Forum integration

Hi,

How do you integrate vBulletin 3.8 with CT? Would like it so that latest posts on a forum are found inside a menu block etc.

Thanks

When it's done Winking Face. Contentteller 2.1 is currently in private beta testing. I expect to release the second test release to the beta testers later this week.

The is also a third test release planned before the final release but I may release it as public beta for all customers.

I've just come across a problem - comments on the article index are up to date. But when looking at various pages within the article at the top it says "0 Comments" yet there are 5 or more.

I will look into it.

Is it 2.0.5 out this week or 2.1? Eagerly awaiting this before changing the template system over.

2.0.5

On some of the articles that have already been posted the option of:

Use the following forum for comments:

Was not selected. Is it possible to link an existing thread on the vB forums to an article and have the comments appearing on the 'article comments' ??

What is quite irritating (there is probably a good reason why this happens) is that when before you post an article the option is there but if you miss off including the option of "Use the following forum for comments:" then you can't add this later.

You can choose a forum while posting a new review. Contentteller will create a comments thread for the new review on the forum.

Thanks, I've done this under Articles Pref instead of News as its the articles I want this feature for.

How does this work then? How does it sync with my articles/reviews on the forum? There are no other options I have had to alter.

You need to enable this option under News Preferences:
Enable forum comments? => Yes

How do I get article comments to appear on forum under a certain thread?

All articles are posted on our forum. Would be good to have all comments posted on that thread to appear on the website etc.

Thanks - I've just changed some settings on there so that rather than showing 10 of the latest posts it should show 6 but the changes don't seem to have made a difference? I've also tried unticking "post date" and "post views" under config and nothing changes Slightly Frowning Face

Any ideas?

EDIT: Ignore - took half an hour for the ages to update?? lol
