[plugin] [ORPHAN] TXPhorum 0.3 / A simple forum solution for Textpattern

Alex007 · 2008-08-11 17:07:21

Hi All

I have done exactly what Timid has done here and am getting the same results

A brand new clean install of 4.0.6 and all the plugins from TXPhorumInstallation and it hasnt installed any of the PAGE, STYLE, FORMS, ARTICLES and LINKS ;(

I goto the THPhorum help and click the ‘Install default installation’ link but it does nothing.

Can anyone please send me the sql? i am in desperate need of getting this up and running?

Thanks
A.

Thanks Timid&friendly – I am now using the txphorum but i seem to have one problem – i’m not sure why but the login wont keep me logged in! I manage to login and then when i click on a discussion it seems to kick me out ;(

I have had a look on the following forum http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?id=8799&p=49 to try and work out whats wrong but haven’t had much luch.

Does anyone know what the obvious problem is? it something to do with the cookie ign_stay not being set to the value of 1? do i need to set a value of 1 somewhere to keep the cookie set?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
A.

I had the same problem. It wasn’t all the time though! that was for me the annoying thing. It’s still not solved. I’d love to know the answer too

I have managed to get it working, i am not sure what version of ign_password_protect your using T&F but i am now using 0.5b9 and it seems stable ;)

Does anyone have any idea how i can add an extra input so that a user can upload a file? possibly using some functionality from txp_file.php

Or has anyone added this feature any other way? or is there a plugin i could use? i am trying to use mem_form_file but it doesn’t add a browse button?

Try this version of mem_form — it fixes the file download “browse” button for me.

I’ve hopped for a new release of TXPhorum with one click install working…
But time flies and I’d really like to run and test TXPhorum now…

If anyone can send the sql…

Thank you !

Hi,

I’m working on a discussion site and I’m trying to configure TXPhorum to work with my existing setup. Like others here, the one-click install didn’t work for me, but I extracted the templates from the plugin code using Textmate (except for the style declarations, which are encrypted). I’m wondering how I can enable users to input custom field data in the discussion_form.

In addition to Title and Body, I want input fields for keywords, category1, and nine custom fields. I designed the form I need using mem_form tags and I’ve verified that it works using mem_moderation— but I want the articles posted directly to the site without moderation. Although I’m not a PHP adept, I don’t mind modifying the plugin, with guidance, if needed.

I see this section seems to correspond with the input fields available, but I don’t know what to do:

safe_insert( 
               "textpattern", 
               "Title           = '$txphorum_mem_Title', 
                Body            = '$txphorum_mem_Body', 
                Body_html       = '$txphorum_mem_Body_html', 
                Excerpt         = '', 
                Excerpt_html    = '', 
                Image           = '', 
                Keywords        = '', 
                Status          = '4', 
                Posted          = $when, 
                LastMod         = now(), 
                AuthorID        = '$txphorum_mem_Author', 
                Section         = '$section', 
                Category1       = '$category1', 
                Category2       = '', 
                textile_body    = '1', 
                textile_excerpt = '1', 
                Annotate        = '0', 
                override_form   = '', 
                url_title       = '$url_title', 
                AnnotateInvite  = 'Comment', 
                custom_1        = '$txphorum_mem_Parent', 
                custom_2        = '', 
                custom_3        = '', 
                custom_4        = '', 
                custom_5        = '', 
                custom_6        = '', 
                custom_7        = '', 
                custom_8        = '', 
                custom_9        = '', 
                custom_10       = '', 
                uid                = '".md5(uniqid(rand(),true))."', 
                feed_time        = now()" 
        );

I expect there may be an easy solution that I’m overlooking, and I’m very grateful for any guidance or support you may provide!

Kind regards,
John Stephens

Hello,

I would like to install this plug-in but like many others the one-click install doesn’t work.

Any chance someone can explain a step-by-step way of doing this manually?

Cheers,

Lawrence

Si · 2008-09-29 14:17:21

same thing for me, the ‘one-click’ way doesn’t work.

Bloke · 2008-12-11 12:27:10

Just a quick heads-up. For those having problems with the one-click install, the reason is that the plugin tries to execute its code from the Plugin Help page. On this page, no plugins are permitted to run so as far as the installation procedure is concerned, there’s no code to see here, move along, please disperse… :-\

Until Ben has some time to fix it officially (Extensions tab for plugin prefs?), the temporary solution is simple but inelegant:

Visit the plugin’s help section
Right-click the ‘Install default installation’ link and copy the target URL to the clipboard
Open up a new tab in your browser and paste the link in, but don’t hit Enter yet
Edit the bit from the ? onwards to read this: ?event=txphorum&name=TXPhorum&install_txphorum=yes
Hit Enter/click Go
You’ll get a message back that says “Restricted Area” but rest assured the necessary pages and forms will have been created for you in the background
Enjoy this fine plugin

Hope that helps some folk.

Hi Guys,
Having problems with my TXPhorum install. I would like the default Textpattern admin to be the same admin for the TXPhorum install [i.e. one admin for the entire site, managed from /textpattern back-end].

Have followed the above instructions, and have managed to get the basic install up [but would like to customize the install as follows: section name to be Discussions, as opposed to txphorum; apply css styles to the form elements; have a brief ‘list’ of most active topics on the ‘home’ page of the site, whose topic links, when clicked, go to the actual topic under the Discussions topic; go to the ‘topics listings’ page when you access the ‘Discussions’ section i.e. www.sitename.com/discussions]

Will greatly appreciate your input, ideas, and advise.

quemultimedia · 2009-01-06 15:38:12

In addition to above, how can I list the currently ‘active’ topics on my default [home] page?

Still lost, dazed, and confused about the implementation of TXPhorum…trying…

Since a topic is an article you can use the standard article tags to show them however you like.

Wanna show the 5 most recent topics on your home page? Use:

<txp:article_custom limit="5" section="discussions" sort="posted desc">
   <txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink>
</txp:article_custom>
