Gah !
Help a beginner out.
I removed the miniportal mods I did originally, and followed the instruction for the Punportal mod to the letter.
I was configuring it, and refreshed my page, and received this message


An error was encountered
Error: Unable to fetch the recent topics.

Any attempt to access the forum now shows the same message


Now - I did enable the recent topics block, but did not tell it which forum to draw from. Is that why I am getting this ?
How to fix ?

I did notice that the portal mod calls to change all occasions of index.php to forums.php (and that there is no "forums.php", rather "forum.php") Well, changing this did not work either.

A positively awesome little add-on. I wish all mods were this easy.
Just dawned on me - there is nothing stopping anyone from registering on one's forum, and uploading pics to leech bandwidth, right ?

Nice color - what theme is that
Oh, and it's all Greek to me smile

Amazing - thanks for the quick reply.
You were right. I have reedited the files carefully, with success this time.

Just a word - the support here on the forums is amazing, and the members are hugely knowledgeable and helpful. I have learned so much in the last week ! Thanks again.

Thanks - got that part right - however in editing the file include/functions.php acording to the readme, the following correction...

#---------[ 10. OPEN ]---------------------------------------------------------

include/functions.php

        if ($pun_user['g_id'] > PUN_MOD)
        {

                $links[] = '<li id="navsearch"><a href="search.php">'.$lang_common['Search'].'</a>';

            $links[] = '<li id="navprofile"><a href="profile.php?id='.$pun_user['id'].'">'.$lang_common['Profile'].'</a>';

Produces the following error....  Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/virtual/site133/fst/var/www/html/lmforum/include/functions.php on line 1078

Which is weird, since line 1078 is blank. When I delete the line, I get the same error. Further, if I revert to an untouched versio nof the file, the error disappears, as does the pm function.

Thanks for any suggestions, apologies for my rudimentary knowledge.
Just another thing - why is it that in virtually all of the instructions for editing files, invariably there is a line number quoted wrong in the instructions ?

Thanks Greg - but I was referring to specifically which instances should be edited, and to what.

I would like to be a pest and ask for which lines need to be edited ?

This has answered my question, thanks. I had installed an earlier version. Now updated to the latest version, and all working fine.
Thanks for the quick response -sometimes all one needs is a nudge in the right direction. smile

I have a fresh installation of Pokemon jojo's PBB Gallery.
It works fine, but I have no idea how to configure the gallery options as per the screenshots this thread.

What am I missing, where do I go to do it ?

To make sure I have installed the correct gallery, it is here

I have successfully installed a punbb forum, index page and a few mods, and am loving it. I have 2 other installations of phpbbfm and would like to migrate them to punbb.
I see the tool does over migrations from phpbb, but phpbbfm is not listed. I have a suspicion that since phpbbfm mucks around with the database so much that an attempted migration would be disastrous.

Anyone ever attempted phpbbfm ---> punbb with success ?

Thanks and apologies..
What are the chances that my first request for help would be a retarded one ? sad

New to punbb, but loving it so far.
I have successfuly installed a few simple mods - easybbcode, youtube, miniportal and a few others.
I am trying to install a gallery, but get this message (got it when installing a few others too, namely the attachment mod)

You are running a version of PunBB (1.2.14) that this mod does not support. This mod supports PunBB versions: 1.2, 1.2.1, 1.2.2, 1.2.3, 1.2.4, 1.2.5

I would assume that the mods are not updated, or is it something else ? Surely if they appear on the front page, they would be current with 1.2.14 ?
