FoxTemplates: CreateNewForumX

Create a Forum in a different group

Step 1

• Choose your forum name, lets call it "MyForum" , which will be the name of a new wiki group.

1. Rename or copy local/Forum.php to local/MyForum.php.
2. Revise this file as needed after forum is created with step 2
3. Add to config.php before include of foxforum.php:
   $FoxPagePermissions['MyForum.*'] = 'all';

Without page permissions being set for the new forum group, the page copy process of step 2 will fail!

Step 2

• Enter the new forum name into the box below, add the accesscode, and press "Create".
• You will see Fox messages to show if pages are created correctly.
• If the page permissions were set correctly in step 1 a new forum group will be created,
  and you can go to the new Forum index page and start creating new topics straight away.
• If there was a problem with page creation, check if the $FoxPagePermission set in config.php
  allow 'copy' and 'add' to the new forum group.
• If you see plain markup directives below, and not just a form, then fox.php is not installed
  in config.php and cannot operate from this FoxTemplates group.

Enter forum Group Name:

Enter value <- Have you entered the code number?

Create new Forum:

Step 3

• Change display configurations for the new forum from the page ForumConfig.
