Using XOOPS 2.2.4 and new install of CBB 3.0 I get the following error:

Fatal error: Class 'XoopsObjectHandler' not found in C:\public_html\kernel\object.php on line 623

I had copied:
"art" to c:\public_html\
Over wrote my existing folders with the ones in "Framework/Xoops2.2:
"class"
"include"
"kernel"
"language"

The above error is just trying to go into the admin CP to install the module.

Did I miss something?

Ok, maybe I’m misinterpreting something here. Are you saying to copy the contents that are of the folder “Frameworks/xoops22” to the root of the website? If my website is at c:\public_html\ and I copy the contents of the folder, it will override my existing folders.

Or are you saying do not even copy the folder “Frameworks” at all?

Thanks.

I changed a little bit in the instruction:
Quote:

Important - keep the folder structure:
XOOPS_ROOT/Frameworks/art/
(XOOPS_ROOT/Frameworks/xoops22/, for XOOPS 2.0 and 2.3 only)
XOOPS_ROOT/modules/newbb/

Phppp,.Are their any changes in the module templates? I have alterated alot of code in the templates and sure going to be unhappy when I must redesign them.

Also, are there changes within the templates configuration, meaning, are all the templates controled in the db now?

Thank you

Has the welcoming new member function been removed as I don't seem to be able to select a forum, yet the box remains in admin?

After upgrading from 1.16

I could do with this fuction as I made one of the members moderator of the welcoming forum.

Well done phppp, and others who contribute to CBB. Your continued endeavors with such a great (and vital) and integrated aspect of XOOPS are appreciated by us all. One of the things I really love about XOOPS is the 'one username for all' aspect and the fact that a users login can be used for the forums too without having to re-enter login details. I salute you sir!

Rhomal:

Even in this version, when I updated, I got the blank page as well. I suspect it may be that I am using 2.2.4. The solution for me was found in this thread: https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=46666&start=0#forumpost205652.

Additionally, I get an almost blank page except the plain type statement, "You don't have the right to view this topic," when I go to the forums pull-down menu to print the topic.

Actually, I think I would prefer the links to print topics not be generated via the drop-down menu...

All that being said, I very much appreciate the rapid development being done on this mod.

Using XOOPS 2.2.4 and CCB 3.0 and all works fine over here. For anyone not getting what to do with the Frameworks folder: Upload it to your root folder but delete the xoop22 folder from it (if using XOOPS 2.2.4!!).
Everything should just work fine by doing so.

I've got it running on my test site with XOOPS 2.2.4; seeing the same issues as others. Hopefully I'll have some time to try to debug a bit and post back any findings.

BTW, is the "quote" feature gone for good? I've been re-enabling it on every upgrade with no issues at all so far. Its one feature that my users tend to use *a lot*, so I'm just curious as to the plans for it. What problems was it causing for others?

Yes I know about that "quote", I was referring to the "quote" link/img displayed under each post; sorry if that wasn't clear!

IMO, the possible speed decrease from a 1.4kb image is outweighed by the convenience factor. Most other forum apps display a quote option for each post as well, so it is a feature that many users (myself included) have come to sort of expect. I actually originally discovered it had been commented out when some of my members complained about it. If speed is an issue, then why not just use a text link instead?

I was just wondering the reasoning behind disabling it, and seemed to recall something about it causing issues for some people.

@khuhner, I am wondering that you mixed up with some old files.

other FAQ:

Q: I am using XOOPS 2.23/3 and getting blank pages
A: make sure you have uploade the Frameworks to your XOOPS ROOT folder and removed the Frameworks/xoops22

Q: makepdf does not work ast all
A: making pdf is moved to "transfer", bottom-left corner of a post

Q: how to use suspension
A: login as a moderator or a webmaster, enter "admin" mode by clicking "admin" button at bottom, you will find some admin options including "suspension".

Q: where is quote
A: the "quote" button has been moved to edit/reply page. In other words, once you enter the edit page, you will see the "quote" button beside "submit". The change was made considering a balance between user-friendly and speed.
In the past, we had some reports from users that may help you understand the changes we made: what's the difference between quote and reply, they just confuse; when I use WYSIWYG and click "quote", nothing happened; I have too many buttons on the view page, can we remove the useless ones.

