Heh, that isn't much help at present

samsunghere, in your portal settings, the first one, set a forum ID to get content from.
Quote:Forum ID to pull announcements from
Please enter the forum ids (fid) of the forum(s) you wish to pull the announcements from. Separate them with a comma (,).
That will give you content on the right of the default section

You will want to edit the portal template. The things with the dollar signs are the various components that you want to move around. I don't know what the technical name for them is. Make sure that you leave them enclosed by those brackets.
{$welcome}
{$whosonline}
{$pms}
{$stats}
{$search}
{$announcements}
{$pollbox}
{$latestthreads}
Admin CP > Templates > Modify/Delete > Expand (Template Manager) > Portal Templates (Exand) > portal >
Here's one example of a portal template, below. Adjust it to suit your particular preference. I hope that it helps.
<html>
<head>
<title>{$mybb->settings['bbname']}</title>
{$headerinclude}
</head>
<body>
{$header}
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="{$theme['tablespace']}" border="0" align="center">
<tr><td valign="top" width="200">
{$welcome}
{$whosonline}
{$pms}
{$stats}
{$search}
</td>
<td valign="top">
{$announcements}
</td>
<td valign="top" width="200">
{$pollbox}
{$latestthreads}
</td>
</tr>
</table>
{$footer}
</body>
</html>
Does the Portal only works with the Default theme ? When I tried the direct link to my just installed MyBB Forum, i saw the menus on the left but not the forum on the right. It was just empty. Maybe i just dont know enough yet about MyBB. Any help ?

You need to set an "announcement" forum in
Admin CP --> Board Settings --> Change --> Portal Settings
