The other weird things, that in the News (1.55) module, the image tags are working.

//edit
In some input fields Language tags aren't parsed too. It's like mytextsanitizer is only working partially.

I have quite an odd issue. I installed CBB 3.08 on my (quite old) Xoops installation 2.0.17 Multilanguage Hack and when I try to include an image in a post, using [img]-Tags they don't get parsed.

Does anybody have an idea, what the reason could be?

The following link leads to an example on my website:

What's quite funny, that the [url]-Tag is being parsed correctly ...

To do the import from SmartSection to Publisher, would you use the import function in Publisher or would you manually import the DB?

I'm thinking about an "inbetween solution" atm. It would be great if you guy could tell me what you want to do if you were in my position.

What if I leave the old version online as it is. Therefore all the backlinks to our articles find the target. Furthermore I deactivate the that the old version is being index by google.
Parallel to this I put the new installation into the public html folder and make it the productive installation. I also activate google index on this installation.

In the end all the new reviews, news, ... go online in the new installation and the old installation only serves the backlinks.

Do you guys think that would be a good/feasable solution?

I mean, I know that I can change the entries in the DB one by another, but that's quite a pain

Thanks for your answer Mamba.

The most important modules are SmartSection, News, xcgallery, Weblinks and WF-Downloads.

What I've done so far is, that I've setup a Xoops 2.5.4 installation which can be found here:http://www.ocaholic.ch/htdocs/

The only module I really struggled with was SmartSection. The admin template got messed up completely. Apart from that everything else is working fine. Since I've not been able to get SmartSection running correctly, I switched to Publisher regarding the new installation. Now that I've seen Publisher I would like to have this one when it comes to the final/updated version (I guess I don't have to explain why). The only problem I have now is that all the links to our reviews are going to be different. When I do the import from SmartSection to Publisher, the latter doesn't set the same "itemid" like there was in SmartSection, which in the end renders all the backlinks useless.
If there was a possibility to have Publisher set the same itemid's like SmartSection did, then the move to Publisher wouldn't be an issue.

It kind of seems like I should be able to do the upgrades myself. But what do you think would be the better choice. Since I've already created a new installation in another directory, which is quite close to completion would you rather move that installation to directory which is now live or would you really update the 2.0.16 installation?

Hi guys

To be honest, I did not know where to post this question but I though it might be right here.

I'm looking for help to upgrade my really, really old xoops installation to move to the latest version.


First of all some background to my project:
I am the owner of www.ocaholic.ch We write reviews about hardware components as well as smartphones and tablets, ... on a daily basis and I do make a living. The reviews are published in four languages, which are English, German, French and Italian.

Personally I would like to upgrade the installed version that the URL's to all reviews and news do not change. The reason for that is, there are thousands of backlinks to ocaholic from other websites around the globe and also the google rank of ocaholic is very good. So I guess you guys can understand that I don't want to kill 8 years of SEO optimization work.

So, why am I posting here?
I'm looking for help to do the upgrade. May this be a guide to do it on my own or somebody who might actually do the upgrade for me. I really hope you guys can help me!

At this point a list of all modules installed:
News 1.55
Impressum 2.2
News 2 1.1
Optimize 2.14
Xoops Care 1.2
Smartsection 2.14
Xcgallery 2.03
SmartLanguage 1
Happy Linux Framework 1.5
SmartPartner 1.4
WF-Downloads 1.4
SmartObject Framework 0.8
SartFAQ 1.08
WebLinks 1.95
CBB 3.08
Addresses 1.5

XHLD 3.08
Web Digets 2.01

Now I'm really hoping to read from you guys!

Xoops Version: 2.5.4
xLanguage Version: 3.02
PHP Version: 5.3.3-7+squeeze13 with Suhosin-Patch
MySQL Version: 5.1.63-0+squeeze1 (Debian)

After thinking about it for a bit longer ... I think the issues occured after we did a server update (Debian). Still ... does anybody have any ideas what to do?

//edit
After uploading Version 3.1 from the SVN repository, the site is not showing the the different tags anymore. Now I see only the default language I set. But changing the language doesn't work.

Hi guys

I hope someone here can help. I turned off my development site where I'm using xlanguage for my website which is in english, german and french. After I turned it back on it isn't working anymore. In fact it doesn't parse the [de][/de], [en][/en] and [fr][/fr] anymore.

Any help is appreciated.

I just selected use custom session on my xoops 2.5.4 installation but now I can't login anymore.
Can anyone tell me I have to do to be able to login again?
