it's a great feature, could I turn off auto complete for the line where we enter the messages?

Thanks.

I think auto-complete is a feature of your browser.

It is but it is possible to turn it off with html autocomplete="off"

Could you tell me where I would edit the code to do that.

Many thanks.

Is there away to only show the shoutbox on one individual thread? I suspect it is through the custom display option but I could not figure it out.

Thanks in advance.

The blocks on the side don't line up with the top of the forum, they are always too high, screen cap attached.

@simon36 -- good one!  I just read and found out that this is standard in HTML5. That's new to me!

The block title bars don't line up with the title on your forum because there is stuff before the forum title bar.
There is also one <br /> emitted in the block template right before the "central area" of the page, where the forum is located.
Are you interested in this one <br />?

Hi Angelina, sorry I'm not quite sure what you mean. Should I add another br statement to the html to line it up? It's only the left and right block that are not quite level with the top.

Thanks for your help.

Adding a <br> statement will not line up the title bars.
They are at different heights because of the text ABOVE the title bar in the forum listing.

You can see exactly the same kind of thing at

It would take some jiggering.  I assume you'd want to do that in Portal.template.php, or else in portal.css.
I don't think you could count on it always lining up perfectly in every browser, at every size, because the problem is, in the board index, you've got some text before the title bar, but in the left-side block, you do not.

What is the blank bar at the top of that link that makes the blocks line up? Could you tell me how to do that instead of altering the code.

Thanks.

It's at the top of this url

http://simpleportal.net/index.php?board=11.0

I am guessing you have your AD BLOCKER software turned on.  Turn it off and look at that page.  That "blank bar" is where an ad is served up to those folks who are still living in the year 2001 without ad blocking software.

That click-through revenue is important. SimplePortal runs at a loss.

But that's OT.  You cannot count on blocks being just the right size to make title bars line up.  You'd need some way to make them line up, and the templates have not been written that way.

Thank you, is that something that could be considered for a future version? Make the top blocks line up with the top of the message list?
