Sinan, are you planing to make something like this for 2.x?

SP is currently being worked on for SMF 2.0 BETA. There's a small announcement on the SP.net site.

Thanks for the answer.

I just have to say, "I love it".  I like things simple and easy...

Hi Sinan,

First of all, thank you for this mod. I can install it flawlessly, but I do have only 1 problem about publishing article when posting. (the publish dropdown box didn't appear)

Could you help me to figure this problem?

Note that : I use custom template and other SMF translation (Thai).
I've tried to copy code from upgrade02.xml to ${sourcedir}/Post.php

Code Select Expand


// An array to hold all the attachments for this topic.
$context['current_attachments'] = array();

if (empty($topic) && (allowedTo('sp_add_article') || allowedTo('sp_moderate'))) {

require_once($sourcedir . '/Subs-SPortal.php');

$context['list_categories'] = getCategoryInfo();
}


If I add the code snippet above to Post.php, the publish article dropdown box will be appeared, but the topic didn't display on the first page as an article after I selected publish and post.

Do I have to do any additional configurations to make this functionality work?

Thanks,

Ken

SiNaN,
quick question, on the front page, under recent topics, there is an image of 2 sheets of paper (at least that's what my wife told me). What does that image do or represent? When I go over it, my screen reader just says "xx". I would like to know what it represents so I can label it for the other blind users of my site.
Thanks,
Flip

Hi SiNAN,

This is amazing. Just installed tonight.

Not sure if you remember my forum, but there are two main boards. Is there anyway to have two blocks in the middle, one showing recent topics that have replies from one board, and another block showing recent topics from the other board?

Thanks,
Mike

hey   i want my SMF to have articles from Simple Portal features but I also want my SMF forum boards to show on front how can I go about doing this.

@osataken,
If you are using Simple Portal Version 2.04, then there isn't meant to be a checkbox or dropdown box, to make the post/topic into an article. This is now down from the Admin panel or by using the "Make Article" button, on topic display.

@ke4obt,
Its the generic message icon for a topic or message. Sadly, its inbuilt into SMF, so its not that easy to change. I will try to find a solution.

@BigMike82,
Use the "Board News Block" block.

@FITE-COMMANDER,
This is not currently possible, however it should be possible with the next version of Simple Portal, that will have forum block integration. You will be able to turn off the Portal and then use Simple Portal to add blocks around your board display page. Just remember that Simple Portal is meant to be a 'Portal'.

Also, A note to all Simple Portal Users.
Remember that SimplePortal.net has been launched, you can now recieve support on our very own support forums.

You can find them by hovering over boards and looking at the URL.

That part.

@ousu,
Have you created any blocks? You need to create and enble some blocks in the Sportal Admin area, before they will show on the portal.

Thank you very much ...I will try this

How to add blocks which are not predefined:

example :Shout box
I would like to keep the shoutbox in the homepage.

I added some blocks, but for all words it is showing as dDot     Online Guests     :     20
Dot    Online Users    :    19
Dot    Hidden Users    :    0
Dot    Total Users    :    39
Dot    Online Users    :    


How can I remove the Dot before the online, hidden,total etc.....


Please assist me in this regard.

Thank you.

Is it possible to use a percentage for left/right block width?

Ooooooh I love this! I got some questions/suggestions:

1. I would like to know if I can make my board index in the center with the blocks on either side? If so how is that done (I'm thinking maybe copy the board.index.php contents to a php block?)

2. I am also having a bit of troubles adding into the html block my flashmp3 player. The player doesn't show up when I put this into the html block. 

Code Select Expand


<html>
<head>
<!-- Location of javascript. -->
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js" ></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Div that contains player. -->
<div id="player">
</div>
<!-- Script that embeds player. -->
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("flashmp3player.swf", "player", "290", "247", "9"); // Location of swf file.
so.addParam("quality", "high");
so.addVariable("content_path","mp3"); // Location of a folder with mp3 files (relative to php script).
so.addVariable("color_path","default.xml"); // Location of xml file with color settings.
so.addVariable("script_path","flashmp3player.php"); // Location of php script.
so.write("player");
</script>
</body>
</html>


3. I would also love to make a "Quick upload" box that would allow my logged in members to upload a mp3 file to the /music/mp3 directory.

4. Is there a way to add the flashchat integration mod (that says who's in the chat room) into the users online block?

This is all I can think of for now and probably since much of my questions are "how can I do this" after I understand how to do one thing I'll be able to figure out how to do the rest and any future questions too.
