Here's an example of the problem with my quick reply (it goes away when I uninstall the mod).

THIS MOD IS ONLY SHOWING TO ADMIN AND MODS, EVEN THOUGH IT IS CHECKED FOR ALL MEMBERGROUPS. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

[ysite]

None of the blocks are appearing for any membergroups but Admin.
The block settings are enabled for ALL membergroups, and only appear when the membergroups are given administrative rights  from "permission" categories. How do I get other membergroups to view the blocks without giving them the admin rights?



PLEASE HELP!
Thank you.

@ysite
   just check the  Ignore permissions  radio button  instead of all membergroups.

It's a BUG, right? All membergroups should mean... All membergroups!

Why isn't this showing up for guests?

I had the same for mine and i ticked 'one membergroup'
and it solved it

took me weeks before i realised no-one else could see it lol
everyone thought i was mad because i kept talking about these boxes that no-one else could see

It's really amazing that this great project is still going on... so many modifications have been left to die. I applaud the developer/s of this mod. Keep up the great job!

"All membergroups" means "a member must have all of the selected membergroups to be able to see it". "One membergroup" means, "a member must have at least one of the selected membergroups to be able to see it".

Edit: Fixed spelling.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, now I get it!!!!!

I think it would be better and clearly if you named:

- At least one membergroup
- All membergroups needed
- Show to all

What do you think of it? I've translated like this to my SMF already.

It's going to change in 2.4.

So there's also no fix for the damned title backgrounds being messed at the moment either? Still can't figure out the origin of my funky text size either.

Here's an example of the problem I'm having after moving the portal.css to my theme folder.

You'll need to put the new portal.css in the css/ folder of each of your themes folders.
That should fix the problem.

Yep. I did this.  Thanx!

[trekkie2444]

I put the portal.css in my /css folder, it's still screwed up.

[Angelina Belle]

Where did you find the copy of portal.css you put in those themes?
Which theme is giving you trouble?

[trekkie2444]

The Analysis RC4 theme. I put the one that was in the default theme?

Assuming that you got your portal.css from either the simple portal zip or copied from curve...

Open the portal.css in the particular themes and scroll down to the bottom and find...

Note that this section is a compatibility fix for Curve based themes. If your theme is based off of Curve this fix will cause you other issues. Only change it in themes you are having issues with on a per theme basis and NEVER in the default Curve themes portal.css.

Add this at the end of the portal.css file you copied to the css directory of your custom theme:

Code Select Expand

#sp_main h3.catbg span.left
{
margin: 0;
}

I just put that in, didn't fix anything.

So what if my theme isn't Curve based then? How do I fix it?
