That's terrific, thank you very much. It'll be in the next release of 2.7.0.

The en_US and de_DE files are fully up to date. If something is not in them, it's safe to assume that it is no longer used, and can thus be ignored.
Hot Topics, for example, were changed in this release. COnsequently, Config.Form.HotTopicStart is no longer used, but there is now Config.Form.HotTopicPercentViews. Russian is also missing RSS.HottestTopics.description and RSS.HottestTopics.title (the latter being just about identical to ForumBase.hottestTopics, so don't bother with that one).

The Moderation Log is for things like posts and topics getting deleted, topics getting moved or locked, and similar acts. It's got nothing to do with moderation of individual posts. I suppose one could add a message there if some post was not approved.
Many translations are missing localized texts for more recent features; we only rarely get people to help on that. If you can supply missing translations, we'd be happy to include them.

There's now a beta version of the upcoming 2.7.0 available, including a war file - see the message at the forum top. All feedback is welcome.

It's been a while since the last release, and we've been busy adding features and fixing bugs to make JForum even better than it already is. While the next version is not quite ready for release, it is stable enough to distribute it more widely and let everyone test it. No additional features are planned before the release, and we know of no bugs, so it should be quite safe to install. A servlet container that supports Servlet API 3.1 is now required, for example Tomcat 8. Some of the features are:
The Trash Can lets you designate one forum as trash can - meaning topics that get deleted are moved to it, rather than actually getting deleted from the database. If the forum is set up to be accessible by admins only, that way you keep deleted topics for future reference without them being publicly visible (which comes in handy on moderated forums frequently)
Banners can be shown on assorted pages, up to 3 at the top and up to 3 at the bottom, either as plain text or with HTML, including links. That could be used for announcements, or ads.

Eight new smilies, some of them animated, like ROFL
Numerous bug fixes
A full list of new features is at https://sourceforge.net/p/jforum2/wiki2/NewFeatures270/, upgrade instructions are at https://sourceforge.net/p/jforum2/wiki2/UpgradingFrom25and26to270/ and you can download it from https://sourceforge.net/projects/jforum2/files/.
Once the release is final, an upgrade from this beta to the final version should be quite painless, so you can use this version without having to fear another upgrade later on. All feedback is welcome.

This post is more of a note to myself than a question, but if anyone has suggestions on how to make the process smoother, I'm all ears.
1) Temporarily remove the net.jforum.summary.SummaryTest.java file. The test never finishes, although that may be more of a Quartz issue than an issue with the test itself.
2) Add the jforum-custom.conf file from your installation to src/main/config - it contains the DB configurations needed to run the tests.
3) Temporarily remove src/main/config/database/postgresql/postgresql.properties (or the corresponding file for whatever DB you're using for the tests). The file is loaded after the jforum-custom.properties, and thus overrides it.
An alternative to steps 2 and 3 would be to edit src/main/config/database/postgresql/postgresql.properties so it contains the values appropriate to your DB.
4) Then perform a clean build when running the tests.
5) Afterwards, undo the above changes before creating the actual build.

Yes, that trunk directory is the source code used to put together public releases. We try to keep it stable and functional whenever possible. If the source of the HEAD doesn't even build, we would consider that a serious bug. Not sure what issue you are seeing, but I just tried the following, and it produced a war file just fine:
svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/jforum2/code/trunk jforum2-code
cd jforum2-code
mvn -DskipTests=true package
Tests need to be skipped because they require database setup.
Make sure to switch the Maven repo from HTTP to HTTPS in your .m2/settings.xml file. That's been required by Maven since December, but has nothing to do with JForum2.

Yes, you'll have to wait until we get around to uploading the 2.7.0 beta. There's only so much time unpaid volunteers can put into a project, I'm afraid (Please visit my home page at https://www.ulfdittmer.com if you want to support me via Amazon or Paypal )
I have checked in a fix for the build problem, though, so you should be able to create your own war file from the latest sources.

I've checked in a fix for this bug. The problem is in the Java code, so there's no easily applicable fix for existing JForum versions. You can either build your own war file from the source code, or wait a few days for me to upload a stable beta version of JForum 2.7; it needs just a little bit more work, but is otherwise ready to go.

I see what's going on, there's a bug specifically affecting private messages in HSQLDB. I'll fix that in the next few days.
|
|

Ah, I missed that about HSQLDB. I meant jforum.log, but the actual SQL is useful, too, because it shows that everything is inserted into the DB correctly.
This site uses JForum 2.6.0, it could be that there was a bug introduced between 2.6.0 and 2.6.2. I'll check it with HSQLDB, and post here what I find.

That's odd. I just sent myself a message here on this site, and it was listed as expected.
Does it work for you on this site?
Are there any messages in the jforum.log file?
Which DB are you using?
|
|
|
Thanks for the heads-up. I'm not sure why those repositories (or jfrog) are listed there. I'll look into whether they can just be deleted, or if any compensatory setup is required.

Indeed, JForum does not interact with AD or LDAP like that. I understand the users already exist in JForum. After you have created the groups, you could add the user-to-group associations directly via
INSERT INTO jforum_user_groups ( user_id, group_id ) VALUES ( ?, ? )
where you'd replace the question marks with the userID and groupID, respectively.
You would find the relevant IDs via
select group_id, group_name from jforum_groups;
select user_id, username from jforum_users;

I consider swooping in and trying to get hold of the domain that has been associated with this project for more than a decade an unfriendly move. That's not the way to build momentum for your project.
