alright. the problems described above are not my only ones (i just thought this is not the right place to ask for it, but now i'll try it anyway)>
*is there a way to "hide" a forum from public? eg it should just not show up in board index etc. of the forums, but it should be able of being called by something like viewtopic.php?f=XX&t=XX
*is it possible to only display specific forums in the board index etc. depending on the current displayed language?
and i did a little research on this.
*mad_cat already requested something like this two months ago
here
as i described above, i'd love something like this too.
*and there was something about switching the language
here
this is kind of what i want, yet they tell there with one of the code changes there its possible to use ?language=XX but i don't see how that should work. php get 'language' is no where defined, is it? i always thought this feature must be available on a standard installtion. still hoping that phpbb3 does not only call the language from the database. also the imageset is as important as the language file itself.
*so i also found a request for a auto detect language bot
here
also not answered.
so i see this language thing is a problem here. maybe it involves a lot of code changes. maybe not. as of now, i want to use phpbb3 as my form (really great forum). and i'm familiar with php as well as mysql, but not with phpbb3 / its code (just got a rough idea).
if someone could help me getting started with what i want to do or even someone that would help me, or know someone that would help me doing that... i need to know what functions, dbtables etc. would be best to alter for all that.
someone out there, who is familiar with phpbb3 and get me started? someone willing to walk through that with me? and maybe (if it's nessessary) a moderator that'd move this topic to an appropirate forum?
countin' on ya guys!
