trying to change them settings from ACP is not working at all.

	<fieldset>
              <legend>{L_PORTAL_WOWHEROES_TITLE}</legend>
			  
		<dl>

			<dd><input maxlength="30" size="30" type="text" name="wowrealm" id="wowrealm" value="{WOWREALM}"/>
		</dl>
		<dl>
			<dt><label>{L_WOWHEROES_GUILD}:</label><br />{L_WOWHEROES_GUILD_EXPLAIN}</dt>
			<dd><input maxlength="30" size="30" type="text" name="wowguild" id="wowguild" value="{WOWGUILD}"/>
		</dl>
       
	<p class="submit-buttons">
		<input class="button1" type="submit" id="submit" name="submit" value="{L_SUBMIT}" />&nbsp;
		<input class="button2" type="reset" id="reset" name="reset" value="{L_RESET}" />
	</p>
	{S_FORM_TOKEN}
	</fieldset>
	</form>

the {WOW*****} values are set in the module file like so

Code: Select all

	public function get_template_side($module_id)
	{
		global $config, $template;

		$template->assign_vars(array(
			'WOWREGION'			=> $config['board3_wowheroesregion_' . $module_id],
			'WOWREALM'			=> $config['board3_wowheroesrealm_' . $module_id],
			'WOWGUILD'			=> $config['board3_wowheroesguild_' . $module_id],
		));

		return 'wowheroes.html';
	}

please could i get some help on this as once i've worked out what the problem is i can start converting allot of my old 1.0.6 mods over to 2.0.1[/i]

You don't need an extra HTML file for the acp settings. Just set get_template_acp() to what you need (similar to this):

Code: Select all

	public function get_template_acp($module_id)
	{
		return array(
			'title'	=> 'ACP_PORTAL_WOWHEROES_SETTINGS',
			'vars'	=> array(
				'legend1'							=> 'ACP_PORTAL_WOWHEROES_SETTINGS',
				'board3_wowheroesregion_' . $module_id					=> array('lang' => 'PORTAL_WOWHEROES_REGION',	'validate' => 'string',		'type' => 'text:15:30',	'explain' => true),
			)
		);
	}

Function get_template_side() is for the actual output in the side columns of the portal and not for the ACP (hence the name).
