Making Custom Blocks
Posted: 30. December 2011 01:55
I find this rather difficult. Mainly because I'm clueless... But I keep plugging.
What are the requirements for making a gallery block? I had a custom weather block that worked great (Accuweather), and accessed a user's zip code for weather. I also had a calendar block from the phpBB Calendar 0.1.0 that still worked great, even though the mod was abandoned. I can't get either of these to work in custom blocks for 2.0 beta yet.
Seems (for example) that I could make the edits I used to make in portal.php for the "next events on calendar" block that I make in the index.php file. Then I should be able to include the line <!-- INCLUDE calendar_week_on_index.html --> in that portal block, just as I did before. But it doesn't parse that kind of html code.
Any assistance on this kind of custom block would be greatly appreciated.
