[ABD] Frontpage and folders

Unimatrix_0 · Post by **Unimatrix_0** » Sat May 01, 2010 7:03 am

Sorry if I ask questions that have been asked befor, but I have a few:

Is it posible to allow/disallow/select forums for "The 5 latest posts"?
Is it posible to allow/disallow/select forums for "The 5 latest topics"?
Might it possible to have the menu allways on the right site, even while browsing the forum?

best regards

The two first. Sure no problem. This is a must for any mod with features like this imo.

open index.php
Find

Code: Select all

$excluded_forums = array('13','16');

Replace with

Code: Select all

$excluded_forums = array('FORUM_ID','FORUM_ID2');

Please replace FORUM_ID and FORUM_ID2 with real forum ids. These forums will NOT be showed in either 5 latest topics or posts. There is no individual setting for each since i dont think most boards will need it.

Remember there is many index.php. The ones in question is the first on in the root, the second one you can edit is the one inside the history folder.

Stoker. Thanks, im working on the next version.

Without more info no. But why not use a existing page and add your stuff to that, Then all the basic functions of this mod will be there, plus the extra you add.

I haven't looked at the code, but if you have all of the folders expanded by default, and then use <body onload="yourfunctionhere()"> to collapse these when loaded with Javascript, then users without Javascript will be able to use the links.

Keep up the good work, DoYouSpeakWak.

If you wish to have it working for non javascript users (Btw as far as i know 99% of most user has it on)
Then you can use the old version. It has the same basic functions. Or you can search for the word "current" in main.html and add the current function to all the other tabs (java dropdown boxes) By doing so all the boxes will be open when you load the page.

Trust me when I tell you I have no clue how I made it this far without destroying my board.

You dont have to change the index.php, just replace the html that shows this with the html code posted by stoker. As long as you have a backup of the file nothing can go wrong.

i have thought about this, i love the idea, but its very complicated and would make this mod more complex than intended. Instead you can install a mod on the pages you want that does this. Mods like this

Hi there!

Is it possible that you can use the frontpage on

www.yourpage.com

and the forum on

www.yourpage.com/forum ?

This is a very simple mod, still in beta. So if you use a changed version of the styles in the mod there may stuff you need to tweak to get it to look good.

Yes, its not only posible, its default in this mod.

A new version will be done in max a week since this mod is a part of a new site and have to be done by then.

New stuff will be
updated java to latest version (more smooth and fast)
Template and php bugs fixed (its been slimmed down a bit so less to load)
And a few other surprises maybe

It looks good on your page. Remember you can change all the colors of the menu system and the text in the file frontpage.css

Thanks

This is what i´m doing atm: Editing the Templates/css

I have a suggetion for a Feature:

How about adding a feature, where you can post News on the Main Page (or whatever page one want to use )?

Inner Circle · Post by **Inner Circle** » Sun Jun 20, 2010 2:34 pm

You can do that yourself already with any of the pages you create for Frontpage.
