Many years back I used a module that allowed me to post news on the main page and it would auto post that news in the forum.. or maybe it was the other way.. lol. anyway, is there anything still available like that? |

Sorry but this makes no sense in each way. Both modules are totally different. On this way you would also create duplicated content which is not allowed in order to get SEO friendly results on google & co. |

Yes, that module was made by Noto from clanthemes. Ped temporarily opened ClanThemes so I could retrieve some file and forum threads, and that was one of them.
V2 allows you to have a specific forum where you set the permissions to how you want them and any new topic you start in there, will be posted on the home page.
V3 has a little checkbox at the bottom that allows you to make any forum thread you, (the administrator), create, into a news article that will show up on the home page, so as long as you set the default home module to the "Forums_News" module. |

I have V3 installed and working. Only issue is the image size. The response you gave from my other post worked, however, it does not carry over to what's added to the mainpage News. There isn't a style sheet for the forumnews mod, so would you know how I can correct the issue?
Btw, the theme I'm using I purchased from ClanThemes a while back. Is that site closed for good? |

Do you have a link to that other post? I am not sure what you mean about the image size. May be something that needs to be edited in the module.
Yes, ClanThemes is shut down permanently. It was shut down to many factors, that's why I grabbed what i could and the most popular things that people requested or wanted. |

bummer. i liked and bought many of their themes.

that's the link about the image size topic but I did not post the ForumNews image question there. basically after I added the code to the .css file you suggested, picture sizes in forum posts were limited to whatever size I set. The issue was when that forum post was also used for front page news, the image displayed was the original size, which if the image is too large, will totally mess up the theme spacing.
I looked through the ForumNews V3 files to see if I could find anything that would limit image sizes, but I could not. Would you know how I can correct this? |

Plasma, do you have a link to an affected article which is is using this module on your website? It should be done easily with a CSS definition. |

This is a screenshot of what is happening. The original image size dominates the front page when using ForumNews. It should be all aligned under the main header image. |

Yes I know what do you mean but I need a link to identify the parent css class. You can send me the link via PM! |

I believe you can go into the style.css of the theme you are using and add in this:
css Code:.posttext img {
max-width:400px;
max-height:400px;
}
|
The reason I did both width and height is sometimes you get some taller images that are not as wide. You can set those to whatever value you want. But by doing max-width and max-height, it will resize your image so it keeps in the same aspect ratio when being resized. I don't know if RN has the lightbox jQuery effect, but you could attach that to the image so people can still click on the time to see the full size image. |

How can I find out if RN has this option? |

Maybe neralex or nuken would be better to answer this. I have not used RN for many years now, since before I started using Evo. I had it installed as a test site a year+ ago, but I never dug into the code that much to see what they may have or not. I don't think it is there by default for I know at one time they said they wanted to keep the CMS as vanilla as they could. So, if that's the case, then you may need to write it into your site, which could be fairly easy to do, its just choosing the one that best suited for your needs. I say that because there are many versions of it, colorbox, lytebox, lightbox are just a few off the top of my head. |

I had never used this module but I guess its all based in the index.php. If yes then open the index.php of this module and find the include of the header.php.
find something like this:
php Code:include_once('header.php');
|
add before:
php Code:$style = '<style type="text/css">' . PHP_EOL
.'#cboxLoadedContent .posttext img {max-width: 100%; max-height: 100%;}' . PHP_EOL
.'</style>' . PHP_EOL;
addCSSToHead($style, 'inline');
$cbox_inline = '<script type="text/javascript">' . PHP_EOL
. '$(document).ready(function(){' . PHP_EOL
# Make ColorBox responsive
. '$.colorbox.settings.maxWidth = \'95%\';' . PHP_EOL
. '$.colorbox.settings.maxHeight = \'95%\';' . PHP_EOL
# ColorBox resize function
. 'var resizeTimer;' . PHP_EOL
. 'function resizeColorBox()' . PHP_EOL
. '{' . PHP_EOL
. ' if (resizeTimer) clearTimeout(resizeTimer);' . PHP_EOL
. ' resizeTimer = setTimeout(function() {' . PHP_EOL
. ' if ($(\'#cboxOverlay\').is(\':visible\')) {' . PHP_EOL
. ' $.colorbox.load(true);' . PHP_EOL
. ' }' . PHP_EOL
. ' }, 300);' . PHP_EOL
. '}' . PHP_EOL
# Resize ColorBox when resizing window or changing mobile device orientation
. '$(window).resize(resizeColorBox);' . PHP_EOL
. 'window.addEventListener("orientationchange", resizeColorBox, false);' . PHP_EOL
# start colorbox
. '$(\'.posttext img\').click(function() {' . PHP_EOL
. ' $(this).colorbox({' . PHP_EOL
. ' inline: true,' . PHP_EOL
. ' href: this,' . PHP_EOL
# close colorbox with a click on the image
. ' onComplete:function(result){' . PHP_EOL
. ' $(this).unbind().click($.colorbox.close);' . PHP_EOL
. ' }' . PHP_EOL
. ' });' . PHP_EOL
. '});' . PHP_EOL
. '});' . PHP_EOL
. '</script>' . PHP_EOL;
addJSToBody($cbox_inline, 'inline');
|
This code is using the colorbox addon which is included in RN. It will generate the colorbox in a responsive way with a extra-option to close the colorbox with a click on the image inside. And it shows the image with the full size but it will be reduced to 95% if the image is larger than your current screen size. |

