I'm fairly new to Joomla - so hopefully this isn't too simple.
My client would like to have a separate discussion forums per "Page". For instance, say you user groups Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3 and have Page 1, Page 2, and Page 3. Each Page will have a discussion forum that will only be accessible by the corresponding Group. To handle the permissions I've been using noixACL, and that seems like it will do the job.
My problem is I'm not able to create separate forums with any of the components I've tried yet. The two forum components I've liked are ccBoard and Kunena Forum. If I create a new link for either one it will only create a page that has all the forums and categories listed, I really need to have a link per forum so I could place the link on the separate Pages.
If anyone has any suggestions, or know of any modules that will display only a single forum/category I would appreciate it, thanks.
What if you install say, phpbb and bridge it with joomla with rokbridge.
On phpbb make each forum private and hidden from the other groups, so its only 1 single forum but each group can only see 1 section. so it will be only 1 link but the content will depend on what the group permission has.

Im beginning a new project with Laravel 4 / 5 (done this many times).
I dont want to re-write the wheel setting up admin interfaces and user authentication.
Is it wise to use something like OctoberCMS and pull it part to my own ends?
Why I would do this:
I want extensive CMS functionality
I want a nice user interface
I dont want to code all that!
I have dabbled with the october CMS, and it's really great (as a cms) for someone like a front end dev (rather than say, a generic client who wants to just update content).
A lot of work has been put into the CMS, and to use it effectively you will be extending the October CMS which means doing things the "October way" assuming you want to tie most of your added functionality into some sort of user interface.
If you are ok with learning the ins and outs of October - then it seems like in the long run it will be of benefit.
If you don't go with October - there aren't many alternatives ([packages] which I have come across) which provide a simple foundation and have been updated recently - having said that the core of wardrobe might be something to look into: https://github.com/wardrobecms/core
As for roles/auth - take a look at Entrust (https://github.com/Zizaco/entrust) and Confide - I have used them together in the past and found them functional and easy to use.
(I have no affiliation with any of the packages mentioned above)

There are various way, but for your quick reference:

i need to block the magento website by the visitors country without any extension , how to do it, where i need to edit the code? can i use .htaccess to do this?, else any native supports form the magento ?
please help me.
Thanks in advance
You can try Maxmind's mod_geoip apache module:
http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/mod_geoip2
If you are using WHM/cPanel then it is easy to block entire contry IP ranges from firewall like CSF. For more details how to block entire country in CSF visit following URL:
http://www.vpsdiscussions.com/index.php/topic,87.0.html
I think this one is more accurate:
http://www.ip2location.com/blockvisitorsbycountry.aspx
This one is magento free module:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/et-ip-security.html
I already explained my experience here: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewth/viewthread/469503/
I just think you shouldn't block the whole site, just the prices. You couldn't believe how many people outside the US find us & we can point them to our european or asian partners.
Hope it helps

I am new in joomla 1.5.26 . I am trying to edit some certain articles for registered user but not for all articles. In my current situation all articles are becoming editable. But I want to make some of the articles would be editable.
Please guide me how to do that.
Thanks in advance.
if you want to allow your users to edit only a kind of articles, you need ACL.
Sadly, there is no such thing in Joomla 1.5 (unless you buy a commercial extension), but you can find it natively in Joomla 2.5
It's a very powerful thing, give it a try!
EDIT
If you REALLY need to use joomla 1.5, take a look at this component : it adds the ACL logic inside site. I never tested it, however here you can find more ACL extensions
You can edit any article from admin panel by logging in as Admin. In case you are logging in frontend with admin account then you can edit all articles,any other register user can not edit thees articles, this functionality is available for admin only.

So right now I'm managing a staff of about 30 people working on a school website based off of Joomla 1.5. I am trying to make all of our Joomla articles regarding our sports teams follow the same general template (example). Right now, I'm just having everyone do it individually, which obviously causes quite a few inconsistencies. Ideally I would like to replace the articles in that section with a form (on the backend) that just has input fields for the various information (team name, schedule, roster, coaches, etc.) and then displays it using the template on the frontend. The closet thing I have found is Content Templater, but I'm wondering if there is a better way. Thanks in advance.
instead of using joomla's core article system you can try using a very popular joomla extension K2 http://getk2.org/
It had all the features that are available in joomla content system. In addition to it you can create custom field.
As in your case just create a category sports team, create an extra fields group with files like team name, schedule, roster, coaches and select this field group while creating a category.
Now all the items in that category will show these custom fields where you can enter your data.
It also provide a great template system so that you can create different layouts for different category . See here http://getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/item/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates
