Hello, I'm trying OG Forums but it seems that the themes and languages are not preserved. Any help?

PS: I installed it but I forgot to change OG module, so I changed it, still the same... I uninstalled OG_Forum (og_term on database was deleted but there was an error, so I think the variables were not) That killed my Forum module so I uninstalled it and installed again, and then OO_forum and there were no changes. I just tell this here because it's related. I'll post the uninstalling issue on other issue, so please don't discuss that here. Thanks!

Ok, I don't know if OG Forum is using Views, but I've found something that maybe will help. As I created Views for my groups I just found that passing gid as argument does exactly the same, they just use the theme and language of the main website. I then used nid and everything worked good. So maybe it has something to do with that...

Ok, I just resolved it. og.module needs to be patched. Just add this code at the end of "function og_determine_context() {":

elseif (arg(0) == 'forum' && is_numeric(arg(1))) {
$nid = db_result(db_query('SELECT nid FROM {og_term} WHERE tid = %d', arg(1)));
$group_node = og_set_theme($nid);
}

Maybe there is a better solution but this is working. Now Forums use the themes and languages from their Groups.

I quote from the issue submission guidelines for this project:

Many of the OG related modules are actually not well written or try to do too much and thus will subtly break OG. Before you report an issue in to this OG project, make sure you can reproduce the problem without any of those add-on modules installed. If you have issues with one of those modules, please file tickets in its own issue queue - not this one.

The issue is not an OG one, or at least I don't think so. It happens the same with Views and maybe it's a problem with OG, but I think it's more the way the context is defined by OG_Forum. It would be nice if someone tell us if they have also this bug (I cannot believe I'm the only one with D6, OG, OG_forum and different themes and languages)

What I posted was just a "dirty" solution. But before reassigning to OG we should check if this problem occurs because of OG_Forum first.

I observed and fixed the following problem ..

If you create a group with a none default theme and then navigate to "Group Forums" the default theme is again rendered.

I'll get that fix committed and released in the next development release today / tomorrow

Thanks Paul

Just use different languages for each Group. You have to include an additional language into Drupal and then you'll be able to select it for a group.
You'll need to activate Locale and Content Translation optional core modules. Then just add a language in "Site configuration>Languages".You don't really need to download and install any translation, but to check if it works you should. Just decompress any Translation in your drupal root, and then add the language. Then all the translations will be imported automatically.

I hope you can find a solution. Thank you

Hey Paul, had you time to look at it? If you could release the fix or tell us if the cvs version is fixed it would be really good. Thanks!

The language context is now retained as you navigate around a group . These changes will be released in a development version later today.

There are however no translations for the OG Forum itself at this time.

Hey Paul, if you are going to look the language issue, make sure you consider that there are 4 things working there: (Drupal checks them on this order, following always the first one found)
-The language selected to view the content
-The default language of the user
-The default language of the group
-The default language of the site

PS: I'm not sure if this would make sense to you, sorry. I find a bit difficult to explain how multilanguage work in Drupal.
