Re: Using phpBB as your Joomla Comments Engine
Fixed the translation. I just had to publish a new article and then it was correct. :)

NEW VERSION RELEASED - v 0.2 !!!!
Hey, everybody - check out the main article again. I've put up the new, upgraded plugin as well as upgrading instructions.
Make sure you read the upgrade instructions as well as the fix for comment threads showing up as unapproved. The fix requires changing some permissions in phpBB that I can't do anything about in the plugin (yet).
Some big bugfixes in this release:
Now that the major bugs are either fixed or understood, it's time to create a component so that we can store the settings for the plugin between installations and do some more advanced administration, like proper translations, comment bot creation (with proper permissions and flood control turned off) and DB table creation.
Thanks for all the feedback. Try this one out and we'll see what I did wrong.

Some big bugfixes in this release:
- Fixed the MySQL error on thread creation!!
Renamed the plugin "Boylan Comments" because Joomla! won't let you use their name freely
CSS class for comments div now "boylanComments"
Added dropdown parameter for users with phpBBSEO Mod installed.
Now auto-detects to see if user left trailing slash off of phpbb_root_path in parameters, and works with or without the trailing slash
Some general cleanup of sloppy coding.

It looks like the phpbb root path is wrong - are Joomla and phpBB installed on the same site in the same account? What is the path to the Joomla installation and what is the path to phpBB?

Cross-posting. Anyhow - if your phpbb install is at example.com/forum and your joomla install is at example.com/ - then your phpbb root path is "./forum/"

Re: Using phpBB as your Joomla Comments Engine
Yes Joomla and phpbb are installed in the same site Joomla is in the root while phpbb is in subdirectory of /forum
the path to phpbb is ./forum/ that's how i have it configured as well i thought that was the problem as well i might of mistyped or something but i checked to confirm it.
My forum site is darktwilight.com/forum so i did set that path correctly.

Re: Using phpBB as your Joomla Comments Engine
So are the errors fixed? Or are they still around with a phpbb root of ./forum/ ?

Re: Using phpBB as your Joomla Comments Engine
Errors still occur
One question though does phpbb and joomla have to be in the same database? I have mine in two different databases.

Re: Using phpBB as your Joomla Comments Engine
Could you post the errors here again? Because the errors posted above indicate that the phpbb_root_path is still set to ./default/ , and have not been changed to ./forum/

Re: Using phpBB as your Joomla Comments Engine
I have my joomla-installation at the root-folder and phpbb in /joomla2/forum
When the bot posts a new thread the url to the article is http://www.trommeforum.com/joomla2/joom ... rticle.php
How can I remove one of the /joomla2-paths in order to get directed to the article?
Updated to the second version today. :)

Hmm... that's really weird, because the url in the thread linking back to the article is generated from the URL property of the article in Joomla! and has nothing to do with phpbb_root_path. That makes no sense to me whatsoever. Do you have a link to an article and comment thread with the bad links?

Yeah, that makes no sense to me either. You're hitting "save" on that screen after setting it up that way, right? You may have to let me have access to your administration page to figure out what's going on there. That just makes no sense.
