[PHP 7] Portal similar to ADK Portal or SimpleMachines "Home"
« on: June 25, 2018, 03:05:35 PM »
Hi,

I'm looking for a mod that would resemble the ADK Portal (only works on php 5) or the one used here:
https://www.simplemachines.org/


Do the staff of SMF share their homepage plugin?

No, because the one here is not a plugin - it physically lives outside of the forum and mostly works by using the integration hooks system and parts of SSI.php (i.e. it's custom code and has minimal nice UI for you anyway)

What's wrong with SimplePortal or TinyPortal? Fairly sure they can be configured to do what you're thinking of.

I see, I really like the idea of having SSI stuff, maybe I'll try to learn and make my own


Does simpleportal/tinyportal support php7? ADK Portal had a problem when it was using create_function, which is deprecated in php7

TP does.

create_function is deprecated in 7.2. You know what else heavily uses create_function? SMF 2.0.x...

I can't speak for ADK Portal, but I can speak somewhat for SMF.

create_function is used *extensively* in the bbcode parser, and it's only been deprecated in PHP 7.2, not even removed (it just issues a warning to tell you that it's going away). Every single SMF bbcode uses create_function in 2.0, ALL of them. This is fixed in 2.1 though.

If you were getting errors, that's likely to be a sign of more general problems in ADK Portal...
