Quanto segue non è stato completamente sottoposto a test. Si spera che qualcuno ne faccia uso nel prprio forum e ci faccia sapere se funziona! (grazie!)
Avoiding &^%$ Ups
Per amara esperienza ho imparato che è relativamente facile rendere il forum inattivo.
E' capitato anche ad altri!
La ragione generalmente consiste nel fatto che si è cancellato qualcosa non si doveva.
Deleting POSTS does not cause any problems but deleting THREADS may, and deleting Categories can almost certainly lead to disaster.
Have a look in Site Manager » Forum & discussion » Structure
However you have set up your forum you will have a HIDDEN Category
In there is a deleted threads section.
MOVE unwanted Categories to the Hidden section
MOVE unwanted Threads to the deleted section
Oops! too late: The FIX
Look in "List all pages"
There should be the following pages required to have a working Forum
- Forum Categories
- Forum Category
- Forum Thread
- New Forum Thread
- Recent Threads
- Recent Forum Posts
If any of these are missing or corrupt, then they need replacing/re-coding.
Re-create page
Forum Categories.
This should have a page re-created called
forum:start
The title should read
Forum Categories
and the code inside should be
[[module ForumStart]]
[!-- please do not alter this page if you want to keep your forum working --]
Forum Category
This should have a page re-created called
forum:category
The title should read
Forum Category
and the code inside should be
[[module ForumCategory]]
[!-- please do not alter this page if you want to keep your forum working --]
New Forum Thread
This should have a page re-created called
forum:new-thread
The title should read
New Forum Thread
and the code inside should be
[[module ForumNewThread]]
[!-- please do not alter this page if you want to keep your forum working --]
Forum Thread
This should have a page re-created called
forum:thread
The title should read
Forum Thread
and the code inside should be
[[module ForumThread]]
[!-- please do not alter this page if you want to keep your forum working --]
Recent Threads
This should have a page re-created called
forum:recent-threads
The title should read
Recent Threads
and the code inside should be
[[module RecentThreads]]
[!-- please do not alter this page if you want to keep your forum working --]
Recent Forum Posts
This should have a page re-created called

After re- creating the missing pages, your forums should now start to work again……
