Would it be possible to introduce a new variable in GLOBALS.php to configure the compiler.inc ROOT (default is index.php):

$cmpl['ROOT'] = 'index.php';


I like to change it to '.' on my site to strip the 'index.php' part from forum URL's.

If it is in GLOBALS.php, external programs would also be able to read the variable to create valid forum URL's.

Given that this option can easily be changed inside compiler.inc I am reluctant to add it to GLOBALS control panel. In my mind it is a rather dangerous option that if mis-configured could easily break the forum and for people who know what they are doing (such as yourself) it is a very easy tweak to make inside compiler.inc.

I agree, changing it is easy. However, 3rd party modules wouldn't know how to format forum URL's.

For example, I've started a Drupal module at http://drupal.org/node/67177
This module needs to know if it should create URL's like
www.site.com/forum/index.php/t/1/2/ or
www.site.com/forum/t/1/2/

How do the two relate, I think I am missing something there.

The module reads FUDforum's GLOBALS.php file to figure out how to behave. However, there is no setting to tell it how to format URLs (the index.php part). Having such a setting would be great. If it cannot be done, I'll have to invent some other strange workaround.

The URL formatting is really complex it is not something that can be configured into GLOBALS.php, you can see the reverse syntax in users.inc.t (big switch statement at the top).

Is there any way to add custom variable[s] to all URL's? The following case doesn't work for an obvious reason:

Quote:

$cmpl['ROOT'] = 'index.php?custom=value';

You can do so by modifying the _rsid and _rsidl constants defined inside users.inc.t
