Hey guys,

I am using Gothic Rose theme and ezportal. I do not see any catagories or boards on my site. Can someone take a look. I have tried everthing to get them to show up, maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Thanks

First thing I can see is that you installed it twice... you'll have to manually uninstall it. Then, we'll go from there.

Ezportal is installed twice.
The forum looks fine just looks like either the boards/categories are hidden from guests

Yes, that does appear to be the case. I registered, and was able to see the boards.

Great Mod, just got done installing it on my new board, I am using SMF 2.0 Beta 4 and Black Rain V2 skin, everything went in with zero problems. Shoutbox looks good too, wish there was a way to add a Smiley pack to it though. :)

Planned in the future as a feature request. Supports all bbcode already though

It sure does, my members will just have to learn the BB Codes for the Smileys. ;)

Thanks for the Mod, vbgamer45, it sure is easy to use, I really am liking it.

I seem to be having an issue with the boardnews block.
I set the board that the block should be pulling posts from, but there is no content in the block.

What kind of permissions are set on that board? Anything in the error log?

EzBlocks are extremely customizable they can be created as xml files and shared with others. Supports unlimited parameters for PHP blocks. Built in webpage system. Works on any theme with out modifying the theme. Pretty much all the standard features for the other portals.

Modules coming soon to tie more components together.

Sorry newbie question here

How do i write articles ? are they pulled from a certain forum ?

Does exPortal take on the theme of the forum ? I like the fact you don't have to edit anything for it to work

Thanks

EzPortal has a built in webpage creator to create webpage for your forum.

If you need an Article System search the mod site for my article system mod.


It takes on the theme of the forum.

You would go to the EzBlock Manager to setup blocks.

You would set the visible options on the ezBlocks to the homepage.

Then make sure under ezPortal settings you have enabled the homepage feature.

Sounds easy enough

Just like that fact you don't have to edit any code to get the portal to work

Is there options built in that show users posts and whos online etc

Is there a button added to the menu bar like forum or home so members can access both easily

Sorry to be a pain your portal looks great and would be a great addition to my psychic website

{holding my tongue on the obvious comments...}

Indigo, Have you tried playing around with the available blocks?  there is  recent posts, users online, etc all built in as available blocks.

I see that there is a way to play with the width of the boxes, but I was wondering if there was a way to play with the height? I am using a default based theme, SMF 1.1.7 and a shoutbox of my own from shoutmix.com. I like their features better. Anyways, I loaded the shoutbox into a block and it has cut part of my shoutbox off. I have tried to play with the code of the shoutbox to make it smaller, but it still does it.

No way to set the height the box should expand to the size of whatever html code is inside it. Height is not a supported property for a table data html element.
