Oh okay. I'm trying to move away from this addon anyway since I want this: http://www.gamefreeze.net/News
That's a really cool recent news block. I'm gonna try to use my version of that with bdwidget.
same issue.Recent News Block is not working for me since updating, I imported DRE's attached XML file to revert back to the old Recent News block. Anyone else is having the problem?
Anyone done a matrix of functionality differences between XenPorta, Widget Portal, and Simple Portal?
Since the latest release of XenPorta has now removed the very functionality that I like/want the most - threads in a designated forum are auto-promoted to the portal - seems I have lost the main benefit in remaining with XenPorta and can review other possible alternatives.
The only reason I still have this installed is because the MediaRecent widget by lms does not let me configure how many videos to display separate from the actual XenMedio index page admincp options and because the RecentThreads widget for both bd widget and simbolo's bd widget portal do not display like the recent threads widget for xenporta, which was designed to look just like threads in the forum listing.Anyone done a matrix of functionality differences between XenPorta, Widget Portal, and Simple Portal?

Just extend the DiscussionThread Model to promote thread if the thread belongs to specific forums. You don't have to remove the entire functionality - this feature is the only reason I use XenPorta (or a Portal).
I agree with this too... that was an extreme thing to do...I agree there should have been an option to turn this on/off...

Jason, could you not leave the automatic news block as an optional addition via an enable / disable function, instead of removing it as you have?
The difference in work between automatic and two clicks per thread, is actually significant on busier forums.

Nope, that's right. It's manual, as of the new/latest updateWait so you are telling me I have to promote all my RSS Feeds now for the news front page? That's annoying or am I missing something.
Agreed.Hey Jaxel definitely appreciate the bug fixes and update, and at the same time can we please get the auto promote feature back as quite a lot of us use it, and as stated before if made into an optional feature that would work perfectly, more options the better.
Well since so many people complained, the auto-promote feature of the RecentNews block has been put back in. I honestly didn't think it would be that much of an issue, but people came up with many valid reasons why the feature should remain. This should also fix issues with the relative few of you who are still using the now unsupported and deprecated RecentSlider block.
There is no download... I clicked download but it said there was nothing to download.Jaxel updated [8wayRun.Com] XenPorta (Portal) with a new update entry:
1.5.8a HOTFIX

Can we disable it by ourselves to get rid of those two queries or can't this be disabled?Well since so many people complained, the auto-promote feature of the RecentNews block has been put back in.
