XF 2.2 Custom Page

[Bob de Bouwer]

Hi,

I have made an custom page using : https://xenforo.com/community/resources/page-as-portal-homepage.5663/

Now i want to place the Siropu shoutbox on that page, but i can only place widgets in sidebar?
Is there a way to place it?

Hope someone van help me with this.
Regards
Bob

You will need to ask in the add-on thread whether it can be embedded in a page node and what the syntax would be to do so.

If it behaves like a standard XF widget, they can be added to the body of the page using the normal syntax.

So, i'm bit of a newbie with Xenforo. (always used Vbulletin 3 and 4)
So i realy don't know anything about Syntax or the behaviour of Xenforo yet.

Do you mean i ask here : https://xenforo.com/community/resources/page-as-portal-homepage.5663/

Thanks
Bob

Provided this widget can be embedded (I think it can, or at least it used to possible) :

Find the name of the widget key (top of the actual widget definition) edit this code to include it and paste into the page

<xf:widget key="name_of_key" />

I just checked, all you need do is add this to the page:

<xf:widget key="siropu_shoutbox" />

So unless things have changed and it has suddenly stopped working embedded as a widget in a page, it should be as simple as that.

Thank you all for the responses.
I have made it work
