Thanks, Smirkley - I just tested it out and this is *amazing*.

I have another question: is there a way I can have the articles housed in its own directory (i.e. /articles) rather than /forum/articles.php? if possible, I'm assuming I'd have to edit the articles.php file or something?

Furthermore, depending on the answer to the above question, can the links be re-written if I have vBSEO?

Thanks.

Don't you mean you don't have them set as active? This way they are still accessible but not listed in the Forum list.

Yes, my bad,... you are correct.

I'd really love to see this work with The Image Resizer - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=184571

Looking at the modification, it seems to be putting the correct JS and CSS into the article code. This mod doesn't seem to be parsing correctly when displaying the image - it's not creating the link around the image. :(

No problem... this is also how I have mine setup and wanted to make sure it was accurate in case people have followed our lead.

Okay, I found some vBSEO-related posts within this thread and it doesn't look like it's easy to setup, so I won't worry about it.

So this is the only question I have for now: is there a way I can have the articles housed in its own directory (i.e. /articles) rather than /forum/articles.php? if possible, I'm assuming I'd have to edit the articles.php file or something?

Thanks!

I'm really new to this, I tried to install but nothing happens when I try to open the page.
except I get this message:

404 - Not Found
The page you are trying to access does not exist.
If this error persists, please contact the website webmaster.
If you are the webmaster of this site make sure that:

You have uploaded correctly your files to the public_html directory which is the web-root of your account;
You have not misspelled the URL. Bear in mind that letters are case sensitive and no white spaces are recommended;
In case you have applied SEO - SEF URL rewriting rules, make sure you have re-named the htaccess.txt file to .htaccess. If there is already a non-empty .htaccess file read it and make sure the necessary rules are un-commented.

1) I uploaded the xml page and made a forum.
2). Tried to open the upload file but there's nothing inside... downloaded twice just in case)

Can someone help... Thanks in advance:confused:

There's an articles.php file in the upload folder that goes in your forum root. The XML file is a product file that is imported thorugh the Product Manager of your Admin CP, not uploaded to the forum. Your getting a 404 error, becuase you've not uploaded the page yet, or because your navigating to the wrong page.

Very nice share = Thanks!
Question: Do you accept donations to remove the footer credit?
Again - Thanks very much for sharing.

Jacquii.

I was wondering the same thing. I was going to ask once my questions got answered and I got it up and running.

Let me know if you get an answer any way other than through this thread. ;)
