Print Page - Problem? CHECK HERE FIRST!

The latest version of JSMF is 2.0 Final and can be downloaded here (http://www.joomlahacks.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,94/topic,2972.msg14559#msg14559) or here (http://www.joomlahacks.com/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,41/func,fileinfo/id,477/). Need a pre-patched Joomla index? They are attached to this post and can be downloaded by registered users. The CB plugins and Joomap plugins can be found in the 3rd Party Plugins download section (http://www.joomlahacks.com/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,41/func,select/id,88/) in the Joomla-SMF Forum Project category (http://www.joomlahacks.com/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,41/func,select/id,13/).

In order to allow myself and others to help you, include the version number of all the following that apply:

Joomla
SMF
JSMF
CB
PHP
MySQL

Any module questions should also include their version number.

1) Check the JSMF User Guide (http://www.joomlahacks.com/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,41/func,fileinfo/id,448/) before asking a question. Many problems can be solved by reading the documentation that explains the functionality of the bridge. Included in the user guide is a FAQ that might answer your question as well. The JSMF User Guide can be downloaded in the download section of this site (http://www.joomlahacks.com/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,41/func,select/id,13/).

2) Search these forums! (http://www.joomlahacks.com/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,94/action,search) Most if not all questions have been answered previously. If you don't find what you are looking for and the JSMF User Guide did not answer your question, then post following the guidelines posted above.

3) THIS BRIDGE DOES NOT WORK WITH SMF 1.0.X! Do not post a problem with your SMF 1.0.x install and the bridge. You will no longer get a response from me. The user guide, the bridge install, and these forums all clearly document that the bridge is only compatible with SMF 1.1.X.

4) Real name displaying in Forum. Use this SQL to update all your current user's real names to their usernames.

Code:

UPDATE smf_members SET realName = memberName;

5) JoomFish capability? It is possible although I have not tested it:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=29360.15
Can someone who has a joomfish site confirm?

6) Blank screen? That is a clear sign of a php fatal error either do to configuration or memory allocation. Turn your joomla error reporting in joomla global configuration->server tab to maximum. If you do not see the error being displayed on the page after doing so you will need to check your php error_log. The php error_log location is defined in your php.ini and will be different on just about every host. To find its location check either with your webhost or read about it on www.php.net. If you are unable in any way to get the error_log you can enable it at runtime by adding the following code to your joomla index.php file at the top:

Code:

ini_set('log_errors', 1);
ini_set('error_log', 'error_log');

This will write a file in your joomla root with any error messages that occur.

7) Receiving error message
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: () in ... on line #
This is a problem with the fact SMF uses a set of functions stored in an array named $func. There are other components that use a variable named $func and inadvertently overwrite SMF's definition. A simple fix is to open the file from which the error is being reported and the line before the erro call the function reloadSettings(). This will trigger SMF to reload the $func array. For example, if you receive the error:

Code:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: () in /homepages/yourhome/htdocs/somedir/joomla/forum/Sources/Subs.php on line 871

Then you would open this file:
/homepages/yourhome/htdocs/somedir/joomla/forum/Sources/Subs.php

And on line 871 you would change the code from this:

Code:

if (strpos($str, $token) !== false)
$str = str_replace($token, $func['ucwords'](strftime($token, $time)), $str);

To this:

Code:

if (strpos($str, $token) !== false) {
reloadSettings();
$str = str_replace($token, $func['ucwords'](strftime($token, $time)), $str);
}

Take note of the curly braces that needed to be added in this example, both the opening and closing curly brace.

If you have an error that is different than this one and are unable to solve it, please post the exact error and I will post the solution.
