[pmwiki-users] Guestbook not working in my configuration with Per Group Subdirectories

[Patrick Ogay]

I ported the Guestbook to pmwiki 2.x., but I didn't write the code..

At the moment, I install a new wiki installation.
Certainly guestbook, *Forms* and Mailform is a topic for me, but  at the 
moment, I haven't  the time to do a time-consuming troubleshooting, for 
features I don't urgently need .
When I have time, I will have a look at it.

regards
Patrick Ogay
