Hi,

On my personnal website, the private forums are not visible at all. Could you try to update your version please ?

Bye,
Hervé

Sorted. I'm always wary of installing over something that works reasonably well At last , hidden forums. Thanks!

Question: Is there a hack that allows users to upload attatchments in selected forums? Or something similiar!

Cheers.

where is newbb2? or where is the file attachment support?

it would be in the settings per forum, via admin. make sure you edit Global permissions as well as the specific permissions.

Yes, sorry I meant the option. I've looked in the admin section, but nothing to do with attatchments. I'll keep looking!

assuming you have the latest Newbb 2 installed (fromhttp://dev.xoops.org - click on Newbb link on the lower right side):

goto Newbb administration
click on Index if not already selected
you'll see:
Quote:
Path for attachment storing: /YOURXOOPSINSTALLPATH/uploads/newbb/ ( Not available Create it )
Path for attached image thumbs: /YOURXOOPSINSTALLPATH/uploads/newbb/thumbs/ ( Not available Create it )


create both folders by clicking on the link to Create It for each folder

then assuming you have already created Categories and Forums, click on the Forums tab, select the Edit icon/option for a listed forum, and you should see a preference to enable/disable uploading/attaching files.

you will also need to set permissions appropriately to specify who can upload.

I've forumEx V1.2
Guess i've got an older version. Not willing to install the one you suggest for two reasons, 1 - I don't want to lose all my posts and 2 - I want to keep the private forums hidden and i'm not sure if the newer versions has that feature still.

if you want to find out for yourself, setup a test site.


forumex looks like it's based on newbb v1, whereas newbb2 is almost a complete rewrite of the forum it seems. you wouldn't believe how different it is.
