The long awaited SMF Module!

I have disabled the "disable administration security" in Features and Option > Basic in the SMF admin BEFORE installing the module, and it still doesn’t work... Where did we go wrong ?

I am testing local with XAMPP 1.4.16/WinXP, MODx 0.9.1 default install with sample website (no extra plugin and module installed there) and SMF 1.1 RC2 installed in a /smf subdir. I checked the parameters (path, ruls, documents ID, SMF user login and pass...) and everything seems to be OK there.

Like Susan, the "synchronize users" link does nothing (I don’t get a confirmation that something has happened, even if it nukes my SMF admin account...).

Raymond should be back online tomorrow, and hopefully he’ll be able to quickly resolve any outstanding issues.

Guys, when this is ready to be release, please update the repository Good job to all the guys involve in this module.

I want to share with you my experience with SMF bridges of different sources from the official or none official distribution for my Mambo sites and I can tell you the sync issue is the most difficult to deal with and the most frustration to me. After several months hitting my head on this project, in the end I abandoned the project!

I start from 1.0 up until the most 1.1 RC series. I put in a LOT of time and effort on this for my sites.

Hi,

I can’t get the connection to work.

The forum in installed here 1.1RC2 : http://www.dynapacaustintranet.com.au/forum/index.php

with modX installed at root. http://www.dynapacaustintranet.com.au/

In the configuration: I’ve used>>
CMS Base URL
http://www.dynapacaustintranet.com.au/ (modX is at root)
AND Forum Base Path
I tried all these for the forum setting
forum/
forum
/forum/
http://www.dynapacaustintranet.com.au/forum
BUT get an Error when I try to run: Unable to load SMF settings. Please make sure etc....

Am I missing something?

Richard

The Forum base path needs to be the filesystem path to the forum directory. For example:

I have MODx installed at the root, and the SMF installed in /forum under the root. I have Base Url:



and Forum base path:



Which seems to be what’s needed, although it’s not working correctly, at least the paths appear correct.

path do not include trailing slashes indeed...

Did anyone manage to make the module work ?
Still no success here...

Code:
/home/sottwell/public_html/forum
Which seems to be what’s needed, although it’s not working correctly, at least the paths appear correct.

Thanks. I’m in, now I get the same result as others. Links to Admin and Sync don’t do anything.

Hi everyone.

Well I have the module working great on my system.

I’m using SMF1.1RC2, IIS5, MODx 0.9.1. both my SMF and MODx tables are in the same database.

Please let me know what type of configuration you are using.

When you click on the Sync Users link what happens? Any screen shot? Any JavaScript alerts?

By clicking on the Sync User link you should get a JS alert then a screen showing you what users where synchronized. The system should not overwrite existing user accounts.

Same SMF and MODx here, but using two separate databases. The javascript alert is working on the sync link.

When I delete a MODx web user of the same name as an SMF user, it deletes or deactivates the SMF user as specified in the module configuration.
