check the path you are using in the [Discuss this story] to link to goforum.cgi
BTW, good to see you using the Currently Online addon.

What happens when you upload the script as is, without any modifications, and set the permissions? When you try and access it does it give you an error? If that gives you an error it's likely a problem not related to the script, check the permissions and the first line of the script (that looks like this: "#!/usr/bin/perl", make sure that points to right place for perl on your server). I could also be that you don't have the FindBin module on your server, you can try commenting that line out and setting your $Bin folder manually.
If when you upload the original script (without any modifications) and it does work, it likely means you broke something will setting everything up. It's actually really easy to do that with perl, it's very picky if you forget a " or a ;. Try changing one setting at a time and uploading to try and see what's breaking it.
Hope that helps.
PS: We also have a new installation service on the order page if you don't want to hassle with it yourself. Although, you'll likely figure it out if you spend a little more time on it.

Oooh this looks good.
One problem tho - we've been using DiscusWare's discussion board for years (since '96).
I'm sure a lot of people still use this board.
Would it be possible to get this add-on working with their product?
have a look at http://www.discusware.com for more details.

Hi!
I am really trying to get this to work but am having problems, when I follow these directions-
would it be possible to have the script post the new thread in different forums according to category? It would, but you'd have to add some perl code. You would want to add something like the following a couple of lines after "# remove HTML for record data if requested" but before "# create new thread". # specify forum cat based on article cat if ($rec{'cat'} == 3) { $g{'forum_num'} = 12; } if ($rec{'cat'} == 4) { $g{'forum_num'} = 22; } Note: You'll need to check what your article manager category numbers are (referenced here with $rec{'cat'}).
But when I use the code in the current goforum.cgi it still defaults to the forum number here-
$g{'forum_num'} = 1; # forum number to create thread in
$g{'forum_board'} = 'TGBGENDESC'; # board name, ubbthreads and UBB only
$g{'forum_cat'} = '2'; # category, ubbthreads only
Any ideas for a good work around?

>But when I use the code in the current goforum.cgi it still defaults to the forum number here...
It must not be matching any of the category numbers specified. If you specify a forum_num for EVERY artman category you could use an if/elsif statement and have it error at the end if no categories were matched to help you track down problems. Like this:
# specify forum cat based on article cat
if ($rec{'cat'} == 3) { $g{'forum_num'} = 12; }
elsif ($rec{'cat'} == 4) { $g{'forum_num'} = 22; }
elsif ($rec{'cat'} == 5) { $g{'forum_num'} = 22; }
elsif ($rec{'cat'} == 6) { $g{'forum_num'} = 22; }
else { die("Error: No forum_num specified for artman category '$rec{'cat'}'\n"); }
Let me know if that helps any! : )

Dave,
Just a heads up on the Discuss add on when using the Community plugin for GForum.
This will change the method and location of the actual login for the automatic login needed for posting an article for discussion (1st time auto post) and for the secondary viewer it should not effect the pre-posted link but it will effect the viewer if they would like to reply to the post of course.
The main issue will be the initial post by the automated user.
Hope this helps!
Brian

I have 2 requested additions to the goforum script:
1. I do not like the plain error message if the article is older than x days..... I would like to see a simple pop up window (html) that tells the postings are no longer allowed, then the main window is automatically redirected back to where they were already at (the article I mean).
2. I would also like to add the article URL at the bottom of the discussion forum posting so people reading the forum, who have not seen the article yet, can get to the article from the posting.

Dave,
We're having problems implementing this - is UBB6x supported yet? With debug mode turned on, we get: Server response to new thread request
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found Date: Wed, 05 Feb 2003 11:17:16 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) PHP/4.1.1 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Not Found
The requested URL /cgi-bin/ubbcgi/postings.cgi was not found on this server.
Apache/1.3.26 Server at linux.westmidlands.com Port 80
Content-type: text/html Error logging in to forum. No 200 response code!
-----------------------------------------------------
Looking in our ubbcgi directory, postings.cgi doesn't seem to exist in UBB6.
Thanks,

Hi micknutson and aGoldStraw,
Thanks for your posts. Concerning custom jobs, we do offer custom programming services, so if you want we could always do this for you. You could contact out Theo, our head of custom programming directly if you wish. And, as an added benefit, any modifications which are made to the goforum will be made available to everyone - so people will be very happy with you! :-)
- GoForum doesn't currently support UBB6X forum, but within the program code there are many examples for how we coded support for the other forums. So if you have a Perl programmer you normally work with you can always have him code the support for fud forum...
Again, we do have custom programming services if you so desire.

Any change that Invision Board is compatible yet? It comes with our web hosting (one click to setup) which is why I am asking. Would be super easy for us if it was compatible with AM.

Hi Zus,
Thanks for your post! :)
Currently GoForum does not support Invision Board. GoForum supports the following Bulletin Boards: vbulletin ubbthreads gossamer forum ikonboard discus
As Ben noted in his previous post, we do offer custom programming, so if you were interested in having us modify goforum to support Invision Board we could always look into this for you. You could contact Theo our Project Manager.
Additionally, if you have a Perl programmer on board (or know of one) you can always have him/her modify the code to support Invision Board. The GoForum code is made entirely available, and there are many examples within the code that a programmer could use to develop support for other forums.
In any case, I'll add Invision Board to our list of feature requets for GoForum. If you have any other questions please feel free to let me know!

For those looking to add new forum support to goforum, we offer this at a $75 flat fee.
This usually takes us more time than we would ordinarily bill at that amount, but we offer a discounted rate since it provides support for any Article Manager users with that forum system.

Thanks Luke and Theo.
If I might ask though, what forum does IT use? I like the simplicity of it and since you folks use it with AM, it might be best to purchase it since AM works so well with it already and it has been integrated with AM for some time (bugs worked out).

Hi Zus,
We use Gossamer Threads (http://www.gossamer-threads.com/) for our forums, and yes, this is supported with the goforums add-on. :)

gofrum 1.9 is out now... doesn't look like IT will add UBB6+
You know, I was looking at the script, I'm not a perl expert but it doesn't look to hard to config... if we can get the calls and info from UBB.

Are we allowed to request/suggest a forum software program to intecorporate this add-on?
I've been testing Invision Power Board (IPB) v1.2, which is an Open Source message forum program. This is their latest stable release.
Thank you!
