  • Ninjaboard 1.2 nightly builds available

    The first alpha build of 1.2 is now available on our beta channel!

    No builds from the beta channel is recommended for production sites. Please don't install this on live sites, it's very unstable and we don't expect it to be usable until beta status.

    We're currently refactoring our codebase to not only use Nooku Framework Alpha 3 (Ninjaboard 1.1 is on Alpha 2, and the differences between the two is like Joomla 1.5 vs 1.6), but also to work on Joomla 1.6, 1.7 and on Nooku Server.

    Wait, this is a Nooku extension, shouldn't it work out of the box with all of these platforms especially Nooku Server?

    Ninjaboard have been able to run on Nooku Server all along as long as the Nooku Server shipped with the same revision of Nooku Framework as Ninjaboard.
    Nooku Server got a lot of new innovations in terms of what we can do in the administrator UI using CSS3 flex layouts and more, and we intend to take full advantage of those.

    For Joomla 1.6 and onwards, we need to update our MooTools javascript to work on MooTools 1.3, and we need to upgrade our ACL code to work with the new data model in Joomla 1.6+.

    This build of Ninjaboard 1.2 focused on making the installer and built in updater work seamlessly on these 3 new platforms. So you can install it, and use the dashboard "Check for Updates…" button for updating to the latest nightly build.

    Other than that, the code in 1.2 is extremely "work in progress" right now, so very little of the overall functionality of Ninjaboard is working.

    Since 1.2 is expected to be very unstable during the alpha stages we'd like to ask everyone to wait with testing for bugs until we reach beta.

    We have exciting news to share today, about what’s coming and what’s happening!

  • Unofficial Ninjaboard guide released

    Ninjaboard is a very young extension. It's a forum system built from scratch that only turned stable at the beginning of this year.

    Ever since we started coding it we've given the feedback we've got from the community the attention it deserves.

    And we are constantly working hard to make Ninjaboard work as intuitively as possible.
    But in the midst of all this work there is one thing we haven't been able to do yet, and that is proper documentation and "getting started"-like tutorials.

    However thanks to Steven Zeegers there's now an guide that will help you get up and running in mere minutes! Get it here.

    Great work Steven, and thank you for sharing!

  • How to Override NinjaBoard HTML, JS, CSS, and Images

    ninjaboard-override-article-pic

    This article gives a brief introduction on layout overrides, and explains the additional assets overrides support found in Ninjaboard.

    All Joomla! 1.5 native components and modules supports something called template layout overrides.

    Template layout overrides allow you to copy the files that generate the HTML in a component, into your template. The component will then use the files found in your template instead of its own.

  • Apologies To Our Members, iContact Got Hacked

    About a week ago one of our members came to us and reported that he was suddenly getting spammed on an account that he had only ever used for our site.

    We started doing some looking but as it was "only one" we figured that it was most likely something on their end.

    Then the second one came in. And another.
