I installed the mod for my board III portal following the directions in install_board3.txt but I am not able to see the mod even after a cache refresh. Now, I can see it in the ACP, and I have even set some of the options. any ideas?

Thanks for converting this; I had tried my hand at it but couldn't get it to work.

Unfortunately I am in the same situation now. I'm using Board3 alongside BBdkp, choosing to use the board3 portal instead of the bbdkp default. I am using the WoWKing Style (based on Prosilver). I got the ACP module to show up, turned it on, set up a couple messages, and nothing appeared. I took out the <!-- IF S_DISPLAY_PORTAL_RECRUITMENT --> and the ENDIF from the portal_body page, and the block appears, but the data itself does not show up. Any thoughts?

The link to the zip is down right now so I can't look, when it comes back up I'll check.

(If someone reads this and checks the link and it's not down, give me a prod to remind me to come back and check.)

Disregard above post, that site has some anit-hotlinking script in place that makes the link not work. I've uploaded it to this server so it will now work.

Wee spam.

From a quick read of the files there are a lot of mentions of '$config', which Board3Portal doesn't use. We use '$portal_config'.

Go through the install file, for every time you pasted in $config change it to $portal_config.

You're gonna need to edit /portal/block/recruitment.php and change $config for $portal_config too.

Thanks! Only other issue is not getting the associated images to appear next to the class (its putting the class name next to the correct, colored class name). Directory seems to be in the right place, with correct folder permissions. Am I missing something else?

I've redone the entire package, those who have already installed will have to install it all again.

Ice, Thanks a ton for the fix. Talonos, thanks to you as well for getting this off the ground. It's precisely what I needed for that page.

No problem talanos, everyone has to start somewhere and it was pretty good for a first try. :)

Thunderspud, is that the original version or the new version?