When I add the ForumNews V3 module I'm getting the following error after I upload the edited files:
The error comes when I try and submit the new forum post..
Code:Error in posting
DEBUG MODE
SQL Error : 1054 Unknown column 'forum_news' in 'field list'
INSERT INTO nuke_bbtopics (topic_title, topic_poster, topic_time, forum_id, topic_status, topic_type, forum_news, topic_vote) VALUES ('This is the message test', 3, 1476990844, 3, 0, 0, 1, 0)
Line : 227
File : functions_post.php
|
the files edited are:
constrants.php
postings.php
functions_post.php
the first instruction of the INSTALL-Raven.txt states:
Code:## SQL: run this SQL query with phpmyadmin on your nuke database.
##----------------------------------------------------
ALTER TABLE nuke_bbtopics ADD forum_news tinyint(3) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 AFTER topic_type;
|
The best I can tell I did this, however I'm not 100% sure.
Also, I'm not seeing the topic_title in this line
Code:INSERT INTO nuke_bbtopics (topic_title, topic_poster, topic_time, forum_id, topic_status, topic_type, forum_news, topic_vote) VALUES ('This is the message test', 3, 1476990844, 3, 0, 0, 1, 0)
|
The topic title I put in as "This is a post test". It does not show up in the line above.
I really would like to get this working but I'm at a point where I need more help. If anyone has anything I could try, I'd really appreciate it. |

Easy way to tell is to go into your phpMyAdmin and look up the table nuke_bbtopics and select the structure for it and see if you have the "forum_news". If not, then run that SQL. That error you posted is saying it is not there. |

It is there now.. Still getting this error:
Code:Error in posting
DEBUG MODE
SQL Error : 1054 Unknown column '5100b28937' in 'field list'
INSERT INTO nuke_bbposts (topic_id, forum_id, poster_id, post_username, post_time, poster_ip, enable_bbcode, enable_html, enable_smilies, enable_sig) VALUES (8014, 3, 3, 'test 10-21-16', 1477060245, 'aeda8d47', 1, 1, 0, 5100b28937)
Line : 241
File : functions_post.php

not sure if it matters, but my bbpost structure from the actual SQL looks like:
Code:INSERT INTO `nuke_bbposts` (`post_id`, `topic_id`, `forum_id`, `poster_id`, `post_time`, `poster_ip`, `post_username`, `enable_bbcode`, `enable_html`, `enable_smilies`, `enable_sig`, `post_edit_time`, `post_edit_count`, `post_attachment`) VALUES

I double checked my edits and found one mistake, but still getting this error:
Code:SQL Error : 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' 0)' at line 1
INSERT INTO nuke_bbtopics (topic_title, topic_poster, topic_time, forum_id, topic_status, topic_type, forum_news, topic_vote) VALUES ('hhhhhhhhh', 3, 1477315330, 3, 0, 0, , 0)
Line : 227
File : functions_post.php
|
Another thing I found out is when posting in the forum, if I select "Homepage news" instead of "Normal", it works. It's only when "Normal", "Sticky" or "Announcement" are selected..
I'm still not able to pinpoint the source of the error. Anyone know what i can check?
Is the error because there isn't an entry for the "Forum_news" part => VALUES ('hhhhhhhhh', 3, 1477315330, 3, 0, 0, HERE, 0) |
