    Wrapper to include the link url

    Posted 16 years 2 months ago
    • I am using wrapper to link to a forum that I use on another site. The problem I have is I need the urls to show to the different pages on the linked forum. Otherwise you cant see where the url is taking you on all the different pages.

      Is there a way for the urls to show instead of just wrapper.html

      The forum is vbulletin 3.7.0 and I am using Joomla 1.5.9. Is there another solution?

      Thanks

    • hi,

      if you are using wrapper, your forum is wrapped inside the iframe, and as far as I know it's impossible the make the urls to show to different pages on the linked forum.

      the best solution is, avoid using wrapper, and customize your vbulletin template to match your joomla template

    • I've looked into this a good bit...before the Rockettheme phpBB3 templates were available...and it turns out that it's very complicated to do. Not just that, but the way it has to be done ends up marking your site as a spam or phishing site because the urls are being masked.

      In general, iframes are recommended for very few applications.

      Your best bet is to make a template for vbulletin that matches your Joomla site. I've done this before for several different systems and would have to think that the same pattern would work for vbulletin as well:
      http://www.rockettheme.com/forum/index.php?f=30&t=35438&rb_v=viewtopic

      I also noticed this, but it's only good for Joomla 1.0
