i success seperate each add-on's route in subdomain

[marioman]

hi,

i have forum in this path

http://www.example.com/forum

download system ( i wrote it with cart using ajax) in this path

http://www.example.com/software
route:software

books library

http://www.example.com/books
route:books

and so on

let's begin

[First]
make forum in supdomain from cpanel
http://forum.example.com/
Document Root /public_html/forum

in config file insert this

$config['cookie'] = array(
    'prefix' => 'example_',
    'path' => '/',
    'domain' => '.example.com'
);

done

[second]
edit file library/XenForo/router.php

after

$routePath = $this->getRoutePath($request);

add this

if(defined('MY_INDEX'))
        {
            $routePath = MY_INDEX . '/' . $routePath;
        }

[third]
created new folder called software in /public_html/software
from cpanel create subdomain for this folder

http://software.example.com/
Document Root /public_html/software

inside software folder create index.php with this content

//path to xenforo index.php
$path = '/home/example/public_html/forum/index.php';
 
//constant we used it in listener
define('MY_INDEX', 'software');
include($path);

then copy your .htaccess to this folder

now when you open
http://software.example.com/
it will display http://forum.example.com/software but we get style (css & js ) not working because base dir

[fourth]
in PAGE_CONTAINER template change

<base href="[COLOR=#ff0000]{$xenOptions.boardUrl}[/COLOR]" />
        <script><xen:comment>/* Chrome bug and for Google cache */</xen:comment>
            var _b = document.getElementsByTagName('base')[0], _bH = "{xen:jsescape [COLOR=#ff0000]{$xenOptions.boardUrl}[/COLOR]}";
            if (_b && _b.href != _bH) _b.href = _bH;
        </script>

and in boardUrl option put your new forum link
http://forum.example.com

or you can modify this from Listener Template by preg_replace in $contents

 

[marioman]

you can make portal in index using same method

portal
http://www.example.com

forum
http://forum.example.com

download
http://software.example.com

wiki
http://wiki.example.com

just index.php page with 3 lines

 

[marioman]

forget something important

your route software should be get link from your route in all time
from ACP edit your route prefix and make it

Use class to build link: Always

inside your router class Dev_Route_Prefix_Software
make all returned links from function match in full text

 

[marioman]

what if you don't need to change any thing inside router.php ?
there are long way to do that

let's begin

[First]

in you index.php inside folder software don't add old codes but add that code

$startTime = microtime(true);
$fileDir = 'home/example/public_html/forum';
define('MY_INDEX', 'software');
 
require($fileDir . '/library/XenForo/Autoloader.php');
XenForo_Autoloader::getInstance()->setupAutoloader($fileDir . '/library');
 
XenForo_Application::initialize($fileDir . '/library', $fileDir);
XenForo_Application::set('page_start_time', $startTime);
 
$fc = new XenForo_FrontController(new Dev_Dependencies_Public());
$fc->run();

which Dev here mean your add on folder
this code same inside xenforo index page with Dependencies_Public changed to get from our class

[second]
in your addon folder Dev
create Dependencies folder contain Public.php

with that code

class Dev_Dependencies_Public extends XenForo_Dependencies_Public
{
    /**
    * Routes the request.
    *
    * @see Overwrite XenForo_Dependencies_Abstract::route()
    */
    public function route(Zend_Controller_Request_Http $request)
    {
        $router = new Dev_Router();
        $router->addRule(new XenForo_Route_ResponseSuffix(), 'ResponseSuffix')
              ->addRule(new XenForo_Route_Prefix('public'), 'Prefix');
 
        return $router->match($request);
    }
}

[Third]
inside Dev folder create Router.php file with that contents

class Dev_Router extends XenForo_Router
{
    public function getRoutePath(Zend_Controller_Request_Http $request)
    {
        return MY_INDEX . '/' . parent::getRoutePath($request);
    }
}

i hope this lesson useful to you

 

[marioman]

you will get problem with js using this lesson
that's because xenforo using css in php file css.php
$.ajax can't get css from outside php files (if it text it will work)

so we can make css.php inside how ?

let's begin

[First]
copy contents for css.php inside forum to software and do this changes

$startTime = microtime(true);
$fileDir = '/home/example/public_html/forum';
define('MY_INDEX', 'software');
 
require($fileDir . '/library/XenForo/Autoloader.php');
XenForo_Autoloader::getInstance()->setupAutoloader($fileDir . '/library');
 
XenForo_Application::initialize($fileDir . '/library', $fileDir);
XenForo_Application::set('page_start_time', $startTime);
 
XenForo_CssOutput::run();

[Second]

in your class Dev_Dependencies_Public ( in post #4 here )
put this function

public function createTemplateObject($templateName, array $params = array())
    {
 
        if ($params)
        {
            $params = XenForo_Application::mapMerge($this->_defaultTemplateParams, $params);
        }
        else
        {
            $params = $this->_defaultTemplateParams;
        }
       
        return new Dev_Template_Public($templateName, $params);
    }

[Third]

create Dev_Template_Public class ( dev/template/Public.php)
with this content

class Dev_Template_Public extends XenForo_Template_Public
{
    public function getRequiredCssUrl(array $requirements)
    {
        $url = parent::getRequiredCssUrl($requirements);
 
        //option in you Dev addon contain full link in this example http://software.example.com
        $option = MY_INDEX . 'FullLink';
        $url = XenForo_Application::get('options')->$option . '/' . $url;
        return $url;
    }
}

now css will com from your sub domain link (http://software.example.com/css.php?bla)
and ajax will work successfully
