Title: "Force" users to wrapped forum
Post by: RJ on April 08, 2007, 01:00:10 PM

Hi-
Is there a way to force users to the wrapped version of SMF? If they click the wrapped link from our website, they are taken to the wrapped version of SMF. However, if they simply type the direct link path, www.mysite.com/forums, they are taken to the unwrapped version. Is it possible that I can stop that from happening?
Thanks-

My game must be off because I've searched for an answer to this and have not found it. I'll search some more.
Thanks,

yoy can use this in the index.php

Code:

// Redirect users who try to access /forum directly
if (strpos($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'], 'dlattach') === false)
{
if(!defined('_VALID_MOS')){ header("Location: /component/option,com_smf/Itemid,17");}

}

here I'am using the path off the forum..more info about this you will find on the forums. ;)

I'll have to keep playing around. I haven't figured out exactly where to put it within the index.php file. Tried the beginning and the end. Changed the 17 to the item id of my forum. Perhaps that is where I am going wrong.

this code goes in your SMF index.php, not your joomla index.php.

Yeah, /forums/index.php. I tried it there and it generates a blank white page.

Okay I know why it is not working for me. The path layout is my problem. This is what I have for the path to SMF wrapped:
http://www.corpsvets.org/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=250
This is what is in the code:
/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,17. How do I make that happen? I figure the 17 would be replaced with 250 and tried that but no joy.
