I want to use the one in the index template. Can you help me getting it displayed under the latest announcement?

[Psyclones]

I`m sorry my brain isnt working properly could you supply an in depth explination of what you are attempting to do.

The standard install of simpleportal has the following boxes (blocks) on the main page

Menu Block                               About Block                                         Shout Block (if enabled)

Welcome User Block                     Forum Announcement Block                Quick Search

Who`s Online Block                                                                             Links Block

Recent Posts BLock                                                                              Newest Member Block

Top Poster Block                                                                                   Top Topics Block

Top Boards Block

Is it one of these your are after or a new block.

[Byohki]

I might be a pest but I'd like to know if there's a way to display images on the portal like in links or something..

I tried regular html like:

Code Select Expand

<IMG SRC="image.gif">

Code Select Expand

<A HREF="http://www.htmlgoodies.com"><IMG SRC="homepage.gif"></A>

And some others but they all crashed the skin..

Code Select Expand


$txt['portal_24'] = '<a href="http://dev.nesian.info/">NesianDev</a>


replace urls to this format for images.

<a href="lastpage.htm"><img src="link to image" alt="Alt text in here" border="0" /></a>

WHat version smf and portal are you using?

[3-CXT]

WHat version smf and portal are you using?

i am using the normal simpleportal v1.0 version and the smf 1.1 rc1 (but why the version of smf is important for that?, just 'S changing the portal.template.php, isn't it?)

[DemonicInfluence]

yes..

find:

Code Select Expand

<table class="tborder" border="0" width="95%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4">
<tr><td class="titlebg">'.$txt['portal_8'].'</td>
</tr>
<tr><td class="windowbg2">';
include('./Blocks/PortalTopPoster.php');
PortalTopPoster();
echo '</td>
</tr></table>
<br />
<table class="tborder" border="0" width="95%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4">
<tr><td class="titlebg" colspan="3">'.$txt['portal_9'].'</td>
</tr>';
include('./Blocks/PortalTopBoards.php');
PortalTopBoards();
echo '</table>
</td>

delete that..

Find:

Code Select Expand

<br />
<table class="tborder" border="0" width="95%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4">
<tr><td class="titlebg" colspan="3">'.$txt['portal_14'].'</td>
</tr>';
include('./Blocks/PortalTopTopics.php');
PortalTopTopics();
echo '</table>

That removes the blocks u didn't want..

Where do u want to put the newest member block?

That should work. I hope.

[Byohki]
