[8wayRun.Com] XenPorta (Portal)

Status
Not open for further replies.
Well its CLEARLY a permission issue... and I am so sick of teaching people how to do permissions in XenForo.

XenForo is in BETA... and I expect people to have at least some basic knowledge of how XenForo works.

Dont get me wrong, I very appreciate all you do for this community and you have put together some of the best mods available for xenforo. I have even sent you some money for the work you have done, not lots but some is better than none. I am a little dumbfounded by the treatment shown,( must be the Canadian in me, eh!), not that I expect a whole lot!
 
sorry, its at /forum/ not /forums/

Both Jaxel, when I activate the init_depencies thre is no /forum link and I'm getting redirected to the portal. Other tabs like Chat, media etc. are working except /forum.

I've tested shadab's addon on a identical test board for your portal plugin and It was working.
 
[8wayRun.Com] XenPorta (Portal) v1.2.2 CHANGELOG
  • This is a quick update to add a switch to enable/disable the index routing dependency.
  • The install file will now automatically install any module XML in the /XML/ folder.
 
Actually... I thought I did add it... and I think it should work right now...
Code:
 $fetchOptions = array(
'join' => XenForo_Model_Thread::FETCH_FORUM | XenForo_Model_Thread::FETCH_USER,
'readUserId' => $visitorID,
'postCountUserId' => $visitorID,
'permissionCombinationId' => $visitorID,
'order' => 'last_post_date',
'orderDirection' => 'desc',
'limit' => $options->EWRporta_threadcount,
);
In the code above, it clearly checks the permissions... but for some reason it doesn't work.

Is there a way to add a forum id to remove it from the list of results for the Recent Threads Module?
 
Maybe something like:

PHP:
        $threads = $this->getModelFromCache('XenForo_Model_Thread')->getThreads($conditions, $fetchOptions);
        foreach ($threads AS &$thread)
        {
                  if ($thread['node_id'] != '131')
                    {
            $thread['content_type'] = 'thread';
            $thread['content_id'] = $thread['thread_id'];
                    }
        }
 
What features? I've created a modularized system thats very easy to create your own blocks. Is there really anything left to do with this mod besides put in a switch to enable/disable the index routing?

For the portal I would say the ability to create our own layouts for the page, or even a guide on how we could edit the template to achieve this.
 
Hey Jaxel. Thanks for the Update. Works great now ;)
A Suggestion. It would be nice to have an option to change the Icons for the RecentNews Modul.
 
Maybe an addition to the first or second post, Frequently Asked Questions with their answers... easy for members to refer others back to the original post instead of having to trawl through the growing page number?

Jason... I get the frustration... but the positive side is that you have the most popular mods currently, so people are flocking to you for them! :) Could be the other end of the spectrum!

Yep, I don't believe there is much else to do with the portal, bar merely module implementations as you expand your products so they are shown on the portal page.

I think some people get confused with what a portal is vs. a CMS. This is not a CMS, it is a portal page. A portal only highlights specific elements of existing areas, it doesn't create anything new, ie. articles.
 

I updated the portal again for the third time and the admin section of the portal(module Page) is still not accessible. I have gone over the permission again for the umpteenth time, including, changing admin, super mod, and mod permission and moving the two admin accounts throughout them. It doesnt work! What I dont get is, are you wanting people with problems to just go away or uninstall you product so you dont have to deal with it?

I think that's a bit harsh... I have never had an issue with access to the modules...
Let's try this another way, do you have any user/usergroup/administrator with a "Deny" permission set? There are permissions for each of those three areas.

There are many threads explaining how permissions work in XenForo... I've even made several posts about it in just about every thread for my mods; including this one. I was hoping you would search the forums and find your answers, otherwise you'll have the same question over and over for other mods as well. But instead you send me accusatory private messages, so naturally I'm going to be a bit short with you.

*EDIT* another note... most mod writers (at least on vb.org) will outright REFUSE to give support over private messages. It only stands to piss them off.

Both admin accounts are all set to "allow" for every permission, i also did it with super mods and mods, doesnt work!

And most vb.org mod writers will respond to a post in their thread, rather than ignore them till it gets to this...... The only reason I sent you a PM was because of no response, other wise I would have bothered. ;)

[Edit add] Like I have said, your products are awesome keep up the good work!
