needs any help with getting it going, let me know!

Well the admin section involving the icons doesn't even seem to address read vs, not read posts at all, so I'm wondering if it has even been coded for that.

And there are no broken images - not when viewed from ie, mozilla, seamonkey, chrome, or safari ... so it seems it might not be a function but that seems really weird to not have that be an automatic thing.

look at the path in the modules settings...if you view in ie, it will show the blank img with red x is my guess, right click and img path should be incorrect, and adjusting the paths in the module config should do the trick

Is this one a MySql5 thing, or just a bug, as I've checked the code, and I can't see where I would need to put any brackets???

Hello everybody, is there any whay to add another 7 of top poster to the Forum Centre Block Module?
Thanks

[heliown]

I installed it in my test site. I did not get an error. However, the language in Admin is not English. Yes, I got a few broken images but that is not a problem to fix.

what are the paths to the broken images, that may give clue to something, as I would suggest to right click broken images and then add all the images into the folder where it is calling for the images, etc. and see if that helps, as that is same error that is commonly seen for sure.

One more suggestion would be try it all again, uninstall, reinstall and this time, scan first and let it define the forums for multiply and then adjust accordingly, as the other way was to pre-define and not scan for multiple forums, and just set it to 1 extra forum,. as I think can do it this way and also post up all the debug stuff, as I think the answer may be visible there, as well, if it is a language definition, as I think it was included in the zip, as, that is the other thing, what is all the language stuff doing, is any of it not defined and showing properly, as _UNDEFINED_FUNCTION_ETC...

Like to win this thing, as it took me over `100 hours to figure it out, as like to make sure you have the same DF version and Fpro Version, as the date format thing may be something bugging out the install...

ok I zipped up what is working on several installs, including the block, the module page, does not and has not ever worked for me on any df install or fcb version..

From fresh install,

9.2.1 DF on 2.0.3 fpro


1) Uninstall FCB
2) Delete FCB module directory, after uninstall(may not matter).

3) Install Then proceed with either google chrome or ie, so you can see if images are showing up, as some paths may need to be checked and seeing red x boxes, is a problem, imho, however FF does not show, so i.e, still need to know, as this could be an error.

Advance configuration, set 1 extra forum and these two fields:

ForumsPro

Quote::

1. Forums Module/ Folder Name: (e.g.: Forums0, Forums5, ForumsX)

fpro_

Quote::

1. Forums Second Prefix: (e.g.: forums0_, forums2_, bb2)

4) Scan

5) Post back results

[Heckler]

no one?

Installing it with Chrome does not work for me? What am I doing wrong? I downloaded the file from nukebiz, installed the module, and changed the prefix to fpro_

[earth]

yes, the version available here with the block that phoenix posted and as per my pm, the way it was installed,was via google chrome browser that seemed to have worked, as firefox install was fine, it is the advanced multi forum settings that was able to see the missing and present icons and obtain configuration success, think the forumscneterblock sets the default prefix incorrect and it has to be changed to: fpro_

No modifications to the built in forums required and seems to be flawless install in googlechrome, is my result cannot be expressed to try enough and verify this, as I have not re-installed to test to see if it resolves for sure, as with IE, was able to do as well, on once occasion!

[Heckler]

Does anyone have the Forums Centre Block Module for DF 9.2.x with ForumsPro????

[earth]

well, it does not seem to be related to the pro news or anything else, as it appears to be issue with fcb.

I resolved the issue and was able to properly install the module and configure it for multi-forums with forumspro latest release update by using google chrome, as before the issue occurred with ie config as the ff config icons did not show up properly, as partial issue with ie as well, however with google chrome it was flawless, as that is about the only good thing have to say about google chrome thus far, as it seems to not display portions properly, like forums pro blocks some worked and some did not...

so, needless to say, not sure what issue was or is, I do not notice the language for fcb config options in the css admin/fcb menu is not defined, so clueless what could be the issue, just like to suggest if anyone else has issue with install or anything to bump this thread if google chrome config and install does not resolve for now, thanks Daimos for a favorite block of many!
