Great to see this out. Thanks for all the hard work.

Would it be possible to build sounds into the shoutbox? If someone writes that a sound is coming.

I did put this idea in our feature requests board some time back.  There is plans to add some more features to the shoutbox  but not sure if this one of them.  That said, I agree it would be a good idea.

[Hero2019]

ok thx. 

[DarkAngel612]

YES please at least a tiny ching, beep, glass breaking to let us know there is a new shout.
Another thing about the articles....last I heard (which is why I have not gotten newer version) I think it was stated that the articles and blocks that are html/javascript may need to be redone and the original ones would not work right. Is this still that way or is that what the statement saying the blocks are now working means, no more needing to redo them from scratch?

Just turn off the editor before editing, or resaving any of your existing articles, as it might change the layout.  Newly created articles using the editor shouldn't be a problem.

I would also recommend, if there's a feature you'd like to see added to TinyPortal, then please post it over at our support site, in the "Tinyportal Feature Requests" board.  It will have a better chance of getting seen.

Hello. I have a question. Is there a special reason why the user block looks different on SMF 2.1 than 2.0? I mean the guest view with login and register. I miss that login form in the block.

[@rjen]

Can you post a link where it is missing? It works for me....

[@rjen]

Never mind: I see what you mean.

And no, that's not intentional, need to check

[lurkalot]

I'd like to see the link also, as it works for me. Shows the same as it does at the very top of SMF 2.1 when not logged in. As seen here down the left hand side, https://cctestsite.info/testsite3/index.php

"Welcome to Test Site Three. Please login or sign up."

[@rjen]

It is not the link, but the login box below that is missing.

I'll post a fix in a minute...

[@rjen]

It is bug in the template, not working quite correctly in 2.1.

I will submit a fix for TP.

In the meantime, if you are OK to fix a file yourself, apply the fix below: to TPsubs.template.php

Find:

Code Select Expand


// Otherwise they're a guest - so politely ask them to register or login.
else if(strpos($forum_version, '2.1') !== false) {
    echo '
<ul class="floatleft welcome">
<li>', sprintf($txt[$context['can_register'] ? 'welcome_guest_register' : 'welcome_guest'], $txt['guest_title'], $context['forum_name_html_safe'], $scripturl . '?action=login', 'return reqOverlayDiv(this.href, ' . JavaScriptEscape($txt['login']) . ');', $scripturl . '?action=signup'), '</li>
</ul>';
    }
    else {
echo '
<div style="line-height: 1.4em;">', $bullet , sprintf($txt['welcome_guest'], $txt['guest_title']), '<br>', $bullet2, $context['current_time'], '</div>
<form style="margin-top: 5px;" action="', $scripturl, '?action=login2" method="post" >
<input type="text" name="user" size="10" /> <input type="password" name="passwrd" size="10" /><br>
<select name="cookielength">
<option value="60">', $txt['one_hour'], '</option>
<option value="1440">', $txt['one_day'], '</option>
<option value="10080">', $txt['one_week'], '</option>
<option value="302400">', $txt['one_month'], '</option>
<option value="-1" selected="selected">', $txt['forever'], '</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="', $txt['login'], '" />
<input type="hidden" name="', $context['session_var'], '" value="', $context['session_id'], '" />
</form>
<div style="line-height: 1.4em;">', $txt['quick_login_dec'], '</div>
<br>';
}
echo '
</div>';


and replace by

// Otherwise they're a guest - so politely ask them to register or login.
else {
if(strpos($forum_version, '2.1') !== false) {
echo '
<div style="line-height: 1.4em;">', sprintf($txt[$context['can_register'] ? 'welcome_guest_register' : 'welcome_guest'], $txt['guest_title'], $context['forum_name_html_safe'], $scripturl . '?action=login', 'return reqOverlayDiv(this.href, ' . JavaScriptEscape($txt['login']) . ');', $scripturl . '?action=signup'), '<br><br>', $context['current_time'], '</div>';
}
else {
echo '
<div style="line-height: 1.4em;">', sprintf($txt['welcome_guest'], $txt['guest_title']), '<br><br>', $context['current_time'], '</div>';
}
echo '
<form style="margin-top: 5px;" action="', $scripturl, '?action=login2" method="post" >
<input type="text" name="user" size="10" class="input_text" style="max-width: 45%!important;"/> <input type="password" name="passwrd" size="10" class="input_password" style="max-width: 45%!important;"/><br>
<select name="cookielength">
<option value="60">', $txt['one_hour'], '</option>
<option value="1440">', $txt['one_day'], '</option>
<option value="10080">', $txt['one_week'], '</option>
<option value="302400">', $txt['one_month'], '</option>
<option value="-1" selected="selected">', $txt['forever'], '</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" class="button_submit" value="', $txt['login'], '" />
<input type="hidden" name="', $context['session_var'], '" value="', $context['session_id'], '" />
</form>
<div style="line-height: 1.4em;" class="middletext">', $txt['quick_login_dec'], '</div>';
}
echo '
</div>';


That works for both 2.0 and 2.1...

[lurkalot]

I'll post a fix in a minute...

Oops.  Yes I didn't even notice that was missing. Shows how often I use it. lol..

Thanks for the fix though, it can go into TP 1.6.3 

[RML]

Thanks a lot @rjen, it worked, the login box is back.

[@rjen]

You're welcome.

As you can see there may still be some small issues with 2.1 support that we have not found yet: so let us know if you run into anything else...

[RML]

There is one other thing I noticed so far, not a big problem but still... When I change the theme in the Tehemes box it takes me to the forum after the change instead of staying on the portal. ("How to redirect after login" is set to "Redirect to frontpage" if it matters.)

[RML]

Sorry, it's me again. I found another problem, shoutbox doesn't work for members. I have enabled it for all membergroups but only admin can write message for the others there is no textarea to write although they can see the shoutbox.

[lurkalot]

Go:  Admin > Members > Permissions >> Regular members > Modify.  Tick the box "Can Post Shouts" and save.

[@rjen]

Beat me to it...
