CTA Featured Threads & Portal [Paid] 2.17.0

[DarkGizmo]

Got it! That was what was causing it. Thanks Brogan!

Is there a resource/tutorial on how to piece together the main page portal?

 

[Paul B]

Well the resource description is about as detailed as it can be.
The feature summary bullet list items link to each feature update for more details.

 

[DarkGizmo]

Figured it out, thanks!

One slight CSS question though.....is there a way to move the posted by info down a bit or something? I use @tyteen4a03 's user markup add-on and the top border of my name gets cut off...

as can be seen here: http://revillution.com/

Any ideas on how to go about fixing that? I know adjusting the line-height fixes this issue in threads but not sure where to go to fix it for your add-on.

 

[Paul B]

Everything is controlled by Style Properties, so yes.

I would recommend reading the main resource description and exploring the options and style properties which are available.

 

[DaveM]

Ok so I know this is an issue with the style that the text is on the top bar and does not format very well but any ideas where I could start looking to fix this would help.

Are you referring to the gradient image?
If so, it is set in the Background SP (blocks and page).

No it turned out that these two settings needed to be changed





So it now looks like this in both places

If you had clarified in your initial post that was what you were trying to do, I would have told you that.

I am not sure how much clearer I could have been than this https://xenforo.com/community/threads/cta-featured-threads-portal-paid.64261/page-165#post-858131

Than that?

Yes, you could have.

If you had said how do I remove the gradient background image, or how do I move the image up, or how do I move the content down, that would have been clearer.

Saying it "does not format very well" and "where I could start looking to fix this" gives absolutely no indication as to how you want to resolve it.

Oh Well as they say a picture is supposed to tell a thousand words but I suppose this time it was lost in translation possibly because of us living in different countries. Next time I will try and use the Queens English a bit better. However you know how us colonial types are we sort of lost it a bit when we moved to other countries

 

[Martok]

Queens English

Queen's English.

how would i go about disabling the hovor effect on the images to the left side?

 

[Paul B]

Do you mean the tooltip displayed above the icon?

One quick question... I recently added XenForo Media Gallery and I love the "new media" block that shows up on the forum list. I actually turned off the featured thread home portal page because I couldn't figure out how to get it there. I still have the featured threads on the forum list page and everywhere else.

How can I get that "New Media" block like the one I have here on my forum list page to show up at the top of the Featured Threads page so they can be at the top of my "portal" page?

 

[Paul B]

@Martok did a guide for that.

My guide in Resources explains how to do this.

*Edit* I've been ninja'd Brogan'd!

I have updated the FAQ and added your guides now @Martok.

@Brogan is it a realistic option to get a RSS feed for the news articles in the future? If not i need to look for a thirdparty solution.

I was wondering, the icon upload is this possible upon creating the thread to feature, or is this done afterwards(think that's how I've done it on a site I am on.) I've been thinking of getting Featured Threads for my gaming site.

 

[Paul B]

Uploading images is a subsequent step after featuring.
