Yeah, same here. Mine was alread set for 'post'. The problem only exists in my subblack3dblue and subblack3dorange forum themes. All other themes and their forums work fine when using the jumpbox. I checked and both the problem forums say 'post'. If the author of the forum themes could shed some light on this, it would be great. I really like those two forum layouts.

Im having the same problem my files say post already and im using subBlack3dBlue. Mine just seem to refresh the current page its on instead of jumping to any other forum chosen.

Hi.. to all you guys that that have the "get" / "post" issue not fixing your problem..

I have a more comprehencive workaround
locate your functions.php in /includes/ dir

Locate on line 130 where it says: function make_jumpbox($action, $match_forum_id = 0)

Scroll a blitt further to about line 220 where you'll fine:

Code:

$template->set_filenames(array(
'jumpbox' => 'jumpbox.tpl')
);

Just before this, add these lines:

Code:

// aCe2k hack to fix jumpbox
if ($action == "viewforum.$phpEx") {
$aCeURL = str_replace("?", "&", $action); // As we are already in nuke, change the ? to &
$aCeURL = str_replace(".php", "", $aCeURL);
$aCe2kBoxFix = "Forums"; //Edit to make name=Forums
$aCe2kBoxFixer = "$aCeURL"; //Edit to make file=$url
}
// aCe2k hack END

$template->set_filenames(array(
'jumpbox' => 'jumpbox.tpl')
);

Further more, we need to parce this info right...
so open you jumpbox.tpl inside your phpBB's templates/<theme>/ dir...
Now MAKE A BACKUP! and past this in the original file:

Code:

<form method="post"
   name="jumpbox"
   onSubmit="if(document.jumpbox.f.value == -1){return false;}"
>
<input type="hidden"
name="name"
value="{S_JUMPBOX_ACE_NAME}"
>
<input type="hidden"
name="file"
value="{S_JUMPBIX_ACE_FILE}"
>

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td nowrap="nowrap">
   <span class="gensmall">{L_JUMP_TO}:
{S_JUMPBOX_SELECT}
   <input type="submit" value="{L_GO}" class="liteoption" />
   </span>{S_HIDDEN_FIELDS}
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

This code made things work for me.
Private forums not show'n, but public does.
But there's more to do here...

Coz when your reading a thread, jumpbox automaticly selects the Topic your in, but when your reading on the Topic's page, it doesn't auto select or even print the BBS's frontpage..
Maybe som code guru can fix this?? It would mean a functions.php hack, but i just havn't got the time to learn what is, and what's not possible with nuke and phpbb, and what's stored in db and what's not.

For you out there that have the Hiarchive mod,.. donno if it'll work.. you try.. Backup and past new code and we find out soon enough Smile

I've allso located a minor html-bug in this part of the code..
In my file, it's located on line 182 and it looks like this:

Code:

$selected = ( $forum_rows[$j]['forum_id'] == $match_forum_id ) ? 'SELECTED' : '';

edit it to look like this, and you now have a better html rendered page.

Code:

$selected = ( $forum_rows[$j]['forum_id'] == $match_forum_id ) ? ' SELECTED' : '';

see the little space i've added just before SELECTED ?

That's it really Smile

I will certainly try the code editing and see if mine will work. Thanks for all your hours spent on this stuff. THANKS. People should be awarded hard currency for doing stuff like this. You will certainly be rewarded in a future time, no doubt.

Well. Instead of making another topic for this problem that I am facing with, I am going to use this threat to find a fix for my problem.

Now, on the "Jump to forum" every time that I try to jump to another Forum I get this: "Sorry, such file doesn't exist..."

Any help would be great.

Sorry if I made a post again. I just wanted to let every one know about this little problem this morning again, since last night no one reply to my problem. Thanks for your help.

P.S.- I will edit this post as soon someone helps me out.

Nikko.

OK so I located my jumpbox.tpl file but where should I ftp it?....I have a seperate template for my forums. Just in the fiblack3d main folder directory?

All that is in the folder is an Images folder, and a fiblack3d.css file.
