Hello Bugo,

We really love your portal and it looks amazing to say the least, we've been testing it for a while and are now transferring it to the live version of our forum, keep up the good work!

We're using your light portal on our SMFforum, but somehow it doesn't show as nicely as it should on mobile, is there maybe a button or option that we might have missed somewhere to turn off certain blocks on mobile?

We also tried and tested the images for SMF Gallery, but somehow it worked on the test version when we were using SMF Gallery, but on the live version it puts the pictures vertically instead of horizontally, even though we set it to have the pictures shown horizontally. On the test version it also did slide while using the SMF Gallery option, while on the live version it just refuses to slide.

For both these issues we've been trying to find answers in the topic, that comes with your mod, but we've had no luck so far. We also tried everything in the portal admin center but we're not able to figure out where we went wrong or what we did wrong, could you please help us?

Thank you so much in advance,

Sincerely,
Team PD

Do you have all the same settings, same database and same mods on the test version of the forum as on the working version? Send screenshots of the display in the mobile version, with normal, and with incorrect examples.

TeamPD

Hello Bugo,

Thanks for the quick reply.

The settings for the portal we've copied one by one from the testversion. The testversion is a clone of the live version, with the only difference being the live version having newer posts on the forum. The testversion was a 1 on 1 copy of the live version, but as mentioned before the live version has newer posts on it, so it's basically the same database but an older one for the testversion. Both have the same modules on them.

We have also tried to export the SMF Gallery block from the testversion to the live version, but it kept doing the same thing on the live version as mentioned in our first post.

We've added some screenshots that were made on mobile and PC. On these screenshots you can see it doesn't look as nicely on mobile as it does on PC.

Thank you so much in advance,

Sincerely,
Team PD

Is the situation the same on the default Curve 2 theme? What theme are you using?

TeamPD

Hello Bugo,
We did test it on curve 2, and othere themes we tested. In the live they all have that issue, that they show vertically instead of horizontally. In the test they all work as supposed.

Bugo

What panel is your GalleryBlock located on?

While developing the GalleryBlock plugin, I added a display with a condition. That is, depending on the panel, images within the block are displayed either horizontally or vertically. There is no manual switch in the block settings. You may have tried changing the position of the blocks in the panel settings, but this only affects the position of the blocks relative to each other, not their content.




In any case, send a link to the page with the problem, I'll try to see how to improve the layout.

Well now, first of all. Sorry for the late reply life was keeping me busy.
What you said here let me think. I uninstalled the portal, and installed it again. This time before adding blocks I made sure i put the blocks that should be horizontally. (I didn't remember if I did it that way the first time and think I first added the blocks.) And now it works the way it is supposed to be. Nice and horizontally like it is supposed to. And that also fixed the lay-out on the mobile version.

Thank you so much for helping to solve this. I have one more question if that is okay. Am I right that I can't add blocks to just 1 specific page on the portal (apart from the main portalpage?) Thats no biggie but now I'm wondering if I'm missing somewhere there to.

Bugo

Just use rule "page=your_page_alias" in display areas field in the block settings.

* Categories and tags can now have their own custom icons.
* Implemented a database upgrade script to allow users to upgrade from versions 2.4+ without having to reinstall the portal.
* Export/import scripts have been updated.
* Updated almost all plugins.
* Updated documentation (including adding a section to view the latest portal updates).
* 3 different portal builds are provided:
  * Standard Edition - the default build
  * Developer Edition - includes a Sass compiler with source sass files, as well as dev scripts folder + Vue source templates + all localizations and plugins (except for bonus ones).
  * Geek Edition - without plugins, but with localizations, where the main file (LightPortal.language.php) is 100% complete. This build is suitable for a quick overview of the portal.

Choose your preferred build:
  * light_portal_2.6.tgz (715 KB)
  * light_portal_2.6_dev_edition.tgz (1625 KB)
  * light_portal_2.6_geek_edition.tgz (407 KB)


How to Upgrade in 2 steps
  1) for all versions - be sure to delete the Sources/LightPortal/Addons directory.
  2a) from versions 2.4.x-2.5.x - simply download the latest version of the portal and click the "Upgrade" button.
  2b) from versions < 2.4.0 - make backups of any data you need, then completely uninstall the portal (removing all portal tables from the database) and then install the latest version. Please note that the minimum required PHP version is 8.0.

Hello Bugo,

Could you please show me how to rename Portal and Forum? Please take a look at the attached image.

Thanks,

Bugo

The quickest way is to use the MainMenu plugin for that.
