[8WR] XenPorta (Portal) 1.6.0

[andrewkm]

Does it work when you check Show to selected usergroups? If not maybe checking all the usergroups including unregistered/unconfirmed.

Tried both. No luck.

 

[andrewkm]

Fixed it.

For future users with above issue you must give unregistered/unconfirmed users permission to view attachments.

In the EWRblock_RecentNews template, how do I go about getting the absolute URL for the news item? I'm adding a reddit button and it needs to use the correct URL and not the one for the recent news list.
{xen:link threads, $news} only returns the relative URL, and I haven't been able to find any documentation at all on what properties is available to use for xen:link (maybe there is an absolute one I can use instead of "threads", but I don't know)

It would be great if we could have a liquid slider image... at the moment the fixed width image looks poor on a liquid xenforo style - just leaves a huge space to the left...

Is there a mod that allows this?

link to your site?

 

[Kintaro]

is it normal that xenporta splash screen need 84 queries?

I have activated:
slider
recent discussion
recent articles
share this page (fb twitter, g+)

in the side bar:
user info
count down
facebook group
twitter feed
forum stats
events calendar

Sorry to dig up this old thread.

I've been able to import that thread and display it successfully.
However, once it's up there, how do I edit it?

I was planning to put information that changes every now and then, but it seems the modifications I make to the .xml file in that folder are ignored.

So is there any way I can edit the HTML content AFTER the add-on is imported?
thanks

[Jake Bunce]

XML files are usually imported once and then are not referred to again, so it doesn't make sense to edit the XML file. I am guessing the block is editable in the block area for XenPorta:

Admin CP -> Home -> Blocks

 

[Filetrip]

apparently that is not the case. No option allows to edit the HTML content...
I must be missing something?

 

[Melvin Garcia]

What exactly do you have in mind?

Having the possibility to give different aspects to the recentnews, customize the layout.

 

[Myke623]

When a link to a recent news post is shared to Facebook, it doesn't seem to pick up the avatar (or any attached images) for use as the thumbnail.

Can someone confirm this is the case for them too? Would love to know if there's a work-around or fix.

Hi,

can someone tell me how to change the text color on the FaceBook block? I have looked and looked, and just can't find it.

Thanks!

 

[oman]

How do you change the title and the text of the hypertext module?

Thanks

My date on articles (recent news) looks weird (No bg on the day) . Do anybody know how to fix it?

Try adding a bg via:

.recentNews .newsDate { background-color: #FFF; }

Try adding a bg via:

.recentNews .newsDate { background-color: #FFF; }

Thanks, it worked! But it's a square

I disabled for some days xenporta for performance problems, once solved I re-enabled it.
Now all my users have to clear their browser cache, if not they are redirected from mysite.com/forum to mysite.com!

XenForo is installed in the httpdoc root and the "Set as Index Controller" is activated.

.htaccess is:

#    cannot attach files, remove the "#" from the lines below.

any help would be appriciated.

Disable the Recentnews block. The Recent slider block maybe also need to be disabled.
Then you can access the portal. But if you wanna fix the blocks you need to reinstall XenPorta.
It worked for me anyway.

Thank you for your fast reply!
