Okay, i fail at google, because i only ever found the ancient Xpress and the module at xoops-magazine.de

But alas, all the work is done, and if anyone knows how to redirect, i would very much appreciate if you could give me a hint where to look.

Thanks.

Redirecting users and links to archive xoops site with htaccess file?

Hey,

I'm running into a bit of trouble, and I was hoping I could ask your advice. I'm running an aging blog on a XOOPS platform using the old XPress module.

My intention is to deprecate the use of the wordpress module in Xoops. It is a great module, but it is dead and no one seem to be maintaining it.

I have mirrored the old site to keep in the archive, i would like to use .htaccess to permanently move all the incoming visitors and links to the subdomain "old".

The link pattern in both sites are [mydomain.com]/modules/wordpress/[the blog post link].

So, any blog post link out there should go to old.mydomain.com - not the top domain.

I've read dozens and dozens of htaccess guides, but i can't seem to find the answer. It will probably be very simple, but so far all my attempts to edit the htaccess results in a 500-error.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^http://[mydomain.com/modules/wordpress/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^http://[www.mydomain.com]/modules/wordpress/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$http://old.[mydomain.com]/modules/wordpress/$ [R=301,NC,L]

Hopefully you all know the answer, and hopefully you could share it with me before I get completely bald from tearing my hair out.

Cheers and thanks in advance.

That's an impossible question. It all depends on what you want to do. :)

I find that for blogging, XOOPS is unmatched in that you can run a dual system with XOOPS functionality, and witth Wordpress for blogging.

If I want a prettier system, I use Joomla.

Just wondered why I got lots of traffic from here suddenly... I operate the mentioned blog above.

My theme.html is modified and uses a table with four columns. The column widths are controlled by style.css.

The last column isn't hard coded, but in XOOPS you can use module positions, and I use something like user9, or something. I've just removed the header from the blocks, and set these blocks to use different css-code than regular blocks.

Edit: Sorry, got a bit of a brain meltdown above. That's from my joomla site. That should teach me to use lots of different CMS:s. My Xoops-blog uses the top-center-right block position for my ads. The left- and right-columns (the normal ones) uses the common positions.

You just have to write a loop (in the rightmost column) to show the top-center-right blocks).

Well, it is a nice simple theme, particularly for a guy who had no imagination at the time and when all I ever came up with were attempts whose guiding characteristic could be described as 'Yuck!'. :)

Thank you all for your replies. I "solved" the problem by ditching BM-Survey altogether and installed the Survey-module instead - a shame because I think the BM-Survey was more advanced, and had a greater ranger. However, I just couldn't get it to work, and function is after all everything.

There are no CHMOD-issues and the survey has been activated. I tried to clone it, as you said - as well as upgrading XOOPS to 2.0.16.

These are the results - one from a CSV export to Excel and the other from the internal XOOPS visualisation of the results.

Internal visualisation:

CSV Export to Excel:

I of course gave the five first questions 5 points each on the ranking scale.

Hmmm... Do you think it matters for a module that claims 2.0.x compatibility? I'm willing to try anything at this point.

Hello, bm-survey seems to be a very good module, but I do have a serious problem with it - it will not record any data about a survey I'm performing.

I've tried to ask about this on the developer's board, but perhaps the developer is away over the new years or something. Perhaps one of you might know what to do?

Bm-survey does not record any data, neither in the database or on file. When I try to export the data as CSV only the fields are included - but none of the respondents entries. When I review the online reports it is the same.

I do not have access to the Apache server to change any of the things that are marked in red on my status check page.

In Firefox it looks like you might have some minor width problems with your grey bars. They space differently from other items on the page.

If you mean the big strip of grey next to the side bar, then it is supposed to be the way it is - I didn't want to waste all that space.

I should say that what basically remains of Incamas theme is the CSS - pretty much everything else is heavily modified or replaced.
