Hi all,
My website running fireboard 1.0.4 in Joomla 1.0.15.
I now want to upgrade my website up to Joomla 1.5.x but I don't know how to transfer Fireboard from old Joomla 1.0.15 to new Joomla 1.5.x.
Can any one give me some instruction?
Thank you a lot!

First my suggestion would be to make sure all of your other components, mambots, plugins.. etc work with J1.5.2!
My thought would be to do a simple install component like normal and go through the normal steps but when it gets to the part and ask if you want to do a "Clean Installation" or "Upgrade from Joomlaboard" I would assume you would probably skip that part and do a SQL migration from your other Database.
I maybe wrong as I have not decided to migrate to 1.5.x due to stability issues along with extension support being limited.
Thanks,
James

It's quite simple.
back up tables jos_fb_*
back up configuration file administrator/components/com_fireboard/fireboard_config.php
back up all files uploaded by users (avatars,images,files)
install fireboard on new joomla (System-Legacy plugin must be enabled)
restore uploaded files
restore configuration file
restore tables
But, there are caveats:
if your previous charset wasn't utf-8 you must recode.
admin part of fireboard has numerous bugs, some are non-trivial for a casual admin.
front-end also has some bugs, these are quite simple.
test everything twice! if you are restricting access rights for groups, test it with users in that group (there is also one simple but deep bug).
As you can see on svn, fireboard team is working on fireboard 1.1 They are going to rewrite it 'in joomla 1.5 style' (OO, MVC, ...)

from firebord 1.0.4 to 1.1, it will be a simple upgrade or like for joomla ?
Is there an aproximately date release for 1.1 ?

I think it would be simple, cause of nature of fireboard releases.
It's quite different to do upgrade of CMS or component in CMS, it's like upgrade OS and upgrade application running on the OS.
Is there an aproximately date release for 1.1 ?
I do not know. Ask developers. But I think it's really early to estimate it.
Where did you get this information?
Look at SVN.

Solution for BUG - restricting access rights
/components/com_fireboard/template/default/listcat.php
replace this code on lines 118, 207
| Code: |
$letPass = fb_has_read_permission($obj_fb_cat, $allow_forum, $aro_group->group_id, $acl);
|
with
| Code: |
$j15 = FBTools::isJoomla15();
if ($j15) {
$letPass = fb_has_read_permission($obj_fb_cat, $allow_forum, $aro_group->id, $acl);
} else {
$letPass = fb_has_read_permission($obj_fb_cat, $allow_forum, $aro_group->group_id, $acl);
}
|
Description: Renamed column group_id to id in Joomla 1.5
