ForumXML

This plugin - my first - allows you to have simple forums on your site. Forums are saved in xml files.

It's my first plugin ever, and it's a quick and dirty adaptation of the forum made by Philipp Lenssen.

WARNING This plugin use XPath v.3.3 So, it's not compatible with php 5.

The version 3.5 is compatible with php 5, but not with the plugin.

Features :

  • No login
  • Valid XHTML
  • Choice of hierarchical or plane forum

Todo :

  • Admin module
  • Localization
  • Management of messages

You can use it as a forum (!) or as Guestbook, or even as way to permit comments in a page.

To use :

  • Unzip file in your plugins rep.
  • Create a directory “forum” in the root dir.
  • Create a XML file in this directory, and write in this file :

<?xml version=“1.0”?>

<posts archive=“true”>

</posts>

  • insert in the site the function :

#CMSimple $output.= forum(“FileName”, answers(optionnal));#

With FileName = name of the file

and the optional answers = true | false (default to true) to permit a hierarchical forum or only a simple messageboard (kinda Guestbook).

By the way, sorry for my english (I'm french)…