Re: CBB 3.0 is released

dotmil Published 02/18/2006 19:39 Friend of XOOPS Joined 09/06/2004 Comments 51

Ok that reasoning for the "quote" changes makes a little more sense to me. I guess it's just a preference some people have and others don't. Either way, I just uncommented the usual lines and it's back.

I don't mind having to enable it this way, as long as the feature is available as an option. Thanks BTW; this is definitely a worthwhile upgrade!

I wondering if there is a way to have the default view of the Forums home page be collapsed? That is, when you go to mysite/modules/newbb/index.php, have just the forum categories show, with the + icon next to them to expand them.

[Edit]I assumed that the item in module prefs (that reads "collpase", a typo) should set this, but I find that my browser opens them however they were set when I last closed it.

I completely agree with dotmil about quote. For me and my users quote insn't absolutely an useless button but a function very popular that's implemented in lots of forums and for this reason most of people that use a forum are accostumed to use in a certain way: clicking on a buttom that says "quote"!
And just an example: in this page there are (apart this one) 6 posts that used a "quote" on 30 (20%)!
IMHO it's a very useful feature that can't be missing

come on... its a ONE K file people... geezz.. you acting like this is a 2 meg image they have to download. Out of all the things to trim this was a BAD idea. I know of few forum users who do not quote at least part time. I personally would like to see the button restored by default.

If someone can tell me where to uncomment the lines to make it visable again I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Sorry, almost all performance enhancements are achieved piece by piece, 1k by 1k, unless you have bugs or improper design in your old version so that your users luckily have a significant improvement after a blind period.
(I am not saying the "quote" right now, for the decision should be made according users' preference, not in a sudden)

But when, where and why did users choose to trim this feature?

I think if you make a poll you'll have at least an 80% that want to keep quote.
If you really want to trim something useless and that slows down performances you should delete "HP/MP/EXP Level Mode" that's an incomprehensible, very heavy for queries and very useless feature IMHO, not trim a 1 k file!
And personally I don't know any forums (vBullettin, IPB, phpbb...) without a "quote" buttom.
Obviosly mine is just a personal opinion and not a polemic...

About my problem I quote myself

Why Am I not able to use this feature that I think is very very useful?

Is the Polls feature working? Using the test forum that is installed with CBB3, and enabling Polls in that forum, when I click on New Poll I get the New Topic entry screen. I have the old Xoopspoll installed and it shows as such under CBB3's index page.

[Edit] I just found it works if you choose New Poll from the view topic page (displaying an actual message, where the choices are New Poll, Reply, New Topic). It doesn't work if you choose New Poll from the view forum page, where you have the choice of New Poll or New Topic. The New Poll icon seems to be pointing to the wrong URL.

[Edit 2] OK, sometimes it takes time for me to see the obvious! I see now that polls have to be linked to a post so clicking New Poll at the forum level first brings up the form to enter the post, then the form to enter the poll. Sorry for the wasted bandwidth.

I actually use the HP/MP/Exp posting levels. If you can turn it off I do not see the reason to remove it. It is not being forced down your throat. Unlike the removal of the quote button.

Dear Rhomal, I'm sorry for this misunderstanding: probably we Italian have a different sense of make irony, sarcasm and say something: obviously my post about HP/MP/Exp was just a provocation to reinforce my position about quote!

In Italy there's a proverb that I'll try to translate better is possible: "Don't take all my words like drained gold" that should be approximatively like yours: "Take it easy"

Probably you don't know neither the first and the second!

Just for example:
When I post an opinion in contrast with their vision of things, developers take it like a personal attack!
When I do a provocation nobody understand it!
When I need help usually I have no answer!

Three things:

1. a newer version of CBB 3.01 is now out at http://www.xoopsforge.com, so you might want to look at this instead of 3.0

2. I've been using CBB since it first came out on a very active site and have just deployed it on 2 new sites of mine. I have never had any problems with this module on any of my sites and in my opinion it is one of the best, most flexible, and most stable modules I have seen for Xoops. . and, I've seen a lot over my few years here.

