Might need to change your default module "Recent News" a little, as you have missed clearing the right float for each entry, so if you cut the text at only a couple hundred characters, you endup with the footer border half way up the field, ie:

No Clear.webp vs. With Clear.webp

HTML: 
<div class="messageContent">
           {xen:raw $news.messageHtml}...
            <a href="{xen:link threads, $news}">{xen:phrase continue}</a>
      </div>
      [COLOR=rgb(255, 0, 0)][B]<div style="clear:right"></div>[/B][/COLOR]
</div>
As you can see, the second image with the float cleared "per message", correctly pushes the footer border down onto the footer div.

I had been trying to MONTHS to fix this issue... looks like you figured it out for me.

I had my "clear: right" in the wrong spot. Its was actually 3 lines down from where you put it.
 
Your welcome... didn't know if you had done it intentionally or whether it was as you said... just misplaced. Easy fix.

All you ever need remember with CSS clearing, is the clear must be done below the main div you want to clear... ie. one at the end won't clear everything above.

I purposely REMOVED the edit feature on the portal because for those with fixed width forums, there isn't enough space for it.

Perhaps you can use the same approach as you did with the portal modules. <e> for example, saves another 3 characters...
 
anyone else seeing slowness with this add-on?

At times it seems to be at least 5 seconds slower than the forum page.

Yes, it is slower, though that depends on how many queries you are adding to your page uniquely based on how much you are trying to pull into the page. If you used it with nothing more than custom mods, then it would take no extra. Add dynamic mods into it, news from x forum, x forum threads, latest media, etc... it has to pull all those via another query each, thus usually slowing things down.

Doesn't matter what software you use... the more dynamic modules you pull into a page, the more queries you more often than not create for loading.

hence the purpose of the caching feature.
 
Having a problem..

I have portal 1.2.3 and media 1.2.2 installed on RC1...

I have the modules Mediarecent and Recentthreads set to show on the portal. I added a new youtube video to media and it works fine.. I see the video in both of the modules on the portal page.

When I click on the video, show in Mediarecent, the screen changes to the thread and the media plays.. If I click on the same item in recenthreads I get this server error...
Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@dieselevents.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I have fought this problem for two hours now and I am still having problems... :( Here is a link to the site I am setting up and the only video showing is the one giving me problems. http://dieselevents.com/forum/portal/ Other videos are being shown in some of the threads listed in the recentthreads.. When clicking on those the link works correctly... So far its only giving me problems when the video is listed in the media addon.

HELP :)

Jaxel,

two modules now act differently since I have gone to RC1 and the latest version of Portal. The Wiki module no longer shows the top pages. And my Members Online module doesn't show. Any ideas?

Have you checked your oudated templates? Could have something to do with it

Can you explain a litte better? I am a bit confused. (and I probably havent....)

Sure, I'm on my phone I'll do my best. In your admincp you'll have appearances menu, click that then on the menu on the left click outdated templates. Will show you all the templates that are outdated. There will be a revert button which will update tr template to the latest version available from your install of XF. I had some issues with twitter not showing and reverting the outdated templates fixed this... Just note if you have any custom edits in any of those templates you will need to readd them after reverting. Hope this makes sense, I'm in my iPhone so I'm going off my memory. Hope it all works out for you

Is there any way to limit the recent threads module to not pull from private forums?

I believe this is based on user permissions. So users without access to a part of the forum should not be able to see threads from there either. Try using a normal members account and see of they can see what they shouldn't be seeing
