CPMS & vbJournal

[MotoUp]

Has anyone ever installed vbJournal that's running CPMS? For some reason the journal link on the portal page doesn't work, it doesn't have the /forums after the domain...but once inside the forums, it works fine...If the navbar is the same in the forum as the portal, how would i go about fixing this for the portal? Oh knowledgeable Brian, I summon you once again! :D

I think I am having a similar error,
I just installed vbJournal and tried to use the method used in http://www.vbadvanced.com/membersarea.php?do=viewmanual&productid=4&pageid=6 which i have sucessfully used for the forums and for vBa Gallery to put navbars on each page, however with the journal it seems to ignore the vba page aspect and just adds everything anything as if the page does not exist. I think this might be because of dud themes, but can anyone else shed some light on this issue?

Nevermind i got mine working....
Journal seems to work fine for me actually.

MotoUp - You need to add $vboptions[bburl]/ in front of the link in your navbar.

mattster2002 - Did you search for each place that you see 'print_output' in the file and replace it with the code in the instructions? There seem to be quite a few places that it would need to be changed.

Okay, here's what I have...even looking at the other code, I'm not sure where and what to put...do I replace the [bburl] with something?

</if>
<td id="journalnavbar" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="#journalnavbar">Journal</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("journalnavbar"); </script>

Try searching for 'journalnavbar' that's within a <div> tag in your template. After you find it you should see the links somewhere right below that.

[MotoUp]

Am I looking for that in the navabar template, or in one of the templates that I created for the journal?

[Brian]

Should be the navbar template. If it's not in that one try searching your templates and see if it comes up with anything.

[MotoUp]

If I change the link to the journal though, won't it change it in the forums too, not just the portal links?

[Brian]

If you add the full URL to it then it won't matter where you are on the site as it will always be the same. Currently it looks in for the file in the folder that you are currently in, which obviously isn't going to work if you're anywhere besides your forum directory.

Ok, I think I'm with ya now. I found it. It was at the bottom of the template. I thought the code I posted was all that was in there. Thank again. You're always a great help.