3. Much admiration and indebtedness to phppp for his incredible attention to customer support, bug fixes, new versions, additional development, feature requests, etc. on CBB as well as all of his other fantastic modules, including articles, xpress, xmline, etc. I basically take every opportunity he offers to run my sites on his modules because with them you know that you will get: stability, enthusiastic support, frequent enhancements, and more power than you will ever need for your users.

If you don't know this, then you should take his advice and use the modules a bit more and check out his xoopsforge.com with questions.

3.01 solves most of the issues :)

just 1 left..

on installation/update using system / modules admin..

still get the array message at top of screen.. and preferences theme_et selection is empty which is what causes the array error..

to fix this >

open xoops_version.php

find on line 231/232:

 "options"=> array(_NONE=>""), 
    "default" => "");

replace with

 "options"=> array('none'=>'None'), 
    "default" => "none");

then click update on the cbb module again.

when using the blocks, on a site with white background. (recent posts) the template calls for style from 'head' which in my main site css is grey with black text... but on the page the words 'forum, topic, poster' above the table appear in white and invisible on my white background.

how do I change the template to make this black?!? Tried changing my head tag in the main css, and adding a .head tag to the newbb.css... no luck.

XoopsForge.com

Quote:

Q: I am using XOOPS 2.23/3 and getting blank pages
A: make sure you have uploade the Frameworks to your XOOPS ROOT folder and removed the Frameworks/xoops22

Q: makepdf does not work ast all
A: making pdf is moved to "transfer", bottom-left corner of a post

Q: how to use suspension
A: login as a moderator or a webmaster, enter "admin" mode by clicking "admin" button at bottom, you will find some admin options including "suspension".

Q: where is quote
A: the "quote" button has been moved to edit/reply page. In other words, once you enter the edit page, you will see the "quote" button beside "submit". The change was made considering a balance between user-friendly and speed.
In the past, we had some reports from users that may help you understand the changes we made: what's the difference between quote and reply, they just confuse; when I use WYSIWYG and click "quote", nothing happened; I have too many buttons on the view page, can we remove the useless ones.

Q: I can not make "digest" work
A: the "digest" command in forum is only for __marking__, like "sticky" which makes a topic sticky on the top. "digest" makes a topic as essencial and could be browsed collectively by "view all digests", nothing more except that when a user subscribes to "send digest to me", he will get email notification of digested topic links __after__ you send out digest notification from module admin area.

Q: I am using XOOPS 2.0*, how to make "welcome" work?
A: As the config for "welcome" requires DB query in xoops_version.php for XOOPS 2.0*, so the feature is turned off for XOOPS 2.0. It works with XOOPS 2.2* which has module-pre-update handler, and is expected to work in XOOPS 2.3 once pre-update handler is implemented.

Q: How to update from old newbb/cbb version
A: I assume it should work by updating the module directly. If this does not work for you, plz let me know.

Q: How to convert from other forum software to CBB
A: we have a convertor from phpbb 2.015 to CBB 1.* (Get it!), not fully validated yet. If you have any success or bugs with it, plz share! For other software, we don't have yet.

Q: How to convert from CBB to other forum software
A: we don't have yet, neither have the intension. However, we are glad to provide paid convertor

Q : Attachments don't display and can't be opened
A : we assume you are using IE browser, please set in newbb/class/plugin.php file the fourth option to true, so that it looks like this

// redirect to its URI of an attachment when requested
// Set to true if your attachment would be corrupted after download with normal way
$GLOBALS["xoopsModuleConfig"]["download_direct"] = true;

-- by marco

Q: How do i hide "register or login to post" ?
A : please set in newbb/class/plugin the second option to false, so that it looks like this

// display "register or login to post" for anonymous users
$GLOBALS["xoopsModuleConfig"]["show_reg"] = false;

-- by marco

And much more ...
A: Go to newbb/include/plugin.php
// requiring "name" field for anonymous users in edit form
$GLOBALS["xoopsModuleConfig"]["require_name"] = true;

// display "register or login to post" for anonymous users
$GLOBALS["xoopsModuleConfig"]["show_reg"] = true;

// perform forum/topic synchronization on module update
$GLOBALS["xoopsModuleConfig"]["syncOnUpdate"] = false;

// redirect to its URI of an attachment when requested
// Set to true if your attachment would be corrupted after download with normal way
$GLOBALS["xoopsModuleConfig"]["download_direct"] = false;

