Coppermine Forum Plugin (cpgforum)

[dork313]

Well, I already think about the theme thing because my forum is base on coppermine forum style sheet. If you want to change your forum theme, just replace the core style sheet in .css file.

To get the forum to match the theme, and without messing up the way the theme looked, I not only had to edit the .css file for the theme but I edited the theme.inc file as well. Now I've got the forum matching the theme and it looks very nice.  I still have some editing to do to get things to match in IE but it's coming along great. Thanks for this plugin.

Also, I know you're busy but when you are able to work more on this, I'd like to put in a request to support img and url bbcode. That way members can post their pictures in the forum from the gallery as well. Thanks again.

yes.. img bbcode would be very nice! url bbcode works already

In the first and second versions img bbcode did work,
for some reason in the latest it does not.

In my humble opinion, before adding new features it will be better fix some really annoying bugs.
- not being able to view locked threads
- not being able to edit messages
I think these are really urgent so we can manage a forum.
bbcode for images will be great too and i think not so hard to fix.

I've tried using the url code both ways on my forum and it doesn't work.

url=www and url /url

I've also noticed that if you remove a reply the threads icon doesn't display on the category listing anymore.

check my first post for new version.

[Rockas]

Thank YOU! :-D

I am new on this system, so please... it's just a direct upload required?

again... thank you :-)

[Rockas]

btw... would you be interested on including a continental Portuguese translation?

again... thank you for your hard work

[Rockas]

doesn't seem to allow edit of messages, yet. Is this correct?

[Tjnashster]

it seems, that you haven't run the "adaptor plugin", which creates the needed tables.. try to install this plugin if you haven't or try to reinstall..

I have done that and it still does not work.

[Rockas]

can you post here a scheme of your "adaptor" folder's location in relation with your gallery main folder?

I haven't updated yet but my version allows message editing and removal.

[Rockas]

I haven't updated yet but my version allows message editing and removal.

Really? where are the buttons for that located on your system?
I am really tired of looking everywhere and can't find it :-(

edit: oh well... i found it! my message contains long sentences and it went out of the visible area... how stupid was i now?

(me bangs the head against a wall!!!)

any clues about the place i change the message field lenght so i make it fit my theme? thank you.

[Rockas]

ok... found the edit (modify) button along with another problem.
In the edit dialog the text box has no scroll bar.

thank you

edit: and it doesn't save the changes?

[dork313]

I just upgraded and I can confirm that the modify text box doesn't have the scroll bar but mine saved just fine.  I'm also not seeing anything when I click the message preview. It does say message preview but it doesn't show the preview. The bbcode fixes work great and the post icon works correctly as well though, thank you.

[Rockas]

weird! to me the preview works just fine but it doesn't save

you can test there

thank you

[Rockas]

ok... i take it back... lokks like preview isn't working 

[Rockas]

ok... some new data.

looks like it doesn't save only on the first message of a topic.

[dork313]

looks like it doesn't save only on the first message of a topic.

That is odd because the messages I modified and saved were the first post.

[Rockas]

ok... i will run some few more tests... i will also run an optimization of the DB through phpmyadmin... maybe it's a tables glitch.

edit: just for the record... optimization fixed this issue

Only problem left... no preview
and a little help with the text field width?
any clues about where i can change that?

thank you

edit: no whistles and bells and seems to be working fine... the only thing bothering now the that i can't find a way of making the post display fit on the available space and the text goes under the side menu, on Firefox and IE7... looks really bad on Opera
It would be great if this could be independent from the main theme as i can see it gets the same aspect as the users administration from what I can see.
