You can't import them to xenporta block. But you can make them show up in xenporta pages. Use this in position:
EWRporta_Portal

Oh man! I got really excited when I first read that but it didn't work lol. Is there some other thing I need to do? I set the position to EWRporta_Portal and changed the order # a bunch of times but nothing.

I forgot to mention that I already got it to show up on the sidebar earlier but I cant get it in the spot I need it in. I'm trying to get the widget framework status update widget right under the online users. Reason being that it has the social share buttons.

You can read here: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/trash-xenporta-sidebar.2430/

Dont forget to change the display order value to change the position.

Oh ok. So you can kill the xenporta sidebar and use wf widgets on the sidebar and anywhere else while still using the articles etc of xenporta. But I only really want to use the wf status updates widget. I am not opposed to using wf widgets. Problem is that I cant seem to find a facebook and twitter one other than xenfacil's widget pack and I didn't really like them. Also, I am using xenatendo and the old xenporta widget for it.

This is kind of frustrating. A new version has been "Crowd Funded" but simple version updates to keep up with Xenforo are being totally ignored. Has anyone figured out how to hax the various fixes since it seems that the author does not care about the older addon now?

This doesn't really bode well for the crowd funded version support.

How to change the navi bar's name for the portal? Now the name is "home", but I actually want the forum as my home page, so I want to change the name "home" to "News". Thanks

Has anyone had the problem of blocks not showing up in the sidebar when added? It seems the add-ons i've put on after initial install of Xenporta that have blocks just won't show up (For instance Streamslive for XenRio, any of the blog blocks for better blogs, etc). Thanks!

I read the FAQ on how to make the portal my home page. It says I need to check the "Set as Index Controller" box in the settings. I just installed 1.6 and don't have this checkbox in the settings, although I see all the other options.

Are there updated instructions on how to do this? Can someone please clue me in?

When I have the xenporta recent news block to "unspecified" I can't promote threads. I'm running xenforo 1.3

I need your help. I want to use on the portal page a new <DIV>. Between <div class="pageWidth"> and <div class="pageContent">. But that should only appear on the portal page. Is that even possible? And if so, which template file should I edit?

I need some help...

I am wanting to setup my home page/news/events page so that it is more organized and efficient.
I want like smaller boxes to show more. Like maybe a 2x2 grid of larger boxes at the top. (most recent and pinned threads) then the rest listed in order down the page like normal.
or maybe My News threads along the left side, and events threads along the right side? How can I do this?

Is anyone able to edit their layout(s)? I just did a fresh install of this on 1.3 and I can't move any of the blocks around. jquery update break?

same problem here!
EDIT: I disabled all addons but xenporta and the blocks are back to move again... than I reactivated all the addons one at time and the problem didn't show up anymore...

another problem is that I just upgraded to 1.3 from 1.1 in my test board and now I can't set xenporta as index, the options are there but "Home" link to domain.com/portal/

EDIT:
SOLVED WITH THIS:

ACP -> Options -> Basic Board Information -> Set Index Page Route to portal/
