[Tutorial] Basic Site-Forum Integration

[dBlunt]

i get this at the bottom of my page

Code:

Fatal error: Call to a member function run_hooks() on a non-object in /hosted/subs/ulmb.com/d/b/dblunt/public_html/forums/inc/functions.php on line 146

[EZE]

For the recent posts code, this showed up:

Code:

<table>
<tr>
  <td width="50%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<a title="In forum: Version 2" href="forum/showthread.php?tid=&action=lastpost">
<b></b></a></p></td>
  <td width="50%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">by
<b><a title="'s Profile" href="forum/member.php?action=profile&uid=">
</b></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td width="50%" bgcolor="#FCFCFC">

  <td width="50%" bgcolor="#FCFCFC">by

<tr>

  <td width="50%" bgcolor="#FCFCFC">by
<b><a title="'s Profile" href="forum/member.php?action=profile&uid=">
</b></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>

  <td width="50%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<a title="In forum: Off-Topic" href="forum/showthread.php?tid=&action=lastpost">
<b></b></a></p></td>
  <td width="50%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">by
<b><a title="'s Profile" href="forum/member.php?action=profile&uid=">
</b></a></td>
</tr>
</table>

The <a title is correct, but nothing else shows up. The database connections are fine, they are the same ones I used for forum stats, and the forum stats worked fine. I used the correct code, if needed I can post it.

what does the table prefix of your database mean?

[EZE]

I'm not that familiar with mysql, in fact, I've never really coded it at all, but its the beginning statement before all of the tables in your database for mybb. To find it, go to your admin panel, then, in the left column, scroll all the way down to "back up database" and click it. In the select box with all of the tables, the prefix is what comes right before each table name(it is part of the table name). For example, my table prefix is "mybb_", which is the default. Therefore, all of my database tables would look like this:

• mybb_adminlog
• mybb_adminoptions
• mybb_adminsessions
  

and so on. The table prefix in the list is bold.

I'm having a problem with this tutorial. I managed to make it to the end and the login panels appear and work too. Somehow atleast. The problem is that when I press the 'Login' button, it opens my whole forum in the frame where the login form is. What I would want it to do is just to sign in and maybe showing the 'view new posts', 'view new PM's' etc. part of this tutorial. Anyone knows what's wrong?

Oh, and it shows the right things (not the whole forum) when i first login and then refresh the site.

Edit. Also, how can I add 'Logout' link to the list that shows up when logged?
Meaning this:
- View new posts
- View new PM's
- User CP
- Edit Signature
- Edit Avatar
- My Profile
- My Posts

Sorry I can't tell very clearly what I mean.
