Clip The Apex

Post by Brogan »

We've only just installed the portal a few days ago so there's still some work to do on it but it's getting there.

We have big plans for the site so I'll post updates as and when we do them.

The portal page is here: http://www.cliptheapex.com

Can I ask how you made that nice News block? Presumably it uses several rss feeds somehow? I'd very much like something similar for my portal.

It's from here: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicinde ... roller.htm

Very easy to install and configure.

Thanks :) Where (i.e. what path) did you put the first piece of code and the js in? I'm not 100% sure....

Beautiful.
Just a pity that you don't feel to leave any sign of a credit for our work. :(

Apologies - it's still a work in progress.
I did have the original copyright/credit info' in there but it got lost when I updated the main page and copied the overall_footer across.
I plan to create a new footer just for the portal page.

However, I can't seem to get the cookie working so I may be forced to remove the portal altogether.

I've quickly updated the portal footer to credit this site.

Missed this first time around...

The code goes in the overall_header in the <head></head> section.

I've put the js files in the /template directory and amended the path as follows:

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript" src="{T_TEMPLATE_PATH}/gfeedfetcher.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{T_TEMPLATE_PATH}/gajaxscroller.js">
Then I created a custom portal html file (e.g. news.html) and put the rss specific data in and added that file to the portal_body.html file.
