What? I tried using

Code: Select all

<!-- INCLUDE portal/block/recent.html -->
in index_body.html but it didn't work. Look at my site now. I removed the right bar and it looks nice :D Still couldn't figure out how to add the shoutbox :cry:

Hi,

you also have to include the scripts to fill the *html-template with some live.

Code: Select all

	if ($portal_config['portal_recent']) 
	{ 
		include($phpbb_root_path . 'portal/block/recent.'.$phpEx);
	}
This is only for recent, for every other block only use the script-include from portal.php.

If you want it on index you can include it in index.php at board-root. I think the best place should be after the include for the portalview-includes.
Just try it, and post the result, I didn't test it.

Code: Select all

// Add for Portalview of complete Board
include($phpbb_root_path . 'portal/includes/portalview.' . $phpEx);


It also shpould work to add it in portalview-includes, but it will include on every page, so it's not a goog idea to do so.

Regards

Dyo

well, to do this, you also have to edit the footer cause of the endinmg tags of the tables.

So do the normal edits on the overall_footer.html and than remove everything between:

Code: Select all

<!-- [+] right block area -->
and

Code: Select all

<!-- [-] right block area -->
