Xforum - Proof of Concept front end forum


Recommended Posts

Xforum is a proof of concept front end forum system and is currently for local testing only.

To install, have a blank site ready using the newest Processwire version. Follow the instructions found in the xforum_install.txt file.

There is no help documentation at the moment, but it is pretty easy to figure out once you click around a bit. I'll attach any new help files here as they are created. Have fun with it and any questions please don't hesitate.

Many thanks for the module. 

I have some small ideas that could make it easier to install the forum on an existing site and integrate it seamlessly into the layout. Are you planning to make the module available on GitHub?

Your welcome @markus-th , thanks for your interest.

As far as integrating into an existing site, I haven't gotten that far yet. I was going to tackle that soon but I have so many things to tidy up first, mainly documentation, messaging, etc etc etc. Adding some code to a template should work, but there is also a few code changes that would have to be made.

I have never used github but I had planned on learning it in the future. Any thoughts or tips are welcomed, for now you can pm me or email ( bottom of home page ).

Please do that. It will help you as a developer and it will help us making exploring your module (and maybe contributing) easier.

If you use VSCode Github is integrated into it very well, so you won't even need the commandline. I highly recommend installing this extension: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=mhutchie.git-graph It has shed so much light on things that I didn't understand before and after using this extension it clicked and things just made sense.
