TF Forum
September 12, 2021

Installed an Joomla 4 instance to start a website. Installed your plugin and I have some issues. From all the required pages the one containing all the topics works as it should. When I click to add my first topic I get the message: "You don't have permission to access this. Please contact a website administrator if this is incorrect." although I am logged in on the frontend with the admin user. The page containing users list gives me this error: "1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 3" I don't know what could go wrong.

For creating new topic, check access settings in component configuration. New Topic -> Access

Also, in the menu item for list all topics, you need to select Menu Item for New Topic.

For users list, please check if error is still showing after removing all user fields and custom fields.

Fiddled with the settings and now all the forum pages are working except 2 things. Users page shows a list of all the registered users with no link on them or something like that. After I submit a forum topic or a reply I get this instead of the submitted topic/reply page.

In the TF Forum -> Create Topic Menu, in the options you can set custom redirect where users will be redirected to after submitting the new topic.

Similarly, in the component options, under Topic options, you can set Reply redirect URL where users will be redirected to after posting the reply.

Currently, the component does not have feature for single user profile pages.

Oh, I see it's not a bug. In that case, I guess, I can't add in that fields for example the topic link that the reply was made to. About users what is probably missing for the plugin to be awesome is an option to at least select a profile URL from a third party plugin. And quote/reply links on topics. I don't think I've seen something like that in the settings :)

Thank you for the feedback. We will be adding Quote feature and user profile pages very soon. Also, coming optional functionality to add labels on the front-end.
