click to patch - Patch SMF Source Files (Note: Unpatch before upgrading SMF or installing mod.) gives the following error ...

Failed: Code to be patched not found in file: if (!defined('WIRELESS'))/home/damian/public_html/training/forum/index.php

Also the about page gives heaps of errors such as ...

Sorta the same but different.

Updated to SMF 1.1.3

Superdaantje you figure that andy doesn't bother to read or search.

I could say where is the user guide and what user guide and how do I know what to search for on the forum if I don't know what to search for.

I've spent yonks here and other than this page (which is out of date) can find nothing that references Joomla 1.0.13 and SMF 1.1.3.

Chances are that his dumb question is actually highlighting the need to provide a page that is linked from the front page showing what bridge version to use with what Joomla! and SMF combination.

So I'll ask the question

What bridge do I use with Joomla! 1.0.13 and SMF 1.1.3?

I have the same problem.

Default template has 3 columns (T1)
Forum template has 1 column (T2)

Forum is assigned the T2 template and it works fine until you click inside the forum, then the T1 template is used.

There is no issue with the css of either the template wrapped round the forum nor the forum itself ... just that the T1 becomes the default not T2 which has been assigned.

I can see where Maurizio is coming from and it's not the css nor the template design that is the problem it's that the assigned template isn't being kept by the SMF.

My problem with your approach is I don't see how the css of the forum will influence the choice of the template assigned by Joomla.

Is there any SMF related codeI need to apply to the template itself?

I'm beginning to think it actually is an itemid issue, as the whole look and feel of the site is perfect. Sorry Livebox 

Here's what I have ...

Menu link is  .... index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=80
Links inside the SMF are all  ... index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=78

There is no menu item with itemid 78 in any menu and none in the trash either.

----------- Solution ----------
I've left the post above so that others searching may see what's happened as what I'm about to say makes no sense otherwise.

When I first made a menu link to the forum it had Itemid=78 and was in the the wrong menu.
I removed that item id and trashed it.
I created a new menu item now Itemid=80

I've been away for a day and I've discovered that the problem was actually cookies.

Yes I've got cookies with Itemid=78 in them .... clean all the cookies and whammo it works!!

Doh!!  A trap so obvious when you think of it! <shaking head><red faced>

Thanks to all for your time

I'm not explaining this well eh?   

Template A ... is the default 3 colunm template applies to everything except the forum

Template B ... is the single colunm template which is assigned to the SMF menu link.

When I click on the link to SMF Template B is used. Which is correct.
When I click on any link inside the SMF Tempalte A is used. Which is not correct.

Trying to work out why it's reverting to the default (Template A) and not what's assigned. It's never happened before hence my query as to whetehr this is a bridge issue or SMF issue

Ok I can understand that ...

• where should this go or is there a thread about this here?
• conflicting css isn't the issue here I believe as the SMF template is workign ok, it's the wrapper which is causing the issue. The wrong template get's used when you click inside the SMF.

-- edit clarity --
Thanks

I have a site with two templates.

The default template has 3 colunms and the assigned template has 1

I've assigned the single colunm template to the menu item which links to the SMF and that works ok .... BUT click on any link in the SMF and whammo the default 3 colunm template is what is used.

I don't believe this is a SMF issue as I've used this concept with SMF where I didn't use a bridge. Using this bridge/hack makes it happen.

What am I missing or what haven't I done which I should have?
