[Tutorial] Basic Site-Forum Integration

[Lachlan]

First of all get rid of the "public_html" in the 2nd line, as that is not the relative directory to your forums from the file.

I'm still getting this error:

PHP Code:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/rctloung/public_html/header.inc:4) in /home/rctloung/public_html/forums/inc/functions.php on line 1216 


Other than that, everything works fine!

I'm getting this error when I try to use the recent posts feature:

Quote:Error: Database connection failed."); $sel = mysql_select_db($data,$conn) or die("Error: Database connection failed."); if($author == TRUE) { ?>
" href="showthread.php?tid=&action=lastpost"> by 's Profile" href="member.php?action=profile&uid=">

Heres the url for where I'm using it: http://www.crazycomputers.org

Also, should I be worried if users can easily access all of the database information when using this code?

Edit: Also, when you go to the site you see the login box that came with the theme, is there anyway to use that login box with the code here so it will log users into the forum?

Firstly the login box on your theme can be used you just need to edit the form to something like shown below

PHP Code:

<form action="http://www.crazycomputers.org/forums/member.php" onsubmit="return submitted();" method="post" name="member_log_in" id="member_log_in">
    <input type="hidden" name="action" value="do_login">
    <input type="hidden" name="url" value="">
    <label>Username:</label>
    <input name="username" class="txtBox" type="text">
    <label>Password:</label>
    <input type="password" name="password" class="txtBox">
    <a href="http://www.crazycomputers.org/forums/member.php?action=register">Sign up here!</a>
    <input name="go" value="" class="go" type="submit">
    <br class="spacer">
  </form> 


You will also need to make sure you have the various items required in the header tags of your page as shown in the first few post in this thread.

As for the error you are getting i do not use the code mentioned in the first post for getting the recent post instead i use the plugins that are available in the mods area.

Posting the code here of the page might help to find your problem.

I want to add in statistics who's online: online count(users+guests), onlined user nicks and guest count. How I can make it?

[RogueDOC]

Is there a way to pick what forum/forums we can pull the recent post from?
