Very nice... a very welcome addition to the ever increasing plugin list of CMSimple.

Hm, why has nobody else posted some comments? Nobody using CMSimple any more?

Some little remarks:
German language file all English? :?
The emoticons... look a little pale ... I like the ones on this forum here better.

I have a German subsite on an English CMSimple, if in the subsite I try to submit a reply without subject line, an empty javascript alert appears. Besides I get:
NOTICE: Undefined index: lbl_title_missing
NOTICE: Undefined index: lbl_comment_missing
However in the main language everything is working fine (up to now).

I'm quite sure, that everybody is eagerly awaiting the switch from phpBB to Forum_XH :lol:

There's no German language file included in the download yet (I'd rather wait with the translation; there might be quite some changes). Your's is probably just the automatic copy of default.php.

Well, the emoticons... It took me quite a while to find a set that's available under a compatible license. In fact I hadn't actually considered to look for the phpBB ones, which should be under GPL. I'll check that, and will include them in the next release. If anybody has another free emoticon icon set, please tell me! And of course everybody can replace the emoticons in images/ with the preferred ones.

Yes, indeed. I can reproduce the behaviour! The problem is, that default.php is outdated :oops: For now just copy en.php to default.php and delete de.php. Than it should work.

Hello Community,

I have just released Forum_XH 1.0beta2.

I have finally added the possibility to edit existing post. Furthermore I fixed several flaws and minor bugs, added the German and Danish translation (the latter contributed by maeg -- thanks!), supported several new CMSimple_XH 1.6 APIs and did considerable refactoring. For details see the CHANGELOG.

The new version requires CMSimple_XH >= 1.6 and PHP >= 5.1.2.

Enjoy,
Christoph

Hello Community,

I have just released Forum_XH 1.0beta4.

I have fixed a severe bug, where the plugin was nearly unusable under CMSimple_XH 1.6.5 (except in admin mode). Many thanks to pmschulze for reporting the bug.

Enjoy,
Christoph

Hi everybody!

Forum_XH 1.0beta5 has just been released.

Some bugs have been fixed, and several enhancements have been made. For details see the changelog. The most notable changes:
  1. The requirements have been lifted (XH ≥ 1.6.3, Fa_XH, PHP ≥ 5.4.0)
  2. The location of the data files isn't configurable anymore; instead the are expected in CMSimple_XH's contents/ folder
  3. Email notification is now available
  4. The forums have been "ajaxified" (requires a contemporary browser; at least IE 10), what makes them suitable for Onepagers and such.
Enjoy!

but still XH < 1.7, unfortunately. :(

Forum_XH 1.0beta5 is supposed to be fully compatible with CMSimple_XH 1.7. What doesn't work for you?

A site that I am maintaining uses Forum_XH in conjunction with Memberpages_XH. The Forum is available only for logged in members. This way, the username taken from the memberpages-plugin is shown for each contribution in the forum (for each topic and also for each statement within a topic). That's nice. However, in my case I would like to show the real names (also available in the memberpages database) and maybe also the email-address instead of the usernames.

I had a look at the code of Forum_XH and my guess is that something in the 'private function user()' in MainController.php (lines 316 ff.) should be changed. I tried some guesses but that didn't work. Any help is appreciated.
