Forum Integrations

I'm not sure if this is a bug or intended feature, but I have searched a few times and haven't come across an answer. I'm implementing a wiki on a forum, have bought Vault Wiki and we are just making sure it is integrated exactly right before we go live. As such, it is not visible on the site as yet.

The ability to integrate wiki articles into forum threads is very useful and we anticipate doing that a lot, however taking it a step further and integrating them into the top of forums/sub-forums is something we are exploring. The issue we keep running into though, is that when we integrate a wiki into a sub-forum, it then appears in every thread in that forum as well. Is this intentional behaviour?

What we would like is for the wiki article to appear solely in the sub-forum, and not be replicated in all the threads as well. I note that if I go into a thread and then choose a different wiki article to place in that thread, it doesn't break anything, but some of my sub-forums have over 500 threads that I don't need the wiki article appearing on.

Thanks for any insight.

Yes, what you describe is the intended behavior (if there is no thread integration defined, the forum integration is inherited by the thread).

You can override this behavior with a plugin:

Hookname: vw_load_controller
Product: vBulletin or your own product

Code:

if (strtolower($classname) == 'ui/integrate/forum') { $extends[] = 'My/Integrate/Forum'; }

Create the file /vault/plugins/controller/my/integrate/forum/vw.php

PHP Code:

<?php class vw_My_Integrate_Forum_Controller_Plugin extends vw_My_Integrate_Forum_Controller_Proxy { public function get_stack(&$can_edit) { $stack = parent::get_stack($can_edit); if (count($stack) == 2) { array_pop($stack); } return $stack; } }

Apologies for my late response.

Thank you for getting back to me, things are working brilliantly! I hope to go live with the wiki very soon to give the rest of the userbase something to play with.