// Set the default editor
$GLOBALS["xoopsModuleConfig"]["editor_default"] = "";

// MENU handler
/* You could remove anyone by commenting out in order to disable it */
$valid_menumodes = array(
0 => _MD_MENU_SELECT, // for selectbox
1 => _MD_MENU_CLICK, // for "click to expand"
2 => _MD_MENU_HOVER // for "mouse hover to expand"
);

For anyone who doesn't know, CBB stands for Community Bulletin Board. It's a fully-integrated, fairly-easy-to-use message board for XOOPS with a wide variety of features.

That's all the free advertising for today.

Hi,

I translated CBB 3.01 to arabic ( language files and RTL style ) but i found some bugs:

1. Rating link in viewforum page not working, and you can fix this by edit :

modules/newbb/templates/newbb_viewforum.html

and replace <{$h_rating_link}> with <{$h_ratings_link}> then update forum module.

------------------------

2. General Setting, main page, about cbb links are hidden in header of admin page.

------------------------

3. Userbar (Profile, PM, ICQ, MSN) not working even i enable it.

------------------------

4. Theme set menu is blank.

------------------------

5. makepdf in transfer page not working.

Thank you phppp

Kovi editor is well cool, makes life so much easier!!
This has made XOOPS have a better forum and editing then any other CMS available and any forum as well, well done Phppp!

Is it possible to make it some how you can select one forum for the welcome message still in XOOPS 2.0.13.2, as isn’t the system there to work in the newer version?

Also can you use the framework, for other people’s modules as a way of using the kovi editor in them if they have the option (i.e. News 1.44)? Is it the same as having the Kovi editor installed?

The forum module is the vital part of the all community sites (and CMS in general).

Congrats to the xoopsforge team for this excellent release!

We have update to CBB 3.01 in xoopsgreece (Greek community site), without any problem so far.

I can't see the userbar (xoops 2.2.4) I posted this on the cbb forum, and I see here and on the cbb forum that I am not the only one.

I noticed that the function &getuserbar is present in newbb/language/english/main.php and root/class.user.php?

For what it's worth 3.01 does fix the deleting forum issue.

Hi, I'm trying to use this cbb on 2.0.13.2 and I notice in the preferences that some options are not available, (shows empty selection box)
happens with theme set and forum for welcoming new user.
The last one I read in the posts is for newer version, but how about theme set?

Also the default permission template did not seem to work for general users. After applying all separate permissions it worked.

I can create new forum, but not delete it, it misses the yes no button, but I think this has something to do with the language files, I have seen this happening before, but dont know anymore how it happened. I use dutch generally but cbb in english since there is no good translation yet, but somewhere in the files there is a mishap going on.

Just upgraded NewBB (standard version) to CBB 3.1. Love it! My members love it! Thanks for the great module.

I did have to correct the:

Blank themes pull-down in admin (though its not really necessary) there are a couple of other places that do this I think

Double posts - there was a fix posted on xoopsforge that worked.

You can see my implementation at:

There is a ranking with stars above the user's avatar. How does that work? What causes a user's ranking to increase? Can an administrator override the settings?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Dumb Question

JMorris Published 04/20/2006 14:05 XOOPS is my life! Joined 04/11/2004 Comments 2722

User ranks are handled by the XOOPS Core system, not CBB.

Ranks are completely customizable by the administrator.

You can assign ranks that increment by post count, or you can assign special ranks that have to be manually applied. Like "Friend of XOOPS".

This would be a good question to post in our FAQ section so we can write up a detailed explaination of what the "User Ranks" system is.

Hi, You have made CBB 3 which replaces newbb. My site has Xoops 2.5.9 with newbb 1. Since the server is now with PHP 5.6, I will update the forum to CBB 3.08 . Newbb1 does not support PHP 5.6. Does the XOOPS2_mod_cbb_3.08_phppp contains the migration from newbb1 to CBB 3.08 ? Do I have to do the migration from newbb1 to CBB 2, and then from CBB 2 to CBB 3.08 ? The website link is here: http://vps555516.ovh.net/djsite/modules/newbb/ Thank you very much. Kind Regards
