forumbundle's Issues

PHP error during subject creation

I have the following error when I create a subject of a forum.

Catchable fatal error: Argument 2 passed to Claroline\ForumBundle\Manager\Manager::createMessage() must be an instance of Claroline\ForumBundle\Entity\Subject, none given, called in /var/www/html/claroline/20140618/Claroline/vendor/claroline/forum-bundle/Claroline/ForumBundle/Controller/ForumController.php on line 233 and defined in /var/www/html/claroline/20140618/Claroline/vendor/claroline/forum-bundle/Claroline/ForumBundle/Manager/Manager.php on line 190

It's on a standard installation drom GitHub done on the 18/06/2014

Change the "Pin" icon to a pin instead of a paperclip

When you pin a "Subject" to the top of the page, the icon is a paperclip.
The icon not only suggests an "Attached file" but allso reminds me of one of the worst avatars in the history of computing : Microsoft clippy

The icon should be a standard pin/tack.

Something along the lines of :

I am not sure if we have a gliphicon/fontawsome icon that would fit at our disposal.

Post in Forum, error 500

When you execute this scénario each user we will post in the forum get an error 500.

Create a user, this user post a message on a forum dans subscribe to get the notification. Delete the user. With another user post a message on the same forum. At this time the user will get an error 500 dans the screen is not updated.

The problem is that the reference of the delete user is not delete from the table forum_notification

Improvement : Forum "Answer" button

Maybe i misunderstood but, as a manager, i have answer button on each reply for a discussion. But any answer button i choose, the resulting reply is posted at the bottom (last) of the discussion.

• If the multiple answer button are meant to answer a specific reply, then maybe it should be displayed exactly under it (graphically with an offset maybe)
• If not, a single answer button should be enough

For now, there is no difference between the unique atthe bottom "quick answer" button and the many "Answer button".

Twig variable issue when in dev

I found two issue with twig variable.
Here we are:

• Variable "subject" does not exist in views/Forum/categoryForm.html.twig at line 9
• Method "getName" for object "Claroline\ForumBundle\Entity\Subject" does not exist in views/Forum/moveSubjectForm.html.twig at line 19

Improvement : search in category

The search bar is visible in category list mode, but not in a category. It could be useful to search only in that category (until a real filter or facet search is available).

small enhancements for message count

i have posted a message on claroline forum , then someone responded and i responded back and i saw that :

• on forum level (list of forum): it was displayed "3 messages", where in fact it should be 1 message (the responses should not be included)
• on a message level : it is displayed "3 responses" where in fact it should be 2 (the initial message should not be considered as a response)

thank you

Search - response list

When you realise a search from the first page of the forum, the response list doesn't encode HTML content :

Checking existence of data before inserting it

Before adding a widget in the additional installer you must check if data already exist or not.

I already have the formu widget in my database and so the update crash.
And as long as there are no error management in update process we cannot afford an issue in that process.

Bug : string not translated in

I've seen this ACTION string untranslated in /workspaces/XX/open/tool/logs
log_resource-claroline_forum-read_subject_sentence
log_resource-claroline_forum-read_subject_shortname
log_resource-claroline_forum-read_subject_title

maybe there are more ...

Enhancement for mail notification

Is it possible to add the notification button at the category level.
If a user chose the notification at the top level of the forum, the notification is activated for all categories. Afterwards a user can activate/deactivate the notification for each category.

Service injection error

After made a composer update on dev server I've got this issue:

[Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Exception\ScopeWideningInjectionException]                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
  Scope Widening Injection detected: The definition "claroline.manager.forum_manager" references the service "claroline.manager.mail_manager" which belongs to a narrower scope. Generally, it is safer to either move "claroline.manager.forum_manager" to scope "request" or alternatively rely on the provider pattern by injecting the container itself, and requesting the service "claroline.manager.mail_manager" each time it is needed. In rare, special cases however that might not be necessary, then you can set the reference to strict=false to get rid of this error.  

Don't know why.
