Forums Embedded on Different Pages

posts: 27 United States
Is it possible to embed a forum on another page? For example, I would like users to be able to create a Wiki relative to their interests, and then I would like people to be able to discuss the Wiki on the same page that the Wiki or the article is on. Thus, would it be possible to include a forum or discussion section on a page with a Wiki or an article or will I need to redirect users to a forum page?

Yes this is "Discuss pages on forums" I use it on my Knowledge base app. You can find it on the Admin => Wiki pages => features.
Last time I tested (Tiki21) it was working fine. (sorry not able to find the doc)



For a project I "recreate" this feature using a pluginList and search results from the unified-index.
The plugin is used in a wiki page that display an item and at the bottom a forum discussion for this item.
As you can see, using ascii I was able to create title and a title link. I also had to create a format for the forum title with a link and one without a link ("title_sans").

With icon and translation this make it look "a bit heavy" but if you don’t need all that you can end with a light version of this.
Obviously you can do the same using your article "object_id" and other fields (check: https://doc.tiki.org/Search-and-List-from-Unified-Index).
