hmmmm weird, cuz im getting:

It kinda broke my board *LOL* I can't even log in to the ACP so I can disable it and downgrade it again:p I'm in good spirit though, I just backed up my sqldb an hour ago, so worst case scenario would be me having to use a 3 weeks old backup of the board itself.

awaiting so help while I feed my son and drink some coffee :)

thumbs up for a great mod btw!

I bet you don't have installed 1.3.1

Recover forum:

This looks like a great mod, before diving in I have a couple of questions:

When you say "every page" do you mean "every page" or just those pages that relate to social groups and forum lists? It seems a bit odd that if, for example, a user is viewing the FAQ pages an additional 2 queries are required.

When/If this is added will this be optional, it could be extremely nasty if a social group owner gets annoyed over something and without thought kills the group and therefore kills a forum that might have some great content in it.

I mean every page. This forum permission check is necessary because users will protect the content of the forums. vBulletin offers possibility on many places to "view" content of a forum. Statistics in profile, RSS Feeds, other hacks, etc...
If you don't need the forum permissions, you can disabled it via options. vBulletin does not offer Hooks in a location where I could "hang in". It has been requested, but it seems that Jelsoft don't see the benefit from it.

There is no possibility to check if a user is a member of a social group, so I have to use a query to gather this information.

I wrote also that such a forum would get deleted OR archived.

Well guess you were right on that part, hmmm must have clicked the wrong folder when I thought I was updating it, anyways, superfast reply, it all worked out, things are back to status quo :)

Cheers, thumbsupx2:up::eek:

SocialForums has been updated to v1.4.

Changes:
1.4.0, 27th May 2008
- Added: If a group has a linked forum the grouplisting has the last post date and count of postings (with permission check).
- Added: Recent threads in linked forum on group home
- Added: Private groups: Link to forum only shown to members of group
- Changed: Enabled permissions for unregistered usergroup. Unregistered Users are not more explicit denied without a check of it's usergroup

Upgrade
1. Uninstall existing version, import the product. No forums get lost!
2. Check settings, especially for parent forum. Don't forget to set permissions via usergroups!

Okay, so the "recent activity" when viewing the Social Group can now show the latest posts in the social forum. However, the avatars are broken in this view.

Very, very nice update!
But is it possible, that just the Topics and not the Posts are shown?

Kind regards
Benny

The lovely avatarrevision. Please download 1.4.1 and update product.

Maybe I will implement such a setting in one of the next version.

Glad to hear that :)
And another request:
I just saw, that User, who are moderator of a SocialForum, appears in the Forum Group Overview. Could you give us an option, that handle this?

Kind regards
Benny
