| It went into the test wiki i made though i did have to unistall the old 2.43 version then install the 2.52 version, the update did not work or timed out after about 15 minutes, no problem it did go in. But on my working wiki, the whole wiki just drops when i do the same there, i am sending you by PM the last entries in my log file, there is a page of these. Is there a reason why i cannot install a fresh 2.52 version on it, then put back in my database?

Howdy 
Thnx for this nice nice update and the fast updating. Looks better and better every time 
I had the same problem with the language file and after 1 hour of drinking tee as hell and trying to find the problem, my problem was the following :
The old language file had this entry on the 2nd line : $awc_lang = array(
The new language file had this entry on the 2nd line : $lang_txt_admin = array(
I just changed this in the new language file (after manually uploading it to LanguageEn.php) and that did it.
Dunno, must be my mistake but maybe this is a try for those who did not solve it.
Much greetings,
Dutchman.

omg, my bad, the file name was named LanguageEn.php instead of LanguageEN.php 
But without the previous solution i posted , i still get errors so it might help other people.
(You can delete 2 postst before this one if you like, they are pointless now  )

Do not do this, it will not work. The changes in the database from forum version to forum version will most likely cause problems.
I read your PM and replied to it.
Hey there Dutchman, long time.
Thanks for posting what you have tried. It never dawned on me to try that being that method of the language system change at version 2.3 
What you have done will work for now (creative, nice thinking), but you will have problems down the road with new language updates, they will never happen.
-- Is there any way for you to send me a User name and password so i can look at your database to see what has happened ? If you do not want to do that, could you export just the 'awc_f_langs' table and send that to me ? Exporting all data in that table.
Aside from the language problem, how is the forum working ?
Looking back into the language problem now, will fix the Edit Buttons here soon.

Hi AWC,
yeah long time no see, i was kinda offline since a few months and still waiting for a broadband connection (3 March i will get it). I am now on 56k modem Back to the roots, reminds me of my first 300k modem in the 80's 
Since i don't have SQL access cause i am not familiar with that kinda stuff nor do i have mysqladmin installed to get access to it.
would it be enough to just send the plain mysql file awc_f_langs.MYD ?
I could just put in on my server.
If this is not enough or the format is crappy, just tell me the commands how i can export files under linux / mysql
(I know how to access mysql on linux but thats it *sigh* - not how to export data though).
The forum is doing real fine, i just love it , great new functions. A few years i was used to xmb cause it was so slick and clean and since i am using mediawiki , this is the best extension available, and superb supported :-)
Much greetings,
Dutchman.

Ups, damn your too fast.
I turned it off cause it was sitting on top of my main menu but it was working.
But when it could be placeable and setup wich menu entries it has to show or not, then i would use that function for sure

In time. As far as i can see the forum menu can only be placed in two spots (top or bottom) with out editing skin files (which i would rather not do), also i would like to get some forum options in the Wiki's-User-Preferences so the user can pick and choose whats being displayed, but that will come in time also.
If you want to hack it up look in the /awc/forums/awc_forum.php around lines 169-239 and you will see the code for the menu. The placment code is $sidebar = $sidebar. $current_sidebar; which places it on top, if you want to place it on the bottom you would just flip the code around $sidebar = $current_sidebar . $sidebar ;
If you could PM that .MYD it would help.
thanks.

Ok sir,
i posted you a downloadlink from the server. I hope it will help you further.
Btw. Thanks for the tip about the sidebar (I am used to just enter in the searchbox : mediawiki:sidebar to edit the sidebar.
(mhmm, i could also post the direct links in the sidebar when just editing the sidebar like i explained above...mhmm,mhmmm this will be a long night  )
Much greetings,
Dutchman.

Dont think the mediawiki:sidebar will work, completely.
There is some "check" code in the awc_forum.php file to see if the user is logged in or not, dont think you can do things like that in the mediawiki:sidebar area (could be wrong), im sure you will figure something out

You can make it so edit the file
extensions/awc/forums/awc_forum.php
Replace
Line 224
$sidebar = $sidebar. $current_sidebar;
with
$sidebar = $current_sidebar. $sidebar;

download is at bottom of page
http://wiki.anotherwebcom.com/index.php5?title=Current_Forum_Beta_Release&diff=5321&am...
Working on the forums and categories - wiki permission (getting rid of the current permissions, all permissions will work off wiki groups and the forums groups in the /config/prem.php file)
Still have a long way to go with this.
The admin section is close to being done (creating new and editing), next will be to get the forum to check the permissions correctly and function off the new system.
Category screen
Forums Screen - forums will have two permissions, reading and writing (writing = posting)

AWC, your work so far has been awesome, and I'm looking forward to the new permissions setup. That will be incredibly useful for my site. This transition into 2.5 has been amazing and the incredible changes you've made have improved this already excellent extension.
With the latest updates, I do have a weird bug, that seems to be isolated to our main page. You'll notice the menu (on the bottom) has gone insane. It repeats a number of times.
Keep in mind I haven't yet checked over my tables and suchlike on the main page... But it's enough of an issue that I'd almost rather hand-add my own menu for forums rather than use this one just because of the main page issues.

| I stand corrected, the Forum Menu acts funny all over the place. Just in different ways.
