SimplePortal

Hi @ll,

i am using SimpelPortal v.1.2 for some time now, and i have some strange errors in the errorlog.

For each user online at that time the following error message appears a few times in a row:

http://myhomepage/myforum/index.php 
8: Undefined index: 180
Datei: /var/www/forum/Sources/SPortal.php
Zeile: 585

and after that it shows this message .. also a few times

http://myhomepage/myforum/index.php 
8: Undefined index: 180
Datei: /var/www/forum/Sources/SPortal.php
Zeile: 484

I have looked into the code and found out that this has something to do with the show recent posts and show recent topics functions of the portal.
I couldnt reproduce the error .. usually it shows up every couple of days.

Would be nice if sbdy could help me with this.

It's likely that this error was fixed within the SimplePortal 2.0.x releases. Your best bet really would be to upgrade it, as the 2.x line includes some new features that you might find useful. And it would assist us with your support, instead of having to research and review such an old version.

Installed, no errors, but code at the top of the page. Found the answer to that problem within the forums here.

I am having the same problem with the code at the top. What is the answer you found to remedy this problem? Anyone?

this is what its showing at the top of my forum after I install.

Open your /Themes/default/Languages/Modifications.english.php file and ensure that the ?> is at the end of the file on its own line. If not, move it there.

@pradius,
Refer to this post:

@Stock,
As I already said in the other topic. Adding blocks throughout the forum, is something which the Simple Portal Dev team is working on for a later version.

@runebergen and asudhakar,
A system is being developed which should allow people to add their own blocks and blocks made by other people more easily, so your block may be left until we have completed that feature, and then people will be able to easily make/add their own blocks. Thank you for developing the block though.

Hi, SiNaN.

Thanks for a great Mod. 

I'm getting an error maybe someone here could help me with. I don't know much at all about php or databases... or computers.  I just know that I get one of these in my error logs everytime someone opens sportal at my site.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Can anyone help with this? I'm using the latest version of Sportal and SMF 1.1.5

That fixed it alright! Thanks much!

Now onto my final beef with this mod. I don't want your name and link at the bottom of my forum Mr SiNaN, you sneaky little so and so. SMF's copyright is more then enough without throwing your little link of love under it. Does anyone know how to remove this link from under the copyright? Thanks.

[Nibogo]

what`s is new in the 2.0.4 version?

[Nathaniel]

@CaptJack,
This may be an issue with the smf arcade block, do you have an SMF arcade block and does the error stop if you remove the block?

@pradius,
You have noticed that this mod has a copyright link down the bottom of your page, this copyright is not easily removable without removing entire the SMF copyright, because we don't want you to remove it. While this may/may not change in the future, at the moment this mod has a copyright link attached to it, and you are not meant to remove it. I will discuss this with Sinan but at the moment, you cannot remove it unless you have good php skills.

@NIBOGO,
Permissions and a few bug-fixes.

SMF Mods are more that allowed to stick a copyright on your forum. Even TinyPortal does this. But maybe we could move it just to the portal page for the next version.

Anyways, you won't be getting assistance to remove it in this support thread. Sorry, just not going to happen.

Removing the SMF copyright and/or the SP copyright will void licenses. As mods are third-party software, we have the right to copyright our material. Removing such rights can result in legal action on your part.

[PRaDiUS]

Alrighty, I'll just remove the mod all together. I don't need it that bad. That link makes my page look tacky and unprofessional. Thanks anyway. 

[[SiNaN]]

With 2.0.4 version all the know bugs -including the ones reported until this post was made- are all fixed. We suggest you all to update your mod.

pradius, thanks for trying the mod.

[Eliana Tamerin]

We now celebrate the release of SimplePortal 2.0.4. Yep, the release of 2.0.3 was quickly proceeded by the next version, that we didn't even have time to announce it!

The package includes an update if you're still using SimplePortal 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, or 2.0.3. Remember, if you're still using SimplePortal 1.x, you will need to uninstall that package before installing the 2.0.4 package.

In this release, we have a great number of bug fixes. Here they are:
! Left and Right block side width settings
! All block position comment typos
! Load.php portal theme bug
! SSI copyright bug
! Recent Topics width in IE
! Recent Posts width in IE
! Recent Topics icon
! Recent Posts icon
! Board News icon
! Articles block XHTML error
! User info function Karma type
! 3 SP Admin template bugs
! BoardIndex category bug
! Recent category bug
! Member Color Link bugs
! Arcade function foreach check
! MessageIcon check fix
+ Always load SPortal language
+ Block permissions
+ Force block field (not feature)
* Language strings removed in block call

[C.Jack]

I just installed 2.0.4 and got this error:

Unknown column 'force_view' in 'field list'
File: /home/therapto/public_html/raptorpoker/forum/Sources/Subs-SPortal.php
Line: 37

[[SiNaN]]

You installed or updated?

Okay, I got the error. Probably you uninstalled the earlier version, then installed the new.

So because of old table being there, it didn't create the new table.

Do you want to use your old blocks again or that isn't a problem for you to loosing them?

[C.Jack]

I don't mind losing the old blocks. I was only using the original ones anyway. 
However, I don't know how to replace them. 

[[SiNaN]]

Anyway, we won't loose them. Copy the attached file to your forum root (where index.php is) then go to this adress from your browser: http://yoursite.com/upgrade02.php

When it says "Done!", then remove the file; your portal will be okay.

[C.Jack]

Thanks, SiNaN !!! 

It's working great, and my "Invalid argument supplied for foreach()" error is fixed as well. 

Now, if I can only get my avatars fixed.... LOL. 

Thanks again. I really like this portal.

[[SiNaN]]

Glad you solved and liked it. If you are having a problem about not a mod, but forum; you can start a topic in 1.x Support Board.

Thanks for this updated details information.
I hope i could not uninstall v2.02 since i have add and modifications in this by the help of author.
As the author told in the last post i would like to have a update package link which i could add in my fourm and run to fix and change the version to V2.04.

Thanks in Advance Author & Team.

[Eliana Tamerin]

Maybe it'd be a good idea to package your edits so that you can reapply them on every update. I can help you do that if you show me what you edited.

[Nathaniel]

@asudhakar,
You should be able to upload version 2.04 of Simple Portal to your website, and then install/update to that version, it will update your Simple Portal Version from 2.02 to 2.04, its unlikely that you have made any changes to the core features which it edits, so the update should work. If you have any problems with the updator then you can ask here.

Updating between versions, is included in each new version of the mod.
