I don't understand these instructions. Can you clarify what I'd edit?

Apparently, the .htaccess file doesn't show if you've got a Mac. I ended up downloading it from my server (had to remove the .) so I can manually edit it, upload it, then rename it back to .htaccess , but I need to know what to edit first.

What a hassle. Jeez! :shock:

Thanks!

You just change the directory index and add portal.php

Nevermind. I just used my PC laptop to double check & lo and behold, the .htaccess files were there. I just used that computer to upload the file instead of hand editing something I didn't understand.

Hope this helps other Mac users that are having a hard time figuring out why they don't have the .htaccess file.
You have it, you just can't play with it. Cruel, eh. :lol:

That is probably a cookie problem with your installation, check the cookie / server settings in the ACP to make sure they are correct :)

An excellent mod I might add and fairly easy to get running!

Though I was wondering what im wanting to do is have the Recent Topic tab display like the Recent News one, at the moment its setup as default in 3 columns.
Recent announcment - Recent popular topic - Recent topic
What I wish to do is remove "recent announcment" (which is spelt wrong *announcement*) and remove "recent popular topic" and just have Recent topic going across like the recent news.

Is that at all possible? I had a quick look through the files but can't really make heads or tails of it.

This is a good start, for sure. I put this on my clan site (http://www.pubplayinkillas.com/) and it's a big hit so far... The only thing that would be nice to have is an editing screen (like mxBB has for phpBB 2), so my admins can update some of the blocks without having to go into the ACP/Styles, yada, yada, yada... but once you've got it set up how you like it, there isn't a whole lot of need for that (for my purposes, anyway). It would also be nice if instead of the last new topic, it would show the last topic that someone replied to. Overall, a great mod!

I noticed a bug (not sure if it's reported). If you limit the word count on a news post and it cuts it off in the middle of a code block then the rest of the posts don't show up right.

Upload the .htaccess file
The box said 'You need Windows XP or better' .... so I installed linux.
