embed forum in a wiki page Posted by Leviticus 30 Apr 2025 20:00 GMT-0000 posts: 17 is there a 'clean' way to embed a forum or forum topic in wiki page, that doesn't involve iFrames etc?
Posted by Gary Cunningham-Lee 05 May 2025 12:15 GMT-0000 posts: 4673 No, I don't think so, not off the shelf anyway. I imagine that would be something like PluginBlogList except for forum posts. Maybe it can be done using PluginList or PluginListExecute but I don't know. I asked in the Matrix chat.
Posted by Jonny Bradley 05 May 2025 13:45 GMT-0000 posts: 126897 Plugin list can display forum posts and filter by forum, topic etc, let's try one... Copy to clipboard{LIST()} {filter type="forum post"} {filter field="parent_object_id" exact="4"} {LIST} Hmm, sadly the index is broken here so i can't test this, but maybe this gives you a clue? The fields you can use to filter and display can be found here: [https://doc.tiki.org/Search+and+List+from+Unified+Index#&filter~wpfancytable1=---x--|Search and List from Unified Index]

Posted by Leviticus 07 May 2025 00:56 GMT-0000 posts: 17 Thanks Jonny, Tried using the LiST filter but could only produce a list of links to first level topic items in a forum, which might be useful, in lieu of a proper embed solution. With a number of LIST's one might be able to 'rebuild' a quasi-forum in a wiki page, but it wont be pretty 😉 Thanks for the help anyway 😊 Hopefully someday as Gary mused, the wiki and forums will operate in greater harmony through a plugin.
Posted by Jonny Bradley 07 May 2025 10:00 GMT-0000 posts: 126897 Aha, you could then use the (fairly) new {sublist} feature to get the contents of the topics, but i guess that's getting a bit advanced for a first outing with plugin list 😬 More here: https://doc.tiki.org/sublist Iframes for now i guess?
