Hi Chris,

It looks like there are a couple of bugs in the new version of thr forums. I've posted one about avatars which seem completely wrong to me. It is on CodePlex here - http://dnnforum.codeplex.com/workitem...

Also there is a seperate one on Display Name which is posted here by someone else - http://dnnforum.codeplex.com/workitem...

Are you using a different version of the module on DNN.com, because it seems to work fine here.

Cheers
Roger

I am going to have to take a look at your two bugs on CodePlex. An FYI, the install here is the same as the release (for now).

Hi Chris,

This looks to be some sort of caching issue. Some of my users details show correctly, some don't. Not sure what is triggering the correct display. I've turned off caching on the module, but it doesn't seem to have solved the problem.

Cheers
Roger

Hi Chris,

I'm doing some more exploring. It looks like the forum configuration is sometimes being returned with a default set of values. I've just being debugging based on the retrieval of SiteAlias in UserInfo.vb. With my configuration (as posted on CodePlex) it should always take the 'else' route since ForumMemberName is set to 1.

Whilst debugging, it isn't always doing this. It took the 'If' route. So I investigated further, and found objConfig to be incorrectly populated. for inatance _AutomatedEmailAddress is showing as 'you@yourdomain.com' whilst in the database it is 'forum@thediving.....'.

This bug would also explain why my avatars are showing incorrectly, since there is a similar dependency on the config. I just haven't debugged that far yet.

The call stack is (in short form):-
  • .ForumUserInfo.get_SiteAlias (158 )
  • .Groups.RenderForum (963)
  • .Groups.RenderForums (511)
  • .Groups.Render (167)
  • .ForumBaseControl.Render (127)
  • [External Code]

Just letting this run... Looks like it will get the config correctly once, then wrong several times, then correct, then wrong several times. Could be the length of time you have it cached for. I just can't track down why it isn' get the config correctly...

Cheers
Roger

Looks like ModuleID is being passed incorrectly (-1) to UserInfo.New when called from PostInfo.get_Author (via ForumUserController.GetForumUser). It is OK from MockSecurity.HasMockModulePermission...

Digging even further this looks like it is getting the ModuleID from the ParentThread. ParentThread is in turn getting it via a call to sproc Forum_Thread_Get which is relating the ContentItemID on the thread to items in the ContentItems table to get the ModuleID. (I've got to say this is very convoluted...)

The problem is the the ContentItemID isn't populated on the Thread (no idea when this should be populated) and the ContentItems table isn't populated with all threads from the forums.

So should the ContentItems table be populated (and the Threads table), and if so, by what?

Cheers
Roger
