Is it possible to acces me custom page from the main domain instead of the community sub domain?

I am not certain. Please give more details. Do you want a "portal" page in your main domain?

Adrek · October 05, 2011, 09:42:07 AM

I have two domains - domain1.com and domain2.com.
At domain1.com i have forum. What I need to do to have portal (standalone mode) at domain2.com ?

Angelina Belle · October 05, 2011, 10:35:00 AM

SimplePortal supports a standalone portal page anywhere within the same domain. So you can have the portal page in a different SUB domain from the forum. But SimplePortal does not support a portal in another domain.

What you can try is putting StandalonePortal.php in domain1.com.
Then, on domain2.com, put a page with an iframe to get domain1.com/StandalonePortal.php

Please tell us how that works.

I don''t know if you host supports it, but if you host allows you to park a domein, you can create a speciaal folder which contains al the files of the website. I used this system also once when I used IP.Dynamiclite and IP.Board 1.3.1

I think that I use iframes...

Code Select

<html><head><title>Title</title></head>
<frameset cols='*'>
<frame name='main' src='some_url' scrolling='auto' noresize>
<noframes>
<body>
Your browser does not support frames
</body></noframes></frameset>
</html>

Thanks

Does this do what you want?

In the future, <iframes> will better than <frames>. <frames> is supposed to be on its way out.

Adrek · October 05, 2011, 12:47:38 PM

So i have to change only <frame name='m... to <iframe name='m... ?

That's good enough. But for now i stay with htaccess and 301 to my main domain

Pretty much. Check your favorite HTML tutorial: http://w3schools.com/html/html_iframe.asp

is there a way to use different widths of portal blocks.
more specifically, i want to use 400 width blocks on portals, and 100 width blocks (left and right ) on my forum.

is it possible?

As far as I know you resize the left and right columns and whatever is left is taken up by the centre column. There is no option in the settings to have the same blocks different sizes on the portal and forum at the same time, there may be a way to do it in the files for the portal somewhere but I don't know where they are if they are there at all.

Angelina Belle · October 06, 2011, 03:12:49 PM

SimplePortal does not make that possible. Only one width.
That's an interesting suggestion, though.
Please take it to the feature requests board at SimplePortal.net

Thanks!

Hi, I'd like to change portal page title so that its different from the forum index title. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

Eg. The index.php (homepage/portal page) would be "Blastbox News & Forums" and the forum title would just stay the same.

Thanks,
Jason

Edit: Nevermind... Edited /Sources/PortalMain.php and changed the like "$context['page_title'] = $context['forumname'];" to " $context['page_title'] = 'BlastBox - TV & Entertainment News and Discussion';"

Lostprodigy, please don't bump your support requests on here when you have an active support topic on SP.net. It's much easier to find and deal with just one venue for support, so if you're on SimplePortal.net, please try to use that for support as much as possible. It's also courteous to wait a full 24 hours before bumping your request, something you need to work on both here and at SP.net. Your support requests are received, never fear, and they will always be taken care of in a timely manner.

Code Select

	{
		echo '
								<table class="sp_fullwidth">';

		foreach ($items as $item)
			echo '
									<tr>
										<td class="sp_recent_icon sp_center">
											', sp_embed_image(empty($parameters['type']) ? 'post' : 'topic'), '
										</td>
										<td class="sp_recent_subject">
											<a href="', $item['href'], '">', $item['subject'], '</a>
											', $item['new'] ? '' : '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?topic=' . $item['topic'] . '.msg' . $item['new_from'] . ';topicseen#new"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/new.gif" alt="' . $txt['new'] . '" border="0" /></a>', '<br />[', $item['board']['link'], ']', '<br />by&nbsp;', $item['poster']['link'], ',&nbsp;', $item['time'], '
										</td>
									</tr>';

		echo '
								</table>';
	}
}

If this is the code in PortalBlocks.php for the Recent Topics block, it will show

"Thread Name
[Board Name]
by Last Poster on Date/time"

I wanted it to show

"Thread Name
[Board Name]
by Topic Starter on Date/time"

My question is. How can I change the last poster ( "$item['poster']['link']" ) to the name of the topic starter?

Thanks for any help.

Do you want to show recent POSTS or recent TOPICS?

I want it to show recent TOPICS, with the TOPIC STARTER's name, instead of LAST POSTER's name.
