How can I remove the visitor panel on the portal?

there exist serval options/plugins:

AndyB's Plugin https://xenforo.com/community/resources/remove-visitor-panel.3281/
Or you use the Widget Framework: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/bd-widget-framework.297/

Neither one of those work to remove it.

Finally got it working. Had to use the "clear contents" widget to do it.

I found the option in Extra Portal Style-Settings

I'm still searching why the page is loading so slow.
Aaand I just noticed that the CODE EVENT

load_class_route_prefix('SimplePortal_Route_public_Lpmanage', array)

is taking a while. Anything possible to speed it up?

This is great product, very well coded, nice looking, functional, and easy to use and customize. Thank You very much for your great work.

Here are few small bugs I found which you may want to fix:

1. Wrong phrase name
TEMPLATE: el_portal_inline_mod_thread_promote
THIS: {xen:phrase promote}
--TO: {xen:phrase el_portal_promote}

2. Hardcoded phrase
TEMPLATE: el_portal_create_new
THIS: <h3 class="primaryContent">Thread</h3>
--TO: <h3 class="primaryContent">{xen:phrase thread}</h3>

3. We should sort items by thread creation date
FILE: PortalItem.php
THIS: public function prepareItemOrderOptions(array &$fetchOptions, $defaultOrderSql = 'portalItem.display_order')
--TO: public function prepareItemOrderOptions(array &$fetchOptions, $defaultOrderSql = 'portalItem.content_id DESC')

Well in Extra Portal you can order the Items by portalitem-publish-date and thats the "display_order". Sorting by creation date makes only sense by automatic use in forums.

What I would like to see here is an option to promote posts to Portal. This would, however require custom titles for posts but will add nice feature to threads promotion too - ability to use custom titles.

Promote THREAD:

Promote POST:

I'll be very thankfull if you can make this. Thanks in advance.

@Dan.. @NixFifty

I would love the ability to Auto Promote threads to a specific Category.. To allow Sticky threads scenario for the Portal..

i.e. in News Mode.. Auto promote to a category thats set at 10 so anything manually assigned to a Category set at 0 will appear above it..

and the ability to go to first unread post, when clicking comments would also be a very useful addition

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Dan is no longer the author of this addon. @NixFifty has taken over this addon.

Is it possible to add the categories to the portal top navigation?

Is it possible to add the categories to the portal top navigation?

I tried inserting this in the elportal_navbar template, but no result...

                    <xen:foreach loop="$categories" value="$category">

                      <li>
                                <a href="{xen:link portal/categories, $category}"
                                   class="{xen:if "{$current_category.category_id} == {$category.category_id}",
                                'selected', ''}">{$category.title}</a>
                            {$category.item_count}
                     </li>
                    </xen:foreach>

When this addon is enabled, Thread Moderation is visible for all users when searching.

This is because of the file 'SimplePortal_Extend_Model_Thread. I have made the following patch:

I can't see Thread Moderation when logged in as non-admin member. Can you please elaborate, don't want my users to see Thread Moderation.

How do I increase the Youtube clip size on the portal/news page?

I am sorry. I forgot responding you until now.

Okay, steps to reproduce:

1. Go to search, "Search Threads and Posts".
2. Enter a search query.
3. Select "Display results as threads".
4. Hit "Search".

You should now see this:


The bug occurs even when the value is false because of the following code in "XenForo_Model_Thread":

$thread['canInlineMod'] = (count($modOptions) > 0);

You have this code:

$parentReturn['promote'] = //both when true and false

Which even though it is false, still results in the count() being greater than 0. XenForo explicitly does this:

if (/* $viewingUser has permission to X */)
{
    $modOptions['somePermission'] = true;
}

Which only adds to the array if the user has permission. If he has not, it will not be added.

Thanks a lot @Ralle

Glad to help. I use your portal on my website. It's nice and simple.

Do you plan on updating it for the flexible widget system and navigation of XF 2.0?
