Merged Multiple forums on one Joomla

K 1.7.0 is not supported.

meaning?

K 1.7.0 is not supported means exactly that. We do not answer questions relating to installations where K 1.7.0 is installed. If you have a question about Kunena then please ask your question about a supported version of Kunena. The only supported version of Kunena at this time is K 1.7.2, and this also means that you need to be using the Blue Eagle template.

It would also help if you read What information should I include when I ask for help (including how to post my configuration report)? . This additional information may help us to understand what you have done on your site.

[strike]And, I should also add, that I'm not sure if you can select multiple categories to define your separate "forums"; I have my doubts that you can do it.[/strike] You can select multiple categories.

OK.

just upgraded to 1.7.2 + all updates plugins and mods...

problem still relevant.

The problem is that you're having difficulty making a multiple selection of Kunena categories to "define" your separate forums. Is that correct?

Try holding the keyboard CTRL key when you use the left-mouse button to make your selection.

I've looked at your Joomla menu (from the configuration report) and it's very confusing. It would have helped if we could have seen your website but, because your website is hidden behind a firewall somewhere and not on the internet, our advice to you can only be theoretical at best. In other words, there's no guarantee that we can do anything more than suggest a few ideas and it's up to you to see if they work or not. This process of trial-and-error could continue for a long time (unless you could see your way clear to providing us with access to a website somewhere on the internet). See Support for PC-hosted websites (e.g. WAMP, XAMPP) for more on that discussion.

reminds me web tech support: "Please check that the computer is plugged to the power outlet" :laugh:


anyway,

in "Kunena Forum: Category Index" i can't use the "Ctrl" action. but can select sections
in "Kunena Forum: Category" i can't use the "Ctrl" action and can't select sections (only categories)

but in "Kunena Forum: Entry Page" i can select multiple categories with "Ctrl" in the "Allowed Categories" Parameter.

the problem is that in the entry page, no matter what i select in the "Alloed Categories" parameter it's always give me the same result: ALL Categories are visible.


additional questions:

after entering the following link (which is the entry page of the english version of my forum):
http://10.0.0.4/en/forum-en.html?view=entrypage&defaultmenu=177

and setting the forum as i did in my previous post:
www.kunena.org/forum/170-K-17-Templates-...24507?quote=1#124497

i have 2 areas which ignore the "Parent Category ID" trick:
1) the "tree" (or "Bread crumbs" of the forum located below the login fields.
2) the dropdown box that direct to other section/categoris in the forum.

both of them shows ALL the categoris in my forum when the main part of the window shoes only the "section1" categories.
