SEDef Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Hi there. I wan't to know which forum is best to use with osc. It's not necessary that forum and osc have the same db of users. I just wan't to know which forum looks fine with osc and if you can change the template of forum in that way, that forum looks like osc page. It would be great, that someone who uses forum on osc page, would paste the link to that page here, so i can look at it and see how it looks. I wan't to make my osc with forum and don't know which forum to use. Thanks
mtechama Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 well you can use any type of forum most forums uses a seperate db's. here you can see mine if you like at http://forums.mtechama.com Wade Morris Amarillo, Texas Before you do any changes on your site you need to do BACKUP! BACKUP!
rabbitseffort Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 he is asking for one that is integrated into the shop layout, like the smf contribution is "I must admit that I personally measure success in terms of the contributions an individual makes to her or his fellow human beings." ---Margaret Mead--- "The answer is never the answer. What's really interesting is the mystery. If you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. I've never seen anybody really find the answer -- they think they have, so they stop thinking. But the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. The need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer. --Ken Kesey"

rabbitseffort Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 I think you have to logged in as a customer to use the forum--only registered customers can post I think--maybe I will install it to see "I must admit that I personally measure success in terms of the contributions an individual makes to her or his fellow human beings." ---Margaret Mead--- "The answer is never the answer.

rabbitseffort Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 I just installed it and get the same issue--there must be some instructions missing--I emailed the author of the contribution and am hopeing he emails back, it didnt hurt the shop any so at least that is good--I am sure it will sort out soon enough--if I get an answer I will post back "I must admit that I personally measure success in terms of the contributions an individual makes to her or his fellow human beings." ---Margaret Mead--- "The answer is never the answer.

rabbitseffort Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 you most likley did what I did and downloaded the newest package thinking it was a full install--well it isnt--go down to the first install pack and then follow the updates after that one.

SEDef Posted March 21, 2006 Author Posted March 21, 2006 Please inform me--I am still not able to get it right! This is bugging me now! The forum works now. But when i click on the thread in the forum i get 12 lines of Warnings in the Categories box like -> Warning: in_array(): Wrong datatype for second argument in /home/public_html/catalog/includes/boxes/categories.php on line 41 And the other thing is, that i can post empty message. I can leave fields with * empty. And * means - (*) These fields are required
SEDef Posted March 21, 2006 Author Posted March 21, 2006 Ok, i fixed this with warnings, but i'm still able to post new message that is empty... But everything works fine and i have forum that i need! Great!
