joomla's wrapper Options

[steve smith]

i have tng and joomla working great, but i have a question. when ever i go to tng through joomla, it opens up in the joomla wrapper. how do i pull it out, of joomla wrapper????
i've tried everything the joomla site said to do to pull fireboard out of the wrapper, i'm still working on that also. i figure one will solve the other..

Assuming you are using the TNG-Bridge? If not and you are wrapping tng through joomla itself, one of the joomla switches should unwrap the program. This may be something you have to ask on the joomla boards if this is the case. Sorry if this does not help.

If you want it to break out of joomla go to the tng.php file found in joomla/components/com_tng/

and edit the file.

Scroll down towards the bottom and look for the line:

CODE

//header("Location: ". $scripturl,true);

uncomment it so it reads:

CODE

header("Location: ". $scripturl,true);

The go a few lines further down and add // to the beginnin of this line:

CODE

echo "<iframe src='$scripturl' onload='iFrameHeight()' id='blockrandom' align='top' width='100%' height='100%'

so it reads:

CODE

//echo "<iframe src='$scripturl' onload='iFrameHeight()' id='blockrandom' align='top' width='100%' height='100%'

ps. Use an appropriate editor. do not use windows notepad or word or any other windows text editors. They will probably break the file as they add spaces into the text. I personally use PSPad editor. It's free. There are other good editors as well out there.

Hi

I hope my memory serves me well as this was one which eluded me many times.

Make a copy of the Url for the Fireboard component.

Then at the backend (Administrator) go to

Menu Item manger > Forum (or your title for it) > edit > Change "type" to External Link. Then in the Link box insert the copy of the Url you had made.

I hope this works for you.
