Re the avatars, it appears to be fixed (it was resizing the smf one)...but a combination of me changing the settings to enforce a correct size and a cache system at work that seemed to refuse to let go of the incorrectly sized image, meant the fault looked to be going on longer than it really was.

Got home, overwrote the file in my SMF profile to put it back to what it was...retried the synch of images and it all seems to have gone well.

Cheers,

Phil

I did some more research into the code, and found what was causing the "hacking attempt" error. I've fixed it, all looks well now. I'm attaching the revised code. Please download and use this instead.

Sorry about the inconvenience!

No need to say sorry...thanks for being so responsive to issue. Yep, that solved the issue on the two plugins that I've decided to use (profile and posts) so thanks heaps!

FYI - for those who asked about the official SMF bridge...

I've run tests in my lab, and it looks like these plugins do indeed fully work with the Official (Ortisio) SMF bridge.

The one test case I have not done is to see if this works in situations where SMF is installed in a different database from Joomla/Mambo. Does CB require that SMF be installed in the same db? I can't recall offhand...

works brilliantly

I had to edit the line

just because our forum isn't in a folder called forum - so if anyone has any probs that might help (obviously change /forum/settings.php to the correct path)

Great catch! I knew there was probably a line or two I'd hardcoded and forgotten about.

In SMF's Settings.php file, there is a variable that stores the forum's absolute pathway. Let me edit the code and drop that in and make sure it works.

Again, thanks for the head's up.

Oh, btw... I've tested the plugins with SMF installed on a separate database (on the same server), and they appear to work normally.
