Mamboboard - cannot edit / delete posts - 2006/01/05 09:39
Since upgrading from Simpleboard to Mamboboard, I seem to be unable to edit or delete any posts on my forum. I do not get an error message at all - I simply go in, either click on edit or delete, then all is normal (I can edit the post, or confirm my deletion), but when I save the changes, I am presented with a normal Mamboboard screen with "Home" and "Help" etc at the top.
No changes have been made. It does not sound as though the changes are being written to the database. Any idea why this is happening? I can post without incident, but just editing and deleting posts seems to be the issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This is the only problem preventing me from adding this feature to my site, any ideas?

So, it looks like we are all having the same problem, but no-one who works on the Mamboboard team has come in to help us, least of all acknowledge that they are aware of our pleas for help.
This is becoming a real annoyance for me - I might see if I can go back to Simpleboard for the time being. I am finding it impossible to manage my forum, beause I cannot delete or edit posts.
Anyone from Remository care to help us out? Please??!!

Hello? Anyone at all prepared to help us? This is so f*cking ridiculous - for a Support forum, there appears to be very little support being given around here...

I switched to Simpleboard and everything works fine, I suggest you all do the same.

post.php Line 647
Find:
| Code: |
<form action="<?php echo sefRelToAbs("index.php?option=com_mamboboard&Itemid=$Itemid&catid=$catid&func=post"«»); ?>"
|
Replace with:
| Code: |
<form action="<?php echo sefRelToAbs("index.php?option=com_mamboboard&Itemid=$Itemid&catid=$catid&func=post&do=editpostnow&id=$id&catid=$catid"«»); ?>"
|
Save it, done.
I leave no trace of wings in the air, but I am glad I have had my flight. |

Thanks, Tom - that altered line of code worked really well. I found two instances of the original line of code in the file "post.php", with one referring to editing posts, and the other referring to deleting posts. I replaced both lines of code with your revised line, and it worked a treat. So, once again, thank you very much.
Sadly, however, I've now discovered another bug in the Mamboboard system. Now that I can delete posts fine, if I delete an entire thread, an empty thread view appears. The title of the thread, and the link to click on, are gone, but the number of posts and last post details remain.
Anyone know how to fix Mamboboard so that when you delete a thread, it wipes all trace of the entry away? You can see my problem at http://www.btrproductions.org/index.php?option=com_mamboboard&Itemid=75&func=showcat&catid=2 but you will need to register as a forum user though...

you wrote "I replaced both lines of code with your revised line". for deleting in line 760 it should read "...do=deletepostnow..." instead of "...do=editpostnow...". In my case it worked fine.

I believe that these problems are fixed in MamboBoard 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. If not, please let me know.
Since Matthew Kopelke is so dissatisfied, perhaps he could explain precisely what he has f*cking contributed to these developments, the benefit of which he gets entirely for free? Comments like his are calculated to discourage open source develoers from bothering.

Aside from the foul language, I think this comment is pretty sad - sad to see a developer attacking a user just because they post a request for help in a support forum. What have I contributed? Well, I've contributed by pointing out a bug, for one thing - developers develop software for people to use, and if the software don't work, then people don't use it. Which means the developer is "out of a job".
My comments were not calculated to discourage anyone - they were calculated to ask how I can get the thing to work.

Thanks for the solutions presented on this thread. I was having the same problem and this fixed it.
I have a similar problem with using the 'move' function on mambo board. I assume there is a similar fix.
Does anybody know which php file to edit and what to lines need to be edited?
Many thanks.

Glad to see some constructive responses I'm not personally involved in the development of MamboBoard at present, so find it difficult to offer much help.
Mr Kopelke doesn't seem to like foul language - neither do I, it was a quotation from - Mr Kopelke.
