Re: Joo!BB or FireBoard

I have been used Fireboard for my websites (http://chimco.net/ Joomla 1.0.x,...).

Fireboard still needs more improvement such as advanced search (now there is a plugin for this function), user permissions (very poor), image and file upload and forum & post management. Fireboard 1.0.x is not a native Joomla 1.5. If you do not care about user permission FB 1.0.5 is good for your website.

FB team dev. say that, the FB 2.0 will be a native J 1.5 and released in end of 2008, but .. Now, I do not know...

I myself found JooBB is a promised one for J 1.5, but at this time, JooBB also still is unstable version and more & more improvements should be done. They promise, the stable is released today or tomorrow (end of January 2009).

Now, there is a forum component CCBoard for a native Joomla 1.5.x. The admin is very active and It is improved everyday. You can visit http://codeclassic.org/ to have a look.

Yeah, you can choose: Fireboad, CCBoard or JooBB.

I myself use JooBB for my website at http://vatlieu.us, but if there are no improvement. CCBoard will be right choosen.

Thank,

Viet

Re: Member Panel Problem

Just change com_joobb/designs/styles/joo_black/joo_black.css at line 225:
.jbWidth80 { width: 75%; } /**default is 80%*/

You can change this value below 80%.

Thanks

Let's try

Change the 'url' as following in the com_joobb/system/joobbengine.php (line 148 )
Demo: http://vatlieu.us/forum/topic/10-discovery-keyword-trend-in-each-country-or-all-over-the-world-google-trends-for-keyword-research-.html
Code

			case 'url':

				$host = str_replace('http://','',JURI::base());

				$host = str_replace('/','',$host);

 
				$url = $argument ? $argument : $innerString;

				$pos = strpos($url, $host);

				if ($pos > 0) $target = ''; else $target = ' target="_blank"';

				$replacement = '' . $innerString . '';

				break;

Quite simple

At file com_joobb/system/joobbengine.php, add line as below:
Code:function convertToHtml(&$post) {
$joobbConfig =& JoobbConfig::getInstance();

// replace bb codes
if ($joobbConfig->getBoardSettings('enable_bbcode') && $post->enable_bbcode) {
$post->text = $this->convertBBToHtml($post->text);
//Add this code
$post->signature = $this->convertBBToHtml($post->signature);
}

Quote by Unknown:Thanks for all your interest in this template. It is reassuring to see that it will be appriciated when released. Which will be alongside the release of 0.9.0 of JooBB, in January (I think thats what Robiie said anyway).

Also with another template called Joo!PP, which I will post some images of soon.

Code TAG bug

Code

<img src="http://www.joobb.org/components/com_joobb/assets/emotions/skype/skype_0137-clapping.gif" title="Clapping" alt="Clapping" class="jbEmotion" /> <img src="http://www.joobb.org/components/com_joobb/assets/emotions/skype/skype_0143-heart.gif" title="Heart" alt="Heart" class="jbEmotion" />

The emotion icons are still parsed in CODE tag..
