I can't seem to integrate my forum. I followed the instruction. I clicked on "Integration" on cmps admin. Added a page, filled out the title, Page Identifier, Display Order, Activated Welcome Block because I want members to login from the forums. Went to "Integration" and selected the page I created. Then selected vBulletin Files to Integrate, "Forum.php" and ....the result?

I get the Module Display, "Welcome Block" but no forum???? It's completely gone? Just the module is showing. What am I doing wrong?

Did you make sure that the 'Custom Page Content' module was active on that page?

I am having this same problem. The custom block is active, and I've tried both integrating my forum main page (index2.php) and I've also tried the script way: index. Still no luck, all i get is the modules

OK, I fixed it, but this is really weird. I have to click on the ORIGINAL forum link in order to see the embedded forum, and not the new page link that was created. As long as that new integration page is active, the integration works. But you have to use the default vbadvanced Forum link to see the integration. I just removed the new link that was created from the site navigation just so i don't confuse people. Maybe this is a bug?

Integrated pages have always worked that way. A single CMPS page can be integrated with multiple files, and there's no way for the CMPS to know which file it should pull without actually viewing that file.

I don't know if I'm blind or stupid, but where do I activate this "Custom Page Content Module?" I don't see it under, "Inactive Modules." or when I click on "Edit Modules" I don't see it listed anywhere??? :confused:

It's not listed in the "Edit Modules" page anymore since you can't really edit anything with it. You should see it when editing a page though, either in the "Inactive Modules" or "Modules Enabled" section.

I see it as inactive when editing a page in the "Modules Enabled? So how do I activate it then? This is all I see?

Can you attach the image here instead? I've checked back a few times, but apparently the server you posted it on is down.

It looks like you set that module as inactive at some point when you were running a 2.x version. Try running this query through your Admin CP or PHPmyAdmin and it should set it as active again.

UPDATE adv_modules SET active = 1 WHERE inctype = 'custom'

Then edit one of your modules through the Admin CP and save it so that the module cache will be updated, and then try editing/saving that page again.
