forums

Hi
I am trying to use forum in a multi lingual site
the problem is that i don't want the end user to select the language , i want it to be selected automatically by the "context" - i mean by the forum language

i have set up 2 groups (one for each language)
forum/1 - English
forum/2 - Hebrew

so when the user uses English site for example and enters forum/1 and presses on "add forum topic" , he needs to select the language, and i want this to be automated

one way i can do this by is by hook_from_alter()
is there another way ?
am i the first who needs this ?

Thanks , Avior

We've got a /tracker menu item to show new forum posts. Great. Only problem is it doesn't show the forum the topic is posted under, my first thought is that this could easily be fixed by using a view instead of the tracker. Problem with this is that views can't show whether there are new posts in a topic. So should I:

Hace un tiempo que estoy desarrollando un foro en Drupal con funcionalidades similares a los que todos conocemos.

Durante este proceso documente todos los pasos para crear un foro con Drupal 5.2.

Last week I created a module that's popular with forum communities; it allows titles to be assigned based upon post counts, as well as arbitrary overriding of the titles by administrators.

It requires work at the theming layer to expose these titles, though I saw some mention that flatforum may offer automatic integration with the module if it exists. If so, that would be really handy.

See http://drupal.org/project/user_titles

The issue is at: http://drupal.org/node/20295

It's the most awaited one after flat forums(coming soon!), and posting this one so that we can move on to flat forum one asap! Now, for this one, imagine you want polls to appear in your forums, this patch gets any content type in there, and likewise the possibilities to push any content into forums by choosing related category. Hopefully this much makes enough sense what the patch does. Will also post a port for Drupal 5.x, as requested by Michelle.

UIEForum is a complete forum system, that is intended to replace the existing drupal forum module. I test this module before, and its a better solution for me, it still in dev version, the developper is very friendly helper (zoro)

Hi,

I know that there are thousands of topics like that on the net, but I would like to know what's the status in our group.

Please type your favorite BB software, and please write why you like it, and what you hate in it.

I personally use Invision Power Board 1.3, but I hate it. There's nothing good about it, the only reason that I use it the all my moderators like it, and don't want to deal with phpBB. (I can't wait to surprise them with DruBB) :)

Please share your experience,
Have a nice day.

Welcome to the vBulletin group. Now lets get this group active!!

Hi,

I am still developing the extended forum module, but I have now big project at my work so the forum module project won't be ready by February, but I hope that I'll release the pre-alpha version by March. And I hope to post screen shots as soon as I can.

Anyway, I got an issue that I would like to discuss with you about.

While Drupal specializes in simplicity, competing with forum software like phpBB or Invision requires more depth in terms of individual pieces. One of the most underdeveloped modules is, without a doubt, the private messaging module. Compared to other types of PMing, this module can certainly be expanded. What do you think could make PM-ing more interesting for users on a site?

My ideas:

Folders: Letting users create folders for their PMs would certainly add a needed feature. On some sites (no Drupal ones I use, but certainly on forums), I receive a ton of messages, so letting me sort them is certainly a convenience.
