This seems to be a really must have extension for my community driven website. Thank you for your work!

Will this extension work eZ Publish 4.4?
I could test it, but I have several more days of work until I reach the point where I need to implement the forum, so I would like to know how much time I should plan for implementing it.

Hey,

nice that you want to try my extension, i dont see a reason why it should not work under 4.4 so i guess you can implement it (but i didnt test it yet).

To implement the extension i guess you will need 10-30min.. not more, there is a installation document attached, just follow the steps, should be quite easy and fast. good luck, let me know it if you implement it and use it in the end actually. i still havent seen a single live page with my extension. (link would be nice) thx in advance and let me know if you need more help. :)

greetings

edit: i might install it in 1 week for 4.4 to test it :) i update this post here then.

Thank you for your answer, this is good news.

I did not start building the actual website yet so I did not tried to install it, but I will start implementation soon. I will post the link to the website as soon as i is done, if you want to see an implementation on a site.

Have you managed to install it on 4.4 version?

hey,

i just did setted it up for ez 4.4 community version. it works 99%

no fatal errors no php warnings no nothing.
took me less then 10min to setup, 30min to fix my setup cause i wasnt reading carefull what i wrote half a year ago.

so i give you those hints:

- read EVERY SINGLE STEP of my install instructions, if you do what is written there then its no problem to set up.
- especially check your design settings, dont forget these (like i did) u will need it for front and backend so you can set it up in override i guess
- set up the workflows correctly! better double check (thats the most "hardest" part in installation)
- use the correct nodes in the override ini
- dont forget to go to backend and setup the IDs there

and now the most important:

eZ has the classes folder, forums, forum, topic, reply but as demo content it delivers folder => forum => topic i dont know why eZ dont use all the classes they got in there demo pages. so i highly recommand not to use the demo content from eZ.

build it like that: 1) folder/frontpage(doesnt matter what) as forum index 2) forums 3) forum 4) topic 5) reply

thats how a forum works for me in my opinion and thats how i created my templates so watch out to keep that order if you use my extension.

so good luck. extension works with 4.4!

P.S. you might spot a problem when using smiliess and BB codes when creating a topic but thats a simple javascript error, u can fix it easy. just the child or subnode when trying to search the input field might differs, just try to use 1 number more or less.. but maybe you wont even have that problem :)

P.P.S. another good new, if you use 4.4 then you dont need to add the patch, my extension works without it then.
